You can control the shots and the source of the sound (engine or exhaust). The video even tells you wat gear thecar is in in real time.

Dunno if its posted before. Anyway this is to redeem myself from my previous post (NFS4 knows what i'm tlaking about...hehe)

At the northwestern corner of the track, the driver downshifts into first. This surprised me. I thought that was a big no-no. (I never do that unless I'm under 5mph or so.)

As long as you double-clutch it's no different than any other downshift. The first gear synchro is generally the weakest one, which is why that is usually recommended against. I've downshifted into first at 15-20 mph a couple of times.

Most cars don't allow that (altho I know Porsche does). I know in a 240SX, you can't downshift into 1st unless your moving really really slow. It blocks out the gear.
