Motorsport is like sex. You could take it to track and have a long, enjoyable session, or you could take it to the strip and get it over with in less than 20 seconds.

Who put the depressed goat in the exhaust?

It's one thing I hate about my V6 twin turbo. Although it puts out silly HP it sounds so pathetic in doing so! In all honesty I'd prefer less HP but the sound of a flat plane crank V8. Nobody wants an asphmatic goat huffing in thier ear while trying to beat the piss out of things.

There was a Valiant Charger which I am pretty sure runs a seriously hotted up NA one of these which sounded all kinds of ear piercingly aweful that used to race at the drags, I'd take the music of an S20 or a hot L28 over them any day of the week - but it went like hell!
