Авто/Мото
I was there in 1991. In the middle of the night, there were two distinct and very different sounds. The Sauber Mercedes, 5 Litre, twin turbo, thundering away in the lead, a silver flash, glowing brake discs and it was gone for another lap. As the sound subsided, there was another sound in the distance, a high pitch scream the rotary in pursuit... eventually the Sauber faltered. Great memories
Thanks!
Ill pour biofuel all over a 767 and give the tires to african children
Ill ram you with a toyota minolta
ill set your rims on fire
I shall put Stilton cheese in your driving suit and weld the zipper shut
This car....this fucking car terrorized me in Gran Turismo 3 when I was a kid. I never beat it, but I can draw you a detailed sketch of what the back looks like...I have that shit ingrained into my memory.
Antwon Jenkins lol old chap, i was playing with the 787B getting terrorized by that red Toyota with the insane top speed
Antwon Jenkins LMFAO YESSS!!!!! That car was a brute!! All I ever saw was the rear end until I finally got it.
Samwise El Lol yeah! The GT something.... That car used to infuriate me once I got the 787B because I would never see it in a race till then. Only time I would ever even HEAR it was the turbo blow off on each shift on the start of each race. Man that brings back memories.
Antwon Jenkins Haha I ended up owning all them cars Nissan lm Toyota gt one and the 787b. Racing Monaco endurance race for 3 hours straight then crashing in the last lap and losing first place.
+Will P. Toyota Gt one Haha
Anyone else nominate this car as the most powerful sounding and best sounding car in existence?
F1 gtr...
Noooooooo Lola Judd t92 will smash this
yes
Ferrari 412 T2 and Williams FW26?
@@Monty-sd6tc Sauber C9 is diabolic
The sound of the 787B literally brings tears to the eyes. There’s just nothing else like it. Phenomenal.
ferrari f40 lm sounds better and it has pistons and a cavalino rampante on the hood
You could literally leave the word 'literally' out of literally every sentence you write, and it literally wouldn't change the meaning. Try it.

@2whl4re " i had him crying till the morning ". So tell me, is that a phrase or a fact ? Only the word "literally" would have made you not have to guess.

20 years later jumping back in the same motor you drove all them years ago and getting to go round the same course. Fucking awesome, imagine doing that.
The engine was rebuilt, but same type. R26B. That thing was a savage
I can’t imagine the feeling.
A lot less tired driving it for a few laps than during the 24.
Almost the same course
I recently watched a documentary about the 787b. Is this the driver that didn't make it to the podium after the chequered flag because of driving an extra stint and was nursing an injury?
787Bは国宝です。
Those downshifts at 1:56 are probably the best downshifts I have ever heard in my entire life... Man that takes some skill!
Yeah for sure. Skill and stamina needed.....and balls.
But even great drivers screw up. Herbert gets off the clutch a little to soon around 3:40. If you listen closely you can hear it scrape for a second.
Andrew Hooker To be fair, he hadn’t driven the car in a long time.
Mr. Johnny Herbert ladies and gentlemen.
WUUPUP PUP WUUUPUPUP (pop crackle)
Agreed😍😍
Johnny seems so relaxed behind the wheel, like he's chatting at the bar with an old friend.
Trust me, that car is hard to drive.
The difference between you and a pilote
'tis an old friend :)
@@thethirdman225 Why you had the chance to drive it ? 😏😂🤣
@@kasugakyosuke6441 Of course not. Have you read the reviews by the people who _did_ drive it? The late Belgian journalist Paul Frere, said the steering was very heavy and the car suffered from terminal understeer. When Johnny Herbert finished the 24 Hours at Le Mans, he was so exhausted that he had to be carried from the car and did not attend the victory celebrations with co-drivers, Volker Weidler and Bertrand Gachot.

0:53 gives me goosebumps every time I hear it.
Same here. Goooood Lord that’s amazing!
I cried a little.
imagine if it kept going higher forever
Oh yes, me too!!!
