F1 music

[Warp6]

I copied this from another site, enjoy!

In F1 the cars are warmed up for approximatly 1 minute before the races. since the engine is controlled by a computer this is usually done by the engine running a random program and alternating the RPM from idle to their 19,000 RPM redline. Normaly the programmed warm up is just a random fluctuation of RPM.. until the Renault engineers realized they can alter the RPM tones to make music!

At the inaugural US F1 Grand Prix at Indy, the Renault engineers programmed their F1 engine's warmup sequence to play "When the Saints Go Marching In".

After their world championship win this season, the guys back at Renault F1 HQ decided they needed something appropriate, so they stuck an engine on the dyno, hooked up a mic, and played Queen's "We Are The Champions.

That kind of puts Jackyls Jesse James Dupree's chainsaw solo on "Lumberjack" to shame.
