I love the sound of a 2 stroke motorcross bike screaming tro the gears

 

But The sound of a 1000 of them at the start of the Weston Super Mere beach race is of the ricktor scale

I'd love to hear the Rover V8 in my 1948 Austin 16 but the pesky thing won't work at the mo!

Ford FE big block v8. 390 (6.4 litre) and 428 (7 litre), the sound gives me goosebumps.

Indeed. That top-end sound is very Stork-Werkspoor. The 8 makes the same music. But it's the audible muscle in the exhaust which is simply breathtaking.

 

Near as damn it the same video; a touch clearer.

 

I need to get to Newlyn for a fix.
