    997 with PDK spotted at Nurburgring? (video)

    Listen for yourself, the gearchange in question happens at 0:20 in the video.

    (There are lots of other interesting cars in this video as well)

    Takeaways:
    I don't know how the HELL you hear a gearchange. I didn't hear a thing. I think you were imagining it.

    The new Merc SLR replacement is going to be a beast.

    The 7-Series update was taking turns like a super car. I really think they have the best active suspension in the business.

    The M3 cornered like it was on rails and sounded like pure ssin! I want one.

    That little blue hatchback need more suspension refinement.

    The Cayenne looks much better after it's refinements.

    Great video. Gear change is definitely not manual...way too fast.

    I hear it! No pause or let off of throttle at all. I think I hear a little "click" as well, and a dip in freaquency indicating change of gear. It's hard to pick out because of the doppler shift as the car passes. It doesn't sound like the driver needed to shift at that point either - perhaps he is testing the feature out.

    click on "watch video in external player" and wait until the video loads completely - then you can click on the progress indicator to keep looping the video around that point. You'll hear it.

    I hope you're right - nice catch!

    This is not a turbo/gt2/gt3 either - this is a carrera!

    Doppler shift?

    I thought it was called a Doppelkupplungsgetriebe, not Doppler.....

    Oh, forget it.

    funny! he means how the pitch decreases as the car passes because of the sound waves effectivly getting longer.

    Oh, he meant the Doppler effect named after the 19th century physicist Herr Christian Doppler!

    Thanks for telling me.

    I heard that little click, but I think this was just the hall and not a gear change. Woudnt see the need for a gear change in this position of the track anyway.

    Kind of impressive what cars are on the Ring.

    What SL has this been, was looking very impressive?

    Wow - loads of cool cars in there. Even a Alfa 8C! Sounds the best out of the bunch!

    Great find - thanks for posting.

    Oh, I could only hear the ants farting - not the PDK...
