It ran great wide open as you could hear a couple of times in the video. The fact is, this is a high-strung race car that does not belong on the street. Our video didn't really do it justice. It's made to go flat-out lap after lap, not putt around town.

I used to run a FJ engined Frogeye back in the 70"s, with 13/1 cr and a 649. On big SU's it cleared it's throat around 3500 and would run cleanly to 8000. But off cam it was still quite drivable, and put up with London traffic without much complaint. Strangely enough I remember going out to get some milk and seeing a Speedwell GT parked up on the Kings Road (this was in 1975) a very rare sighting since they only made about 25. Crikey that almost 50 years ago.

thank you. since many of our cars are sold at auction online, we make an effort to capture video/audio that is most representative of the driving experience a new owner can expect.

Not sure, as this video is 3 years old now and the car is long-gone, but you can check out the original listing here to find out everything we knew about this car: fantasyjunction.com/sold/1956-chevrolet-corvette/overview

It brought me joy to get to do a BaT drive video in a Miata! Such fun! I have a trackday-prepped NA at home, experiencing a totally stock one is wild.

Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it.

Hi Scott, so glad you're enjoying your Duetto! You're welcome to reach out to us with questions at [email protected]. You'll get Bruce by contacting that address, who will be happy to help.

Thank you. Actually as a GT1 car this is a tube frame race car with a fiberglass body, so you can make it look like whatever car you want. The chassis itself is from '89 and originally had the correct camaro body for that generation, but was updated later by a previous owner. Another good example of this is some of the Nissans that have raced in GT3... The 240SX S13, 240SX S14, and 350Z bodies were all raced in GT3, all on the same frames with either an L24, KA24E, or KA24DE engine, different restrictor sizes respectively.

Yes! T'was!

I don't know off the top of my head, but here's a link to the full listing we had for this car. It looks like we sold it before we got a chance to write a completed listing of our own, but you'll find a plethora of photos and a link to an even older listing that may contain the history you're interested in. Good luck! fantasyjunction.com/sold/1962-austin-healey-3000-bn7-mark-ii/overview

hahahaha

Thanks for asking. Our sound capturing setup has evolved over the years, but as of the making of this particular video we were using what we still use today. A digital multi-track recording unit with 2 mics. We use drum mics to be specific, since they have a very high max SPL (made to listen to loud noises!). One mic on the outside near the exhaust, and one mic on the inside to capture a fuller sound, and interior queues like the click of a gated shifter, etc. We synchronize these with the video in post-production. Hope you enjoy! PS - we don't run this advanced setup on all cars, just the ones with a worthy rumble like this Ghibli!

@@fantasyjunction1 very cool, thanks for sharing 👍

Gracias. Estoy de acuerdo. Ya hay uno a la venta, aquí te dejo el enlace. Déjame saber si estás interesado. fantasyjunction.com/inventory/1956-jaguar-xk140-drop-head-coupe/overview

@@fantasyjunction1 No amigo, gracias)), todavía no hay dinero. Huí de la guerra a España. Por ahora tengo que trabajar mucho.

よくわかりません

You bet!

Glad you enjoyed it

Would've been a great choice, this car was a delight to drive!

22k miles, sport chrono package, tubi style exhaust, Carrera S wheels. Here's a link to the full listing from when it was sold back in January of 2023. bringatrailer.com/listing/2006-porsche-cayman-s-169/

I knew that . Pity most of his own cars didn't do too well.

That is correct! Good one!

Grazie

This is the stock exhaust, but with an external microphone embellishing the sound

Could be catching the person in last

@321goingIN is correct, the driver you see ahead is a lap down. Notice the closing speed.

The watch being worn by the driver in this video is a 1977 Omega Megaquartz

You are right in the ballpark. Great guess!

@@fantasyjunction1 I paid 1.7m for mine in Austria almost four years ago. I just allowed a bit extra for inflation.

Yup, you guessed it.
