I'm assuming you've never heard a 3 rotor 20B then! The 20B is un-denieably the best sounding engine in the world in my books, and i'm sure even some of the most die-hard V8 lovers will agree that they are an awesome sounding engine. I admit that a non-turbo ported 20B can slightly resemble it's twin rotor sisters, however only slightly and this is more than adequately made up for by it's sheer roar from all 3 rotors under full throttle. Twin rotors bark or yell, tripple rotors ROAR! I suggest you seriously try to download some video clips of ROTORMASTER's 20B powered R100 doing a half-track burnout, the sound is unbeleivable! As for the usual twin rotor sound, it's all just personal opinion. Most people say they sound crap simply because they are different. They don't sound conventional so people like to pay them out. "ohh they sound like chickens on steroids" and crap like that. Personally i think the majority of them sound awesome. I used to hate Rotors with a passion when i was younger, but that was because i just went with the flow. But once i came to experience them first hand, i realised how awesome they really were and never looked back, now i can't get enough of them! Yes i agree that some of them really sound sickening, like tired 12A's and little 10A's with bad exhausts and the like. They sound really tinnie and aweful. However i love the deep bruuup bruuup bruuup from a fresh 13B peripheral port running injection and a deep, yet not too obtrusive exhaust. And of course you cant go past the smooth injected turbo 13B's in cars like FREAKY and AXX-13B. The mixture of the turbo spooling up and the Rotarie's exauhst note are simply meant to be!

Ps. Make sure you get videos of ROTORMASTER's old R100 at full noise!
