    What a SOUND! That is music to the ears of anyone of a mechanical inclination! WOW!

    As a little boy, 7 or 8, I noticed all the movies, cartoons and kids shows, dubbed every fast car with the same note, and (sadly) no 'real' car ever sounded like that. It was the mid '80s before I discovered what that sound came from - it was the 917. I'm now 50. All my life, this is what a fast car SHOULD sound like.

      The sound of a Flat 12

    • @Kneedragon1962

      @@Panzer_Runner It's the sound your blood makes when it goes 'zing'. It's the sound of your license flapping away while the cop asks for it while one hand is on his side arm. Over 50 years now I've been a motor sport fan, and nothing sounds as good as that. Ok, a last generation V-10 Ferrari at 18,ooo rpm, those sounded pretty damn good too....

    Vielen Dank für dieses schöne Video!!! Das ist so krass!!! Es zeigt, das in den 50 jahre jungen 917ern noch jede Menge Potential und vor allem Racing Spirit steckt, mit dem die modernen Rennställe nicht mithalten können! ... Mein Traum seit ich ein Kind gewesen bin;... 3 fertige 917er in Le Mans, 3facher Klassensieg..in 2022!!! Das war der Wahnsinn!!!!!!!!

    Just imagine, the later CanAm Porsche 917/30 could hit 200mph from standstill, in a little under 17sec, and top out at nearly 240mph.
    Depending on the circuit, the engine could be pushing out over 1400Hp.
