Incredible sounding motor, sounds like a NASCAR with a German accent. I was at Le Mans in the late 80’s and 90, the a sight and sound that won’t ever leave me is of the Merc coming down into Indianapolis and then blasting out of Arnage in the small hours of a Sunday morning

Todays F1 looks and SOUNDS like a bad joke compare to this!... This car is a fuckin racing beast! Awesome!!!

This Group C, the F1-V10 time, Rally Group B, DTM of 80s&90s were the best Racingcars and Typ of all Time.

Group C racing cars (and GT1, GT2, and IMSA also come to mind) are like the military jets of the Spectacular everything about them!

The more I watch this, the more I think the C11 actually surpasses the 917 in my all time top 2. I was lucky enough to be track/stage side most weekends in the 80's and got to see Group C, Group B, Group A, F2/F3000 and F1 perhaps at their pinnacle of speed without tech killing them. The C11 was incredible.

That violent Sauber Mercedes engine... In a blindfolded sound quiz, I would recognize it easily.

Was lucky enough to see these race at Sandown in Australia. I still remember it like yesterday hearing this thing come down the straight for the first time. Its a sound thats cant be understood till its heard live. Just pure hairy balls horse power. The silk cut Jags got their doors blown off that day. Just an amazing car and absolutely beautiful to look at.

Monster Group C car along with the Merc C-9. Kenny Acheson was clocked at 405 kph on the Mulsanne at Le Mans, listen to that engine

Perfection... Simply the perfect engine sound...

[DannoAviation]

I miss the Group C days, the sheer diversification of cars/sounds etc… it was an incredible time for motorsport which will unfortunately never be replicated☹️

[theophilhist]

Every sound is so pure and raw audio excitement

[anonymousplanetfambly]

Wow...magnificent. I could listen to the onboard portion audio all day, playing in the background like Bach, Mozart, or Chopin. Absolutely symphonic.

[StormBlueTurbo]

never liked mercedes's muscle-ish engines but this is just plain brutality

[CS_]

Poor baby is hating that tiddly little track. Wants to be at LE MANS!!!! What a missile.

[wilkowilkins]

Simply my favourite Group C of all time and to my ears the best sounding

[gregd]

These cars have to be more interesting than even F1 today. Brutal sound, beautiful design. Intoxicating.

[cvtt]

Mercedes Benz always had the best sounding V8s and that's not debatable.

[drluiggi]

C11 virus is grove in me every time I look and listen this peace of racing art. Love Mazda, Porsche, AM, Panoz, ... but this car is every time deeper under my skin.
Great video!

[tommyboy]

The engines that made all the guys look at each other and just nod their heads.

[stevenjackson]

LOVE this car. Loved, and still love Group C. I saw them in Canada and Mexico City. Fabulous.