Me too
that clutch delay, oh god that is music for my ears
For me, this is the most iconic race car ever, once a year, I pop in here to hear this masterpiece of a car, I guess it was this car that made me an absolute Mazda fan.
How do you drive this car with out a throbbing errection
soyxpanda I'm not sure you can.
they got a seperate harness for that
+Iam MTS Chapter 4 of "Driving a 787b" says:
"During your race with this vehicle, you may experience an intense erection lasting throughout your entire drive. In order to not become distracted by your massive erection, you must play with yourself when not shifting gears."
Dunkaccino25 at least it's easier since the gear stick is on the right!
As a woman.
Am I the only one who would rather have roatary engines in 2014 for F1 rather than turbo V6's?
Sound would be interesting, and it might make reliability even more of an important factor.
It would be so much better. The new cars sound like blenders or something, and are way too quiet. Plus with rotaries you could get the same or maybe more power out of a smaller lighter engine which would make for even faster cars.
could you guys imagine a 25,000 plus rpm redline on a formula one rotary motor..... Music to my ears.....
Mazda Rotary engine
Strider Sky No, it wasn't banned. This myth is simply bullshit. The regulations changes (that also made obsolete all cars built to the pre-1992 regulations, funny how you who believe in this myth never mention this) for 1992 season had nothing to do with Mazda or their win the previous year, especially since they were set in stone at least full year before they even won.
I don't care how good wankel is in theory, but fact is that outside of 1991 Le Mans Mazda never even finished on the podium despite using wankel engines for several years and full seasons in the World Sportscar Championship. In 1991, it finished fifth in the Championship behind, Jaguar, Peugeot, Mercedes and Spice-Cosworth.
I only just found out that Johnny was in too much pain to get to the podium when he won in 1991, Really great that he eventually got the chance to launch himself onto that top step.
He literally almost died, they extracted him from the winning car, and sent him straight to the hospital.
Not pain, he was dehydrated because he had the shits.
Done so well after breaking both legs,local lad too us❤
That gear change @1:35 just coming out of Tertre Rouge and onto the Mulsanne Straight went all the way through, right down to my soul .
watch?v=QtUEPwHnxmU
Agreed Georgi!
the little flutter in engine pitch as it settles into gear tickles my spine
30 years by now of this awesome victory , 10 years from this very video and still gives me unbelievable emotions. Best sounding engines ever.
Glad I'm not the only one getting emotional over engine sounds lol
I was there when he did this . . . the only car you can hear the ENTIRE way round the track no matter where you are, epic!
I was only 3 years old in 1991, this car was my favorite to listen to and when I played GT3 and GT4 I would rev the hell out the car just to hear the engine crackle to life.
The sound just goes into your body and resonates. It's sensational
Is and always will be the best sounding car ever built
It sounds great, the 917 sounds like a monster
that would be the dallara IR-05 with the honda HI10R and HI11R V8s. will say though, this thing"s up there.
Probably my most favorite 787b video on youtube. I love the old H pattern shifting on group C cars a lot more than today's paddle shifting. And one can never forget the angry, monstrous engine sound of the 787b as it roared around Le Sarthe back in its day. It assaulted everyone's eardrums, but in a good way!
this car has a quickshifter, so only up and down not an H
@@DylanvdBerg it’s not a sequential. You literally see him pulling the gear lever back and it staying where he puts it. A sequential would spring back. It’s an H-Pattern shifter, most if not all Group-C cars were in this era
This is one of the top 10 best videos ever produced.
Beautiful engine noise. What a precision roar and high pitch of perfection.
One of the best moments in racing history. Tiny Mazda wins, and with one of the greatest sounding and looking car ever
Thank you Johnny. At that time, you couldn't stand on the podium because of dehydration. I'm glad to see you on the podium. Thank you for loving Japan. From JAPAN.
As the saying goes.. powered by 4 spinning doritos, fueled by mountain dew :)

TheTripol is the car being painted orange and green part of the joke?
made my day
Immortal dorito powered jesus.
What a gamer
Happy 30th Anniversary 787B
Props to the clutch for holding out for that lap.
