[@jamarcus_OG]

Because it used to be so good, V12/V10/V8 sounded magnificent. These V6 sound ok I guess , but not emotional like the engines of the past . That's why Formula E never grew in popularity, not because of close racing (and it has plenty of that) , but because the cars "sound" utter garbage. The same principle applies in RC racing: when the Electric category runs , almost everybody feels bored or disconnected from the action, while when the nitro race starts, everyone on the track border to look what's happening. It's Motorsport, and its soul is made of sound other than competition and technological innovation.
