What a company Honda were In the Sixties they were developing Racing Bikes, 50cc twin, 125 cc 5 cylinders, 250cc and 297cc six cylinders and 500cc 4 cylinders or four stroke, all DOHC, 4 valve heads, reving upto 22000 revs, 8 speed gearbox transmission.. over 50 years ago. And a formula 1 with similar technology. I saw an interview with Lewis Hamilton the other day , when Alonso was demonstrating the Renault V10 which was built 30 years later in the 90’s. It did sound gorgeous. So formula one owners, maybe you should sponsor Honda to demonstrate that beautiful car around the circuits, with maybe Jenson Button driving, as he is definitely an anorak 😉.

Love the immaculate white overalls! Glorious noise. Never lose that noise, even if you must eventually adopt the forklift truck motor, make sure there’s a fucking great speaker and amp in the car, putting out that noise!

You should have heard the 1983 European Formula 2 Honda 2L V6 engine - a full-works unit, so loud at start-up in the pits they clipped on a pair of silencers! It really screamed its way to winning 7 out of the 12 races.

That must be a blast to drive. The only thing I've heard that's similar was a Porsche 916 that fouled somehow and was sent to the back of the lineup. It sounded like someone stomping a cat to death.

Did you ever drive an in- and outlet guided two stroke engine? Their power band isn't necessarily narrow. Striving for high specific power output will always result in a narrow power band, no matter if two or four stroke and culminates in a turbine.

this is the real Honda music that impresses me.

I imagine the tooling to build such a small displacement V12 would be a real marvel. Any engineers out there care to chime in? Such a beautiful beast.
