Engine Sounds & Power We Like

[Charlie747]

Just thought that the interest shown in the sound of F1 by Bryn could be a regular open ended thread so allowing me or anyone else to not fall foul of the  police ..............so if anyone has a favourite motor here's were to post it..............

Getting us started is Kall's next company van thingy truck with 1400bhp and a pants pulling 4278lbs/ft. of torque (remember a GTR has 100lbs/ft.)

For officers of the law  you need to tick the box marked black smoke on the GV9

For fans of the RR Merlin a start up and fly by in a P51D..............a plane manufactured to British specifications and originally  fitted with an Allison motor that limited this fine airframe to low altitude work the plane only obtaining iconic status equal to the Spitfire with the arrival of the P51D model and the fitment of RR Merlin power plant

The RR Griffin followed the Merlin with bigger power potential and a deeper but similar sound track fitted to a Firefly in this case

As F1 motors go it takes a lot to beat 1500cc V16 600bhp and tiny tyres

I thought the ZZ Top beard would be plucked from his face 

But your old Monaro sounded better

Many thanks for the vids posted there  some emotional and evocative sounds there.

I remember many moons ago travelling along the boring A17 one summers day on my zzr11 with my now ex-wife as pillion, we heard the noise then looked up and the Battle of Britain flight was overhead so low we could read the markings  , she waved and the Lancaster dipped it's wings  a very special moment indeed.

But your old Monaro sounded better   

Really missing 400lbs/ft. of torque
