Ha, looks like I'm guaranteed a top three nice.  Even so ... should be like 5th of 3

Anyway I'm going:

5 : @stratman3142 - mainly for all the extra folly work
3 : @Springywheel - Absolutely loved the vibe of the track, unfortunately for me the first section reminded me of the intro to "Take My Breath Away" and then I couldn't hear anything else. 

Really should be 5 points a piece, both really good.

I like the two other entries equally. So then i had to get down to the real finer points. Very close but, after much deliberation, I'll go with

5 points : @Springywheel : I like how the synth and sound effects built tension at the start. Then a good range of faster paced sounds during the race sequence.
 
3 points : @Bezzer : The piano at the start gave things an unexpected melancholy feel. Nice build with the orchestral sounds into the faster paced music for the race sequence.

So close! 

5pts @stratman3142 ;;;;;;; - I like how the metallic percussion kicks in suddenly, before being reintroduced at the end. Groovy car chase sequence. 

3 Pts @Bezzer - nice way to open things up with the gentle piano sounds. Love the percussion and accompanying synth arp during the chase. (Lol @ Take my Breath Away - it's that horrid shaker isn't it with the gated drum reverb)
