Product Description
Cover your ears. It’s going to get loud, introducing, Oval Track Racing. This high-octane stock car racing library features cars of various makes, models and performance characteristics in nine divisions circling a quarter mile (.40 kilometer) oval ‘short’ track in Idaho. Pass-bys, overalls and on boards were captured from multiple perspectives inside, outside, and alongside the asphalt track with a variety of microphones and recorders.
Oval Track Racing features plenty of pass-bys captured right next to concrete retaining walls on straightaways and through turns. To give you options, these pass bys are broken out two ways. Use the ‘one shot’ sound files consisting of just one quick pass by (thank you Paul V. for this suggestion). Or choose to use the overall race/practice session consisting of multiple laps.
This meticulously crafted library also features a selection of overalls captured from high in the stands, inside the pits, from the center of the infield and outside the gates. For instance, I was able to capture 48 laps (11 minutes worth) of an 85-lap race featuring eight rumbling Big 5 Late Model cars, recorded clean and free of public address announcements, 250 feet (76 meters) outside the ‘bullring.’ The crowd cheers for the winner at the end. Onboard recordings feature the growling sounds of a Street Stock car (1975 Chevrolet Nova), both in the pits and on the track.
