Hey, don't get me wrong now. I love a V8 as much as the next petrol head.
Its just that I needed some ammunition for my Aston verses Corvette mudslinging match !

That's because they need 12 to try to keep up with 8. ...and their tinbox whine sounds weak compared to the macho rumble of the Chevy 8 (Corvette) or even the Ford 8 (Saleen). But I must admit, they all sound fabulous in their own way, including the sixes from Porsche. I just wish I could have heard the 917 12's, they really must have been something. Film and tape audio on TV and audio systems just couldn't do it justice.

aaarrrrrgggggg. It's a blooming truck engine...but....in it's day, it did rule. I remember when the 'vettes were just begining to reach parity in at Texas Motor Speedway a few years ago. Vipers had been whipping their fannies until then.

The following text and picture posted on behalf of johnevans3 (not me). "NOTICE: To all Aston Martin fans, behold the driver, Johnny O' with me (John Evans) who is going to show the "Asston's" what a yellow Corvette's "asston" looks like as they see him speed away for the win. Just brings tears to your eyes don't it? " John |

I guess it doesn't have to be Red Bull after all. Can you get Bud Light in France ?  |
