Antilag gives me a Woody! It's not the sexiest sound, but I love the rawness of it. Makes children cry and adults run for cover.

+1 on everything said here. Boingggggg

The video doesn't do the sound justice....you wouldn't belive what it was like to watch, hear Alesi and Berger spank the 412. I would liken it to a moving symphony of 40 trumpets on full song.

Belive it or not other other F1 drivers would take time to listen at various point on the track....my favourite spot was the flimsy bridge right over the main straight. The V12 would come right through your chest cavity.

Sadly a year or so later the V12s were gone

There is no symphony better than a racetrack full of Porsches.

As you can imagine it sounded even more awesome in person as opposed to the cell phone recording.

Check out the 1:00 minute mark.

The last Mustang I built was a '68 GT Convertible. 302 w/351 heads and ITB's. With the Shelby headers it just sounded incredible. Like a loud pissed off growl. But agreed, a track full of air cooled screaming Porches... That's a symphony!

And there is no symphony(?) worse than a track full of unmuffled Mazda RX-8's. :barf:
At WOT, that's the worst sounding car ever. YICK.
