Hey Chuck, maybe you could record John's car,
then install a 50000 watt boom system like all
these young guys out on the streets do, then,
each time you make a run, play the recording at
high enough volume so that you sound like a
'real' car and drown out the bumble bees. ha ha.
Actually, I like the sound of your car!
Unfortunately, I guess the birds do too!
