RE: Ronin (foley artists)



well, i've heard an s8 being driven in anger, and had herr w rohrl drive me
around a circuit in one.  ok, he drove me around a few hot laps, and they
had to pry me kicking and screaming from the front seat afterwards.....

doesn't sound much like a chebby rumble.  more high revving, and quiet, a
bit like the rs2 at 7k rpm.  clearly though, a well sorted, fast limo...
