The first Aprilia Cube with Regis Laconi on it sounded great at Donnington, like a 60's racing car.
The Benelli Tornado Tre racer that Peter Goddard rode in WSB from 2000-02.
MV 3, Honda 6 and BSA, Triumph 3 Racing bikes being ridden in anger.
One to four Rolls Royce Merlins at a few hundred feet.
Concorde doing a low pass with undercarriage/flaps down at British GP at Brands Hatch in the early eighties, was stood on the flat roof above my parents porch, could feel the house trembling!
My SV when it had a Renegade oval endcan on it.

SidSquid is there a Napier Sabre engine runing anywhere today or did you hear it on old footage?

I haven't a clue but I rather doubt it.
I was lucky enough to hear one for real more than 30 years ago - that fantastic racket has stuck with me though!
