Where oh where can I get that awesome whistle that sounds like an F1 car ?
You know, the one some fans have at races. I need to wake some people up here in the office !

sorry, but I wanna F1 whistle.

eh? you mean those big horn things? they don't sound like an F1 car so I guess they're not it ...

[bafilas]

nononono. Not the horns, man
There's a special frickin whistle that simulates the F1 engine, even the pitch change when the car whizzes by. I've seen e few Ferrari fans with them in some races, and i'm telling you, the sound you get out of'em is wicked. I WANT ONE.

hmm, you're making me want one too now ...

else, we could buy a heap of S2000s and rev it to 18,000rpm for a few seconds, until it explodes and starts showering red hot parts everywhere like a Mir re-entry.. that could get a bit expensive though.

When you find out where, post the source. I'd wager they could sell plenty of 'em just through this site alone.



- I'll take 5.

C'mon people forchrissake.

There's guys here who know McLaren's carburator inside-out, yet nobody's got the info on the F1 WHISTLE. And they think they're F1 gurus.
Pah !

No wonder McLaren couldn't catch Ferrari in Oz, if they're using a carburettor...

You could try the 'For Sale / wanted' forum

There's even a lancia going for a song in there.

The Lancia saga [Lanciagate? ] is hardly the best advert for the 'For Sale / wanted' forum though, is it?

Next time you're at a race ask them!

[mel]

Perhaps not, but if you blew it really hard it might sound like a whistle.

[JayWay]

I have one, i'll sell it to you

[mel]

Online auction. Fantastic. What am I bid for Jayway's whistle?

[JDeRosa]

Sorry mel, but Pascal's Lancia already blows.

[CONOSUR]

Yo, Jay, if you really have a whistle, where'd you get it?

[RedFever]

guys, do you know what Jayway's whistle really is???? GGG, I am not sure you want Tanja to have it........

[f1racer]

I wanna F1 whistle too....actually.

Someone must know about them!

[thegreatone]

I've never heard about the F1 whistle.
I don't know how it sounds.
The only thing I know.......is
...That now I want one:mad:

[RedFever]

ask JayWay, he'll be happy to show you his....

[ARing]

My wife bought me one at the Nurburgring a few years ago. It turned out to be an ordinary kazoo being sold for around $5.00. It is also somewhat difficult reproduce accurate F1 sounds. Some people at the track can do it more justice than I can. Still I have had a lot of fun with it.

[JayWay]

This old guy was selling em outside the Canadian Grand Prix. I got mine for $5

Opening bid starts at $200

You mean it's just an ordinary dime-a-dozen kazoo?
