Very Strange Noise Engine Noise - What is it!?!???



First time I've ever been over 100mph in the Clio yesterday. (was at Bedford Autodrome)

When in 4th gear at about 6.5k+ revs this strange noise comes out of no where. From my rubbish memory it seems to be there right on the limit of 4th gear and into 5th I think. I think it disappears once I pull off the throttle. However it could be a reduction in speed I'm not entirely sure as was focusing on the track and the fast approaching corner!!

Not the easiest thing to test and show a mechanic because of the high speeds so I got my mate to take this video.

Anyone got any ideas?? Going to show my mechanic this week.

Car felt fine, and drove fine all day. When the noise starts I couldn't feel any change in the drive, but it did make me slightly vary. Enough to not want to do it again and again etc.

Cheers
