It was an amazing day. A 917 has an awesome sound. Not at all like a normal 6cylinder boxer. The Ferrari was also very distinctive.
As far as I remember the 917s didn't have Flat-6s they were Flat-12s and then Turbo Flat-12s.
Yes. What I meant was that the flat 12 is a boxer engine, but doesn't have a similar sound to that distinctive beat of the normal Porsche Flat-6
Remember when talking around Germans to pre-analyse and evaluate your words for all possible ambiguity and concise accuracy - to the letter, before you post em.. Because they sure will hehe
