Imagine how the freeways used to sound like in 1972

Back with many 3.55 / 3.91 / 4.10 cars and no OD and 75 mph plus speeds.

Today I'm coasting a good 75 and along the way a couple of new sport cars start forming a pact, 2 vettes join in and one dude opened it up. From the dead silence just about you hear this little noise about 100 feet away and it past 2 cars and became dead silence again, lol

My exit was coming up and I watched them slowly fade away peacefully.


What happen to the freeway roar ? Only the motorbikes make them now. Us younger dudes missed out on some great times I bet. 3--4 hot loud muscle cars flying down the freeways no OD. Traffic hearing you coming and cars moving over or picking up speed.

No wounder "Highway Star" was a hit tune back then, like remote control, lol No, it was more like the roar could be heard a mile away.
