I guess the loudest sound came from an old V10 that was taking fans on slow laps around the track

Passing this article along because I'm in so much agreement : http://www.bbc.com/sport/0/formula1/26666624

excerpts:

"I'm blown away to learn people were spending hundreds of pounds to attend a race just to hear a really loud noise."

and more...

"When this writer was growing up, and falling in love with F1, it was some years before I even saw an F1 car live. I was captivated by the essence of the sport - the unbelievable skill and bravery of the drivers, the beauty and magnificence of the cars, the thrill of the racing."
Not my words (obviously) but they echo how I too was drawn to F1...and this was from just reading about F1 in the mags. Saw my first F1 race in 1965, will be in Montreal this June.
