(Sub-par) Alfa Romeo GTV6 engine sound video

I filmed this last Saturday.

It gives you some idea of the wonderful sound of the Alfa V6 engine, though the sound quality on this recording isn’t great, to be honest. I’d also like to replace the exhaust for a throatier aftermarket unit in time. It’s nice, but there’s room for improvement.

The video was recorded with my HD Hero2 camera. The cases on the new Hero cameras don’t have the best sound qualities. I’ll try and do another one with my Rode microphone into another source.

Anyway, limited as it is, hopefully this will give you an idea of the Alfa V6 sound.

Space Monkey celebrates Alfa registration

The Alfa GTV6 is now registered and road legal here in Tasmania. WooHoo!

Next challenge – to grind away a few centimetres from the top of our driveway to stop it scraping. The cutting wheel has been purchased. Now all we need is some time and some dry weather.

While we wait, here’s a space monkey sent aloft by Aussie band, Skipping Girl Vinegar (good band names appear to be getting harder to find). They’re not the first to gaffa tape a video camera to a weather balloon, but they’ve got some of the best results, I think.

Nice song, too.
