Mazda 787b

In honour of the 20th anniversary of Mazda winning the 24hr Le Mans race, here's a short of clip of what is in my opinion THE best sounding engine ever, the 26B in the Mazda 787b racecar;

YES YES YES!! Mad Mike's is baller but aint got nothing on this. Another demonstration of motorsport governing bodies chopping and changing the rules to stop a car from dominating.

Music to my ears, I used to have a sound clip of it on my ipod.

I don't think it was banned for potentially dominating more to stop the other more wealthier competitors from complaining.

Doesnt even really sound much like a rotary and it revs so smooth. Very nice

Hmmm, i'd love to slot 1 of those 26j's between the rails of my 1300

Theres a couple of kits around like this one. Its a shame everything rotary related is so dear though.

Best sounding engine ever, i dunno, i reckon a straight piped Porsche Carrera GT sounds better.

Makes my spine tingle
