	Although I am a fairly new fan of F1, I've been completely sucked
in...I now get up on Sunday mornings! to watch races live and I am also
reading various F1 articles in publications to absorb as much info as
possible...I don't even read PPG CART articles anymore! I am still
clueless, however, about all the differences, specs, and rules. But
after reading the above posts, what I really want to know is how they
make the engines sound so god-damned thrilling without using
turbochargers!??
