First you'll hear a 10-cylinder, 750 horsepower Asiatech F1 engine being warmed up. Then it performs a rousing version of "When The Saints Come Marching In", to the delight of assembled pit staff and journalists.

Asiatech's French technicians (the engine, despite its name, is derived from a Peugeot design) simply programmed their engine to run through the various rev/note ranges in the correct sequence. The result is delightful. And think of the possibilities - BMW's F1 engine, which howls all the way to 19,050rpm, could rip through the entire Hendrix songbook. Even better, imagine a massed NASCAR choir performing "The Star Spangle BAnner"

 

I remember seeing a post about this a LONG time back, but at least it's news to the newbies.

BTW, that's pretty amazing

 

Im not sayings its NOT a F1 engine. BUt it sounds like a guy just humming into a cheap microphone then playing with the volume control while he does it.

but again, who knows

 

u can hear the pepole clapping at the end.

 

Guess it must be true then, i mean, people clapping must be the hardest thing in the world to fake :P

Liked it though.
