My aural-appreciation module must be of a different spec to yours, Wankel. That noise leaves me cold. Actually, more than cold. I don't like it. High-revving multi-cylinder stuff is more my thing. That thumping low-frequency drone reminds me of brute force rather than impressive engineering.

This is much more beautiful.

Dopes, Dopes. I shake my head in disbelief. Cylinder-wise, eight is the magic number. 🤷‍♂️

Or zero! 🤗

I thought it sounded like a V8. Reminded me of NASCAR engine noises from movies like Days of Thunder.

So Wankel .... you must be a Facebook user?

thought you might share something more brap brap brap?..... you know, going by your username.

agree to disagree merit on both counts

Oh yes, I missed that....

I owned an RX3 at one stage in my life....I needed to check that it would do 60mph in second gear quite often.

I like every one of them! The incredible diversity of engine sounds is part of the endless fascination of racing cars for me.

Mine as well. I like a nice-sounding car as much as the next enthusiast. But that clip just left me like........ Meh.

The joy of six...


Hill climbs, kids. It's the way forward.

Once more I cast pearls before....

True story.

Sad times.

Now, if you're talking hill climbs, then there's one V8 I'll make an exception for. Georg Plasa's Judd V8 in his BMW 134. The car eventually cost him his life, but boy, what a legacy of joy he leaves for those of us who get misty-eyed at the sound of good old internal combustion. Bravo Georg.
