    Elevator music with distortion. Garbage no matter what your age is.

    I made it to 1 min 3secs before I turned it off. Half of that time was thinking surely they're going to turn it off.

    Great idea for a video. I don't know why they would put music that loud and obnoxious over people saying things that are worth hearing.

    I wanted to play this, with the sound off, but my computer says "Can't be played in Safety Mode".

    Can someone tell me how to get around this on a corporate computer?

    Thanks.

    I think they took the hints from the posts there and modified the music track. Still pretty horrible heavy metal junk, though.

    Yes, they must have fixed the music; it was ok and not too loud, take it from someone who thinks music peaked in '70. After watching I went out and bought a speed wrench.

    You can try to make a street car into an autocrosser or you can do a lot less work and make a race car into a great autocrosser
