Pretty cool!!! Love the sounds!

Yo Baby · 10-12-2011, 08:05 AM

That was fun!

JeffreyJames · 10-12-2011, 08:09 AM

Wait why doesn't my 265 Chevy engine sound like that??? Mine must be broke....

Just plain cool.

**porknbeaner** · 10-12-2011, 08:10 AM

Roadsters on a speedway. I just got to say I don't believe it gets much better than that. The cars just sounded so different 60 years ago. Makes me all quivery, and just a little jeaeous.

Thanks Friend

I don't think it is the engine that is broke. maybe you are just too broke to make it sound like that.

I still want to stuff an Offy in a '27 roadster someday, I know it will never happen but a sound bite like this inspires me to do something to become wealthy so I can do something as obscene as that.

That was neat to listen to this morning.As far as the kid's under the school desk,I remember having to do that alot when I was in school.Thanks alot for those memories.

**autobodyed** · 10-12-2011, 08:41 AM

**BStoltz** · 10-12-2011, 09:10 AM

KEITHMAN · 10-12-2011, 09:53 AM

Hahaha!!!! Seriously!!! Anyone have some specs on that Red car with the injected Chevy V8? I gotta know what's going on inside that engine!!! It sounds so rad when it's ripping across the track.

**scootermcrad** · 10-12-2011, 10:06 AM

Dammit... I need one!!!!!!!!! I could watch that over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and... ok. I'm done.

sammamishsam · 10-12-2011, 10:08 AM

That was a flashback for sure. Remember when the Indy 500 was on the radio on Memorial Day Monday and they'd follow the leader around the track through all the turns on the final lap? Back before rear engines and ground effects and computers.

**treb11** · 10-12-2011, 10:13 AM

I think a set of Firestone Indy specials and Halibrands would look sick on my project. Hmmmm.... Where are they getting those anyway? Coker?

plhildy · 10-12-2011, 10:35 AM

Wow, Chills, just love the sound of a "real" engine at full song! As affective as Beethoven. (No not the damn dog)
