Well, it was inspired by this, which I saw win the race. They sound incredible.

Yeah, I still protest the 4 rotor engine is the best sounding engine in the world!

I also saw the 787B win at Le Mans.

The bloody thing kept me awake all night, and if you got close enought to it when it was at full chat, the noise made you feel physically sick!

I was there too - remember them testing it on the airstrip at 2am?

It is rather 'distinctive'.

Still the best noise is the CanAm Chapparral - it's like a bloody earthquake.
