An electric car ride around Donington with Go Pro anyone?

A pretty wild view from an electric FIA Formula E using a Go Pro cam on the drivers visor!

    Yeah!! :D

    Not bad for an electric powered engine - other than that wind noise... Sheesh!

    I thought the wind noise on a motorbike when your going a bit saucy was bad enough :shock:

    That's because there's no engine noise :)

    I know it sounds weird, but the freeze frame looks like a video game capture.

    You know what obzen, I think you may well be on to something there mate ;)

    Must be crazy shifting through the gears with no rev sounds though - I know there's the tachometer, but even so!

    Incidentally, I can't speak for any kind of F1 car or whatever; never had the privilege - but even on a motorbike with a bastard loud exhaust & you're gunning for it.. believe me, you don't hear much else than the wind..

    Having said that, I'm sure the guy driving in the video has the best lid & ear plugs to help out :roll:
