This guy is criminally underrated compared to the quality of his videos, it looks like a movie but was made by one person/crew, kudos

[goshbaby]

The M1 pro car is one of the best sounding race cars ever made

It blows my mind that we get to see content like this for free.

Just fell asleep to this and woke up in a new Bugatti, thanks Robbert!

I love how he meticulously checks that the brakes do indeed work shortly before each big braking zone.

Truly the most breathtaking onboards in the world - forever in awe Robbert!

BMW was cooking up something special in the 70s/80s

I don't know what microphone(s) is(are) used, but for having listened to a lot of professionally recorded audio of inboards, this has the best clarity, frequency balance and overall audio fidelity, better than 99.999% of the content you can find on youtube usually.

Hard to put into words but the way the sound is recorded it sounds different than most car videos and you really feel like you’re there. Thanks for another one Robbert

I will never forget hearing an m1 and a 3.0csl whailing off the hills in Schenley Park in Pittsburgh many years ago at the PVGP. The best sounds ever! Second place goes to the 458 echoing off Baltimore high rises at the Grand Prix. 9krpm FTWs!

One of the best sounding 6-cylinder engines ever.
Great video!

[tmolne]

I think this is actually the first car video i've put in my music playlist. Absolutely incredible

[casefcs]

Never thought I'd get to ride along in an M1. You're the best Robbert, keep up the great work!

[jasonh.]

Thank you Mrs Benz for taking that first car trip, we may not have been where we are today without you. 🚙

[Payntr]

Came here for the incredible sound, stayed for the exquisite driving experience.

[ethon]

Love the sound of Procar in the morning, Thanks Robbert

[benjamindouglas]

You have very quickly become the best car channel on YouTube.

Perrrrfect sound, i will never get bored to this. Long live M30/M49/M88/S38 family!

I trawled around the european GP rounds in my youth in '79. Can you imagine what a grid full of them sounded like? A veritable racket of banshees. Loved the M1 from the first moment and these cars en masse were an unbelievable sight and with GP drivers at the wheel and not just the fastest 5 in the works cars. Those guys really gave them the gun. One of the few times you see GP drivers in the same equipment doing their stuff and there wasn't much between them a lot of the time. It's great they are still out there. Takes me

3:00 that outboard shot flying by on the main straight is just eargasm (with exhaust flame for cherry on top 🤌🏽)
