It wasn't easy making this TOP 5, because I love all GT1 cars. It was my favorite racing series ever. Some GT1 cars from the 1990's are missing, because I haven't filmed them (yet). Just outside my TOP 5 are the Ferrari 550 GTS, Panoz Esperante GTR-1, Viper GTS-R and Maserati MC12.

[@iDropPhats]

The thing is absolutely deafening if you hear it in real life. It’s not even just the sound you hear though, it sends vibrations through your bones and it’s something you just have to experience for yourself, there’s nothing else like it. The only other car I can compare it to is the corvette L88, that car is so incredibly loud that if you’re trackside, it’ll leave your ears ringing for a minute or two after a flat out flyby even with proper ear protection.

[@supernotquiteman]

Those V8 sounds really come across best in real life. Especially the Corvette, you can actually feel the rumble when it’s driving past you!

[@2Skills4u]

You feel the rumble of every GT car go past you lol, I went to the 24h of Spa in 2009 and everytime the cars went by your stomach would have butterflies in them

If you’ve never experienced the sound of the Vette live you really have no idea just how brutally loud they are. The v-12s have a wonderfully musical tone that is indeed a pleasure to hear, but if you want to hear raw unabated mind numbing power, the Vette delivers in spades. Hint: bring some ear protection.

[@pauljeitler7678]

@@ryanc00p3r3 wtf are you talking about... Yes LS7 (not the LS7R seen here) and LSX454 are very similiar to one another. The LS7 is an aluminium block (like all the actual LS engines) and the LSXs are iron block with forged rotating assembly if I recall correctly. Also the LS7 comes with dry sump lubrication, the LSX i'm not sure. And ALL LS engines are cross plane crank NOT flat plane crank! First ever flat plane crank V8 Chevy built is the one in the brand new Corvette C8.R! The road car still comes with a push rod cross plane crank V8 (LT2) and the upcoming C8 Z06 will PROBABLY get a C8.R inspired flat plane as well.

[@OhItsThat]

After watching this I just can’t fathom what motorsports will be when the cars are electric. As a fan and a spectator isn’t watching motorsports, even on TV about more then just competition and who’s winning? In my mind it’s a symphony of beauty, sound, smell and speed. You take any one of those away and it’s no longer a symphony. It’s no longer hitting on all those senses. No electric car in the world could be me feel the way I felt while watching this video.

[@Red_Beard2798]

They still have what I refer to as "legacy" races depending on the country and league (in this context, I mean that they bring out older cars for the smaller, initial races before main events), so those sensations will be satisfied still, they just won't be the main event unfortunately. Unless they either find a power source as effective as electric but still produces a heavenly noise *or* they find a way to replicate or create decent sound from electric cars

[@rockerbauer]

Very nice, the world is sadly lacking those noises nowadays.

[@iDropPhats]

I remember seeing the c6r at spa and my god videos cannot do it justice, the thing is just so loud down the straights it feels like it’ll nearly blow out your eardrums! The Matech GT might be the only car of this list that’s noticeably on par (maybe louder?) with the noise the c6r makes, it’s just a more defined roar rather than a big low pitched grumble.

[@ghabi_martisho]

Couldn't be more true, i remember watching it blast down in yas marina circuit in 2010 and it really felt like your eardrums will blast. That feeling will never be felt again ever i doubt it..

[@iDropPhats]

@@ghabi_martisho The motor is a mini version of a top fuel engine. They emit some of the same frequencies, that’s why you can “feel” the sound

Mr. Blonde funny you should say that because the first time I was at a GT3 race at COTA I immediately fell in love with the AMG GT because I rocked the entire bleachers on the front straight.

To be fair, the ls7r engine for the gt1 cars is no joke compared to the production variant. Apparently it was running over 14:1 compression and a cam profile that would kill a stock motor out right.
