I’ll see your GT and raise you a Mercedes NA v12 with equal length “F1” headers.

ETA YouTube link it makes sense that it would sound good as it’s basically the setup of a Pagani. I believe the headers are $12k. An S220 is about $20k.

An SBC with 180 degree headers sounds badass.

That video with the F1 exhaust reminds of the dude that was staying in downtown Baton Rouge with the McLaren. He woke up at 3am and could hear his car racing around the block. Came downstairs and the valets were taking turns zipping around in his ride.

I think the valets got arrested on that one. It was in the paper.

The best road car exhaust sound in person was a guy that used to come to the west coast Porsche track days. He had a Carrera GT with test pipes and muffler delete (so straight pipes). It was glorious. We were at Laguna Seca and he only got one lap in because he didn't back off near the soundcheck booth and got black flagged.

I wonder if Betty is still working the sound booth.

That dude on the CBR either isn't worth a damn or just isn't trying. I would have smoked that car on my old Hayabusa. Gimme something light and nimble like a ZX10 and I'd disappear in the distance even quicker on that road in those traffic conditions. Done it too many times to count. Anybody that's ridden a big bore sport bike is laughing at anyone that thinks that CBR rider was trying hard, whether they were scared of the bike or just didn't give a shite about the car.

V10's have a very distinctive sound.

Agree, almost no lean angle on the turn. Straight line queen or just barely cruising. Speeds like that on that bike feel much slower compared to the car.

BMW driver will probably kill someone in the future driving like that.

They sound great up to the mid-range but get anemic on the top end because the primaries have to be so long. Of course, the answer is to build a FPC engine so the cylinders are actually firing at 180 degrees and then you can get the 8K plus wail that FPC engines are so well known for.

Building a low maintenance track car that will have them just for the sound. Won't spin it over 6500 or so but it'll sound like ten grand. Just for fun so not worried about getting every last bit of power out of it but it'll have enough to hit 140 at RA.
