very cool im a big fan of using soundclips!Great theme building up the excitement of the race then a wonderful pedal to the metal downtuned riff - can just see this playing over the preparations and high speed racing. Gripping stuff.Powerful stuff! Awesome soundtrack!!This baby captures the feel, tension, drama, and danger of the McQueen classic, wonderful work Michael, love it!STEVE IS SMILING WITH THE EXPERT SPEED AND EXCITEMENT THIS HAS! W O W !! :):):)Brilliant! The voice clips add to the atmosphere. I've stood in the stands at many a race meeting and this track fits the drama and tension perfectly. Blown away by the sound quality and mixing/production. Nailed it!!Well motor racing is one of interests from a kid. Remember watching the movie way back and this would definitely fit in, no problem. Tremendous tension filled track!Fantastic challenge entry Michael - McQueen was a suspenseful actor, and so is this tune!Rev it up...voice clips worked well here too!The score really suits the pre-race tension. Well placed audio clips, great blending of instruments. Excuse me, I think I have to go add a movie to my queue...
Beautiful Soundtrack. Great details and recitations. Fantastic music you have played.
