NEW Aston Martin Valkyrie LMH TESTING at Donington Park - Pure V12 Sound!

[@jackytwickx5330]

10 years ago I would never have thought we would have another prototype V12 at Le Mans again. It's bonkers!

It's nice to see that the project was revived after effectively being dead as well. Might be the last V12 we ever see in top line racing but that's a line we've also heard before...

Yeah I do wonder what effect that'll have on reliability

[@naufalkusumah2192]

@@PescaraProductions I'm not surprised if it turns out using a whole new engine with only the block that's been carried over from the roadcar. I'm guessing they lowered the rev limiter to 8.5-9k instead of 11k so the engine is less stressed, even as far as de-stroking it to 5.5-6L capacity. The Cadillac uses 5.5L NA for comparison

@Kyuw33 Fuel is no much problem because there is an energy per stint regulation that is determined by the BOP. This allows any kind of engine to have the same stints lenght for the race. The only downside for the Aston will be the higher amount of weight and the internal volume occupation due to more fuel needed for the stint compared to other teams.

Cant wait to hear this bad boy scream at Interlagos next year

[@PescaraProductions]

It'll sound great through the last corner onto the start finish straight easily

[@Maky-vo7qs]

Love those sound. after how many years. Music to my ears

[@PescaraProductions]

Surprisingly regular sound at Donington Park. Not so much in top line motorsport today

[@casperdeboer12]

It sounds awesome

[@sambitdas9416]

It sounds so good, especially with the bass over the road version WEC rocks!!

[@still_guns]

Watched about 10 seconds then started giggling uncontrollably. V12's just do that to ya.

[@PescaraProductions]

I think the first few seconds where you can hear it echo off the trees might be my favourite

[@evesing1281]

It's fast, sounds amazing and looks amazing. What more can we ask for?

[@PescaraProductions]

The test not to have been private 😂

[@grahamgreen8106]

That sounds like a race car😊

[@yellayam]

Wow. This looks and sounds incredible. Next year's Le Mans is going to be so awesome.

[@PescaraProductions]

Hopefully should be there myself

[@gabrielbarcellos1036]

O ronco ficou intacto ❤❤❤

[@richardmiller1609]

Great sound! I was told at the gate no spectator access last Thursday but you clearly managed it!

[@PescaraProductions]

@richardmiller1609 I wasn't in the circuit itself. I went down the public footpath that runs down the back. Never been down there before but it gets you close

[@richardmiller1609]

@@PescaraProductions Ah!😊 Must check that out if need be in the future!

[@안되는차되게하라]

v12 90s le mans kicked in yo

[@PescaraProductions]

Almost Ferrari esque V12
