Thanks,
I guess the guy who sold it to me was either stone deaf (in which case I'm not surprised) or lived beside a motorway...
I was just turning it on in a quiet office.
Still, have to admit it sounds great!

I have the volume way up for Ir battleing, you end up driving the tank 10 meters away from you most of the time. The motor sound changes with the amount of damage you get. When my m26 "motor" starts "missing", I know I only have a couple hits left. I used to be able to tell by speed but after I put in the big motors and wheel bearings, its harder to tell as speed does not drop off so fast.