I'm old, but I loved driving Gran Turismo. The Mazda and Toyota were my favorite cars.
My son's never beat my times, and I always won the endurance races, too.
We spent years camping, shooting weapons, building bonfires and throwing five gallon buckets of white fuel on the flames. Fireworks throughout the year and eating pizza late at night.
We had access to over 200 acres of wooded land an hour south of KC.
This video triggered so many excellent memories.
Thanks from the bottom of my heart!!
That was beautiful and a little bit scary. Kudos to Herbert and that magnificent machine. 🔥
It´s a legend of the tracks, still running for all the race addicts; thank you very much Mazda :-)
I can't get enough oft this sound
I watch this about once every two or three weeks.
My son and I were lucky enough to talk to Johnny at the British GP a few years back. Such a nice guy, totally giving of his time. It’s hard to marry up that lovely guy with the sort of loony mad enough to drive this beast in the night at 240mph. Massive respect for the car and a totally charming man. Great video!!
i know what you mean, seeing him when he was a presenter on Sky F1 he's such a funny, whitty kinda guy always having a laugh and a joke but we forget he was once a F1 driver in the days where balls was just as important as talent so he knows what it takes to get inside beasts like this and drive the nuts off them
A gentleman racer. He was one of my favourites in F1 . That car sounds AWESOME.
I can’t stop watching this incredible video. Mazda really shouldve made more of these cars. Phenomenal sounds.
Iconic car. One of my all time favourites. Johnnie Herbert also a legend; underrated driver.
This has to be one of the BEST sounding race cars on the planet! I truly do love the sound of a four rotor.
That 787B shall be UNESCO world sound heritage
Johnny and Mazda, 2 heroes!
Officials had to warn the crowd that this car was coming because it was soo LOUD!❤
Herbert shifting between 1:55 and 2:20. WOW ! The symphony of this thing revving and shifting with a properly great driver is extraordinary.
And the guy is far from his best now. Imagine then !
My god, that sound sends shivers down my spine! Awesome!
This literally brings tears into my eyes, majestic machine
That was so great! I have watched it 6 or 7 times now and will watch it every time it comes up in my feed. Great driver driving one of the greatest cars of all time! So relaxing to just watch and listen.
Imagine shifting 5 million times in a race. The dream.
Believe me, you'd be exhausted after after even an hour. Imagine 24 hours !!
Nice one Johnny! Good to see you've still got it! That thing sounds mega and some fun to drive!
so cool to see an old man keeping it real
The ultimate "getting to relive your good days" moment. Johnny Herbert is a legend. Very cool to see him behind the wheel of the 787B again.
The in car view is a great reminder of just how hard these beasts would be to drive. Just look at the grip on the wheel and how much its fighting. Frickin amazing!
Seeing this car, and realizing Rob Dahm stuffed the same thing into an FDRX7 is insane. This car is pure sound and sheer speed. What a piece of automotive history.
and Rob turbocharged it which the 787b isn't. It sounds awesome ^^
Rob Dahm has created a fucking monster with his 4 rotor. Crazy to look at this car and think, it needs more power AND more traction. hahaha fuck me.
Yes! Although Rob's 4 rotor is turbo-charged, there are a lot of differences actually. The 787B had variable intake geometry and 3 spark plugs per rotor, unlike Rob's 4 rotor build.
Such an amazing piece of kit! I love the 787b, always have. Reminds me of a time when it more about the mechanics and driver and less about the computers.
4ローターR26Bのストック部品をこの晴れ舞台の為に使い切ったそうで、もう本当にこれが最後のワンセットだそうです。自動車文化遺産に指定したいくらいに貴重
Music to my ears , hands down the best engine sound on any car ... period !
787B will always be one of my favourite ever race cars. Wasn't fancied at all to even last more than a few hours, but somehow won. Never forget how knackered Johnny looked at the end!
I was there too, helped push car in to garage after park ferme. Chief mechanic gave me my treasured Mazda Speed Hat. Happy days and best sound ever . Well done Mazda and team
The sound is a symphony. I listen to it everyday. Makes me cry.
