What a beautiful piece of engineering . I remember to this day hearing the BRM at Goodwood on what may have been its first race and the sound has never lost its appeal

What a fantastic project and absolutely unique I'd have thought. Looks stunning and sounds even better. Huge congratulations to all who made this happen. ❤❤

That thing sounds really savage, Fangio loved it, Moss was wary of it, fabulous machine, great shame it wasn't reliable in the day, but they were pushing their technology beyond the limits.

Great interview, thank you for sharing. This thing howling in the distance is SUCHHH A SOUNDDD!

I have this sound as the ring tone on my mobile. Incredible.

That sound is always spine tingling 👌❣

Screaming is not a word I would use to describe this engine sound, raucous, loud and bellowing may be more apt.

Oh she screams. There is no way to not scream when it has that little displacement revving to 12k

What an incredible achievement, huge congrats to everyone involved with the project! 👏👍😀

What an absolute beautiful terrifying beast!😁

Well summed up! 🤣

Sounds like a Allosaurus..perfect build.👍

Absolutely magnificent I am old enough to have witnessed it racing at Goodwood. What a sound from that magnificent engine

This car is spectacular 😊

Gloriously Brutal.

I saw this going up the hill on Saturday……..absolutely amazing experience…..I can only imagine what it’d be like sat behind the wheel!

Incredible engine and automobile. And well driven!

This one runs really clean. Most of the recordings you can hear how moody the engine is, it then cleans up and that savage howl happens.

That was the time when cars still had character.

Wonderful

I believe Chris use to announce Goodwood (I wish he still did)

Sounds like Nigel Mansell has a brother!

Most of all, it looks sooooo great. That nose~~~

F me, that's BRILLIANT ! Also, how does it manage to sound like a near 6 litre NASCAR engine !!

Actually, the question should be, why does a 6 litre NASCAR engine sound like a 1.5 V16. This was well and truly out long before the standardised v8 NASCARs run

Pistons the size of a double scotch is a more accurate description It’s not coil ignition, magnetos

In the book 'BRM' by Raymond Mays and Peter Roberts the pistons are described as being the size of polite coffee cups.

The engine snarl would scare LEO himself…

Why didn't the engineers consider to put wider rubber on the race cars of that era?

Good question, I don't know - limited manufacturing ability maybe? I wonder if anyone else knows?

@@HillClimbTV Well, given the high engineering complexity of the rest of vehicle - this car being a good example of that - it's hard to see wider rubber being insurmountable

Presenter is running out of questions. Keeps harping on how stupid aircraft olio's are for the application, and glad someone can afford to pay which makes it alright. Beautiful sounding v16. My god.

I thought the engine was a flat 16 boxer.

Wasn't it a Mercedes designe

Imagine what that engine could do with more tire
