Footnote: V8 supercars are no longer called V8 supercars. I think it's now called Virgin Australia Supercars Championship because the rules were changed to allow other engine configurations (despite rules change, I think all teams continue using V8 engines in 2017). These Australian V8 cars do sound pretty sweet, although they're not the loudest. For example, the Corvettes running in WEC and the American Weathertech Sportscar championships are much louder.
