No, that just sounds like a V8 with a very open exhaust.

The howl of a rotary is 'special' in a rare kind of way.

Loud does not equal good  Thumbs Up!

It may be, but to me it’s an unrefined racy sound – the sound of an 8 will always remain iconic in my ears. Thumbs Up!

An 8 will always be unrefined, now a 6 or 12.....

"Weeel, TBH, I'm not even interested in running unless you're going to nail it"  Grin

A mate of mine had a rotary engined Westfield. It was about 115dBA @1m idling IIRC. Grin
