But we want racing.

Edit: never heard the 12s but have sat on the Start-Finish line at Silverstone when we had V10s at 18,000 rpm. Impossible to describe. We removed our ear protection to best experience it!
Fantastic sound wasn't it? I went to the Canadian Grand Prix every year since 1988 up until the new hybrid cars came out a couple years ago. I went to the first one with the new engines and haven't been back to a Grand Prix since. It is missing much of the excitement with the toned down engines. Kind of like hearing Jimi Hendrix playing acoustic guitar....good, but not nearly as exciting as electric.
