I kinda like the sound of this. Have to say though, it sounds better in real life.

Bye the way I mean the old Rover but the pickup has now got a V8 as well.

Thats not bad, but listen to the merc at 32seconds in the distance, it would sound crap in a muscle car but in a pure racer it's unbeatable, burbles are ten a penny

Andrew- Merc SLS is awesome, I was lucky enough to hear it about 15 yards infront of me at the Grand Prix several times last weekend

Mike I thought you were a big block man!!! V16 sounds wicked, not sure why the video is in slow mo tho!

This also is one of my favourite V8 sounds.

Though it is also demonstrates why ganging 8 slide carbs together is not necessarily the best idea on the planet!

Steve Greens Cortina, always sounded like 10,000 rpm due to the fancy exhaust system, was really only around 7. Other than that any blown small block chevy in comp eliminator. 10-11,000 rpm through the lights with the blower screaming over the top, wonderful!!!
