New video - Onboard F80 M3 endurance testing on the Ring

BIMMERPOST
     Featured on BIMMERPOST.com
Latest video released from BMW M.

Nice onboard engine sound The info on the m-Power.com website explains that DSC was switched off and that this was an inside look into the development process two years ago.



Also some great pictures and test info on the the BMW M-Power site:

They're just now releasing a video from September 2012 in 2014? Weird. Driver wasn't really pushing it at all.

Endurance testing... Not setting the fastest lap time...

But, you can still see a few places where the rear end breaks loose and tire squeals under braking

It probably is partially from the speakers, unless it was too early in development for them to have that feature enabled. This would also explain why it sounds good inside the car but no so much from outside.

Definitely sounds better than other vids. I like how smooth it is. But man does it sound just like another bmw 6, nothing too special.

Funny how this video gets released like an hour after the revving video is released and receives a bunch of criticism. I feel like I'm being watched.

Sounds really good, but I have a feeling that car had minimal sound deadening. I hear a lot of stones hitting the chassis.

It certainly seems like the sound is coming from the cabin, so yes it would be from the speakers.

Ha, noticed that too.

Too bad everyone on the street doesn't get enhanced fake engine noise as well.

Right? Also would there even be active sound two years ago on a test mule? Just trying to be optimistic. Also there been no official way to cut off the sound without cutting the rest of the audio correct?

Alright Aryton Senna, I'm willing to bet that you couldn't drive 3/4s as good as what's done in that clip.
