Porsche 917 pure sound on the track

[@billmoyer3254]

I was 16 years old, living in Daytona Beach when Pedro Rodriguez drove the Gulf-Porsche 917 to victory in the 1971 24 Hours. After the race, the fans were allowed to come down to the pits and see the cars. Standing next to a 917 at idle is something I will never, ever forget. Your entire body vibrated to those 12 cylinders.

There are some cars that have a sublime sound, and then there's this.

[@hannukoistinen5329]

There is also American engines, which beat all the German mofas:):)

I love seeing and hearing these classic race cars out on a track, they're no longer pushed to their limits but they are active and they are getting to amaze us all over again. Restoring classic cars and parking them in a museum is tragic. (BTW, I feel the same way about classic airplanes, they need to fly!)

[@hugejohnson5011]

These cars were capable of what, 240 mph at LeMans 50+ years ago? Amazing piece of equipment I'd say. And, one of the most iconic and evocative race cars to ever roll on our planet. Simply awesome.

The sound of a Flat-12, what a rare beast

[@invisiblepuppet3437]

that sound at 0:28 is one of the biggest reasons I fell in love with the Porsche 917.

[@beedee9534]

Great car like the Ferrari and the GT40 sound

[@lowbornfabrication]

For me its that tone right at 1:00 mark. That long harmonic drone of 12 pistons firing in harmony.

[@Bol__________________________z]

Then listen to a mercedes benz sauber c9 or c11 you'll fall in love with the twin turbo v8

[@HarryRail08]

The most beautiful sportscar in history.

[@jeremybass2707]

It must have been a crazy thing to do, driving such a soaring rocket 50 years ago... what an impressive machine. What a sound of an engine. Goosebumps!!!

[@flyingdutchman4you]

Excellent, possibly the next best sound after a Merlin 12 cylinder.

[@theant9821]

I'd say second to the audi sport Quattro. the 5 cylinder sound is incredible like these are

[@maxwellbricks7632]

With all due respect please add a Beechcraft 18 twin with P&W radials

[@davecsullivanjr]

What about this? m.kzbin.info/www/bejne/nIuwgXd5g96Erqc

[@LarsMarsCars]

Last weekend I saw the exact same car (#21 ; 015/035) here at the Historic Grand Prix demo in Holland. It was the first time for me to see (and hear) a 917. Video on my channel ;)

[@vidright]

917: best sounding car ever!

[@velchuck]

Nothing, and I mean NOTHING, sounds like that! ❤️

[@lowbornfabrication]

The best walk-away exhaust tone ever…😢 🏁🏴‍☠️

[@mrfrdman]

[@mmmmmilash8850]

[@mikewallace8087]

The Best death machine ever designed .

[@chrispompano]

..ehhhh....I drove one every day...... WHEN I WAS 5 & it was 1.5" long! Wow, some people are born lucky!

[@CountachLamborghini]

I would sell my soul for a 917.

[@thomasobrien1213]

[@stevenhall4444]

[@scotten34]

Ohh my fucking god, I love the Sound ❤

[@wernerschulte6245]

Pure sound ?? What do I hear in the background ?

[@skringardhildegard4000]

Boss music

[@religiousdemon7603]

Sounds like a mix of a Porsche 991 911 gt3rs and a Lamborghini Murciélago

[@erickriebel4366]

I can only imagine how fast the Kansas City Chiefs guy Rasheed rice would be going if he had this car but I would also say not very long

[@jamescampbell4334]

This video needs to be WAYYYYYYYYYYYYY longer! 6 hrs at a minimum. 🤔

[@cydonian0417]

It's so quiet and refined, I could hardly tell the engine was running - NOT! That noise is like a vaccination against Snowflakes for me! No EV will ever sound that ballsy.

[@Townchild1]

The only ONe for me

[@LuanPradoMaia]

please stop putting music in automotive videos, we want more about car noises!

[@armathyx]

I feel like that livery was stolen from somewhere...

[@MikaLuoma-y3v]

Road legal version about 500 hp, Leo Kinnunen drive 917 cabriolet 2xturbo version even 1500 hp. Three time expensive than same time F1 !

[@tr7b410]

[@scirockalot8v]

Remove the music

[@Foxbat1155]

Your songs ruined the video

[@kentiner63]

How stupid to ruin this video with a music track, especially given the title of the video.

[@Mash333]

Turn that shit music off. Omg. Really?