もう言葉にできないくらい最高だね！！
This engine and transmission are so unique sounding, it’s amazing
What a pairing - both of them are simply sublime.
I was at Le mans 2010.. And you quickly learned to notice / hear when the (back then) Pink Mazda were within a mile.. It screamed like nothing else on the track 🤩Le man, is just something every car fan,, should have on his bucket list 📃✔️😉❤️
I had goose bumps from the moment he started all the way till the end. Unbelievable
Man! That car can howl just like it does in Gran Turismo 4.
Toby Pasman OK I'd 5
Dont forget the wobbly wiperblade lol.
It's the only car I want to use, just to hear its outrageous engine note!
One of the fastest cars too.
Holy Balls! This is so insane the 787b in action!!! Woah!
Beautiful, thank you. I fell in love with a Kudzu at Sebring historic racing back in 2003 or so.
One of the greatest race cars in history, I’m sad it took me 11 years to see this video.
hes shifting slow becuase he is enjoying this experience in my opinion.
@Gergő Molnár it is still the dog box, they'll have told him to take it easy on the original transmission as they don't want to break the priceless relic
@@KrikkitWarlord It's synchro'd. The transmission is built for longevity and fuel economy, what you need in an endurance race.
@@b3delta1 Quite right about synchros - I didn't think anyone would use them even in endurance racing! Nothing to do with fuel economy though...
@@KrikkitWarlord and less strain on the driver. I saw an interview and they mentioned fuel economy because they dont need to rev match as much which uses a small amount of fuel each time when added up over 24 hrs can make a difference
@@KrikkitWarlord in endurance races fuel usage is very important -> harder rubber tires and less fuel consumption = less pit stop = more time . This is why diesels took over Le Mand a couple years ago, and now hybrids.
Such a throwback to GT 3 when I dominated the game with this absolute beast
Once a fabulous driver, always a fab driver...FANTASTIC !!!!
IMO, the greatest sounding engine ever.
That shift at 2:05 is pure bliss
Uops !
Qué pureza de sonido!
Thanks for sharing ❤❤❤
Its 2018 and still watching this beutyfull mazda 787b sound
30 YEARS Ago TODAY!,, Mazda Won Le Mans, wow JH still as smooth as ever after 20 years.
Nothing like a Rotary, after close to 50 years myself I still love the very last real rotary ever made my Series II RX-8, still all original and still going strong, still has a 12 year old LA Battery (INOX works).
(RX-3 10A, RX-5, RX-7, RX-8)
That sound is amazing
Gvcl
F1 sounds
@@playgt326 r shit
There's something quite addictive to the sound of a race car motor on full chat banging up and down the gears as it hits the red line...this is a beautiful sight and sound..poetry in motion.
Was there live in 1991. The distinct howl of this car thundering down the mulsanne at night, incredible experience.
これは楽器だ
Every time I watch this I get goosebumps!!!
This era had the most gorgeous vehicles imho
Downshifts are just orgasmic✨ Thank you sir !!!
Love it. Amazing car, amazing sound.
1:55 the sound of those down shifts....glorious.
I was there in 1991. Unforgettable and addictive symphony. 🥰
Love the sound. Love it. I'm here for my semi-annual fix. LOVE IT.
If God was a race car, he’d be a 787b
Jeremy Clarckson voice : The Noise !!!!! absolutely beautiful when it's screams along the straights.
Usually, rotaries aren't my thing, clever as they are. But this gives me chills when it's at full chat. It quite simply, epic.
WOW WOW WOW WOW WOW,two great legends in one,Johnny Herbert and Mazda 787B.This is really fabulous,It's like 1991 24 Hours of Le Mans but 20 years later

The most extraordinary sound ever by motor machine
If you had this this car in Grand Turismo you won every race. Till this day in GT7 still my favorite car
Respect to that guy
That's real work inside that car
The mazda 787B is the best sounding automotive engine. You can not change my mind.
This car looks and sounds just incredible!
