Has to be the most beautiful combination of power, performance and design I've ever seen.

The C11 is incredible it sounds like a WW2 Fighter Plane as you can see as well there were some great Porsche 962 in this Race they won everything in the 80’s but they couldn’t stand up with the mighty Beast Sauber Benz C11.It was in it’s own Class back then.What a legendary Beauty

Peter Sauber designed beautiful cars.

the sound combination of the wankel and the merc V8 is just unbeliveble

[fbk]

That damn race car is so simple in design but is an absolute beauty

[CLe-crzp]

Dang. 767 and c11 on the same track. C11 almost going all out. One of the best videos. Lemans sucks nowadays.

[michaelmckinley]

[mobius-]

[chirpter]

has to be one of if not the best sounding cross plane crank V8s ever

[DrumApe]

Fire breathing monsters. Nothing compares to this.

[MrMcKane]

You can keep your 787B (even if it does sound nice) this is the best engine noise period.

It sounds like amplified thunder.

[AndreiTupolev]

Lovely V8 rumble at idle. Most V8 racing cars rev so highly at idle.

[wumplite]

Is there a schedule or something like that where I can find out when events with cars like this are out on Spa? I really want to see and hear them in person!

[MusangLaut]

It sounds like crossplane R1

it is the best thing ever

[JB-dysq]

What beautiful endurance cars. Better than nowadays 👍

0:36 looks like blade shaves the asphalt hair :D

[JHSUMIT]

Crossplane V8, V4(Aprilia RSV4) and crossplane Inline 4(Yamaha R1). Sound similar because of firing order and angles
