The demonstration 'race' for Eurocar V8s at Brands Hatch back in the 90s.
Unfortunately they worked out that perhaps they made too much noise and were silenced before the series proper started. |

Very little compares to the V16 BRM from the early 50's.

Ferrari 312PB. The flat 12 Ferrari engined sports and single seaters sound fabulous.
Matra's V12 definitely worth a mention too. |

Well with a name like mine its little wonder that NASCAR is music to my ears... Not so much at full chat as nice as that sounds its the slowing into the turns when you can hear a hint of overrun and the transmission working away.. The SCSA at Rockingham was great for that too.
F1, Ferrari's, Group C Jaguars .. yeah all pretty good but in terms of ultimate noise, fury, volume and pitch nothing I have heard is near the Toyota powered Champcars when they were at Rockingham .. wow they were ear shattering!! |

The sound in between the five-second board being shown and the lights going out on a full grid of Formula Libres... when the revs are up, there's no better sound!! A Metro 6R4 is right up there too, as is the wail of the Ferrari V12 as you already mentioned.

I know it is not a race machine as such (rallycar), but for me it is the sound of the Peugeot 306 Maxi Kit Car.
