I watched on my home THX system. What a buzz kill. They sound like bloody pickup trucks. It's actually better watching with the sound off to silence the cars and commentary on NBC although I like Hobbs. My neighbor, who is more interested in martial arts than auto competitions, thought they sounded like lawnmowers.

Maybe P2 will be better, but I'll record it and watch tomorrow...maybe.

Glad you're enjoying the weather.
