wow, this is just amazing!!! listen closley at 1:16 and listen too it echo! it always gives me goosebumps no matter what, and also a tear to my eye. This is just fantastic :)
@QueWaNe : Horsepower was rated to 12,000rpm although it was said that 14k was possible. This is the motor that God would have built, if He'd had the inclination.
I wonder what would happen if mysteriously, a brain suddenly appeared in risteilyvalas head, would his body overload and explode with the pressure of any IQ?
i clearly remember about 30 odd years ago buying an English 'classic&sportscar' magazine with a black Miura on the front cover and in it was... a floppy single of this very V16 soundtrack!
The V16- engine sounds a little bit smarter. I think this is the H16- engine. But at least it doesn't matter. This sound is from outer space! I've got goose bumps on my skin, when i listen to this indescribably sound!
@shyduka - are you sure? This definitely sounds like a "double v8" to me. I've difficulty imagining such sweet sounds from a boxer... Anyway the sound is awesome. I keep returning to listening to it all the time.
Just incase anybody is interrested, the text at the engine picture, basicly describes that it was very complicated, with a 2 stage centrifugal compressor ( seen at the front of the engine, down to the left ) that drive went from the crankshaft-"middle", thrue a thin shaft, to a "cog-transmission" that then geared it up to x3.25 of the engines RPM's. (later on x4)
And sorry for the english. I only know car-parts in Danish so, i just translated it like we write it. Like "cog-transmission" :)
I believe that the problem lies with the magneto's and that running such high boost there is no one left from those times who can actually time the engine correctly.Lots of trial and error but awsome!
I used to have this on a CD in my van and play it a full volume in traffic jams......fantastic reaction from drivers spilling coffee and dropping fags and powder cases!
@shudyka Hi. The sound recording is from the CD by Nick Mason, that was part of the book "Into The Red". And in that book, he tells that it is a V16 BRM Mk 2 from 1953 (not 1951 as I wrote in the description).
When I die and go to heaven, I don't want no choirs of angels. I want choirs of BRM Mk 2 V16's!
