Easily this beauty :~

I saw this machine ridden in anger by the great S.M.B. Hailwood over forty years ago.

Sounds even better today :~

I think I like this one best of all, very closely followed by the 599 GTO.

We won't hear the likes of this again in F1, more's the pity.

The sound of a Ford 429 with an overly hot cam and a 850 DP pushed from 1500 rpm to just past the red line. As Topgears says a fizzing sensation in the base of my penis. smile

You can`t beat the sound of a con rod making a bid for freedom out the side of the crankcase.

Having hung around historic racers since I was tiny (and that was sadly a considerable time ago), I agree - it's the most amazingly spine chilling noise that humankind has ever made - incredible when it was running properly. I've seen and heard them in real life more than a few times, but what really sticks is a flexidisc 45rpm my dad had as a freebie in maybe the late 70's (when I was around 7 yrs old) - had one hell of an impact!
