1) Top Fuel car on full power pass - it has to be No.1, there is no sound like it in the world.
2) XH558 Vulcan on re-heat - that banshee roar is unique.
3) A P51D Mustang in a dive with that fantastic Merlin and the wind whistling over the Gun Ports.
4) Any Mopar on open headers - Tied with a Ducati with Termis on over-run.
5) Lemmy's bass on full over-drive - such as the beginning of
WORST Sound:
That horrible and never-ending lock up of brakes and screech of tyres as you look in your rear view mirror and realise the plum behind you in the Disco has Bananarama! up and is about to give you a bit of rear entry.
Fortunately, I managed to edge forward and save a lot of paperwork.
What are your top 5??

Someone has to say it but a woman's moan has to be my number 1.

You do not disappoint, Andy; predictable to the last.
Is her moan shortly followed by the immortal words "Is it in yet?"
Meanwhile, back on topic......

Words no man wants to hear during sex; Is it in yet?
Words no woman want to hear: I dont know?

Non after burning engines Pete, went pretty well dry, gawd knows how it would've gone 'wet' , intake volume might've been problematic along with fuel consumption
Always like the sound of the Merlin (Packard & Rolls Royce) but a Shack MR3/3 with all six engines 4x Griffon 2x Viper jet was quite a sound, however, I'd throw the sound of ME109G Black 6's DB605 made into the hat

Pair of Top fuellers passing at around the 400ft mark
Sammy Millers Vanishing Point, all 3.14 seconds of it...
TZ750
A RAF Phantom on a low pass through a Welsh valley
My kids laughing
Worst... The Belve hitting 7000rpm on my first and only (so far) launch at the Pod
Log stove crackling and daughter properly laughing both put as smile on my face as others have said.
What i don't like....too much to list.......

Number 1 has to be a Saturn 5 which unfortunately I was born on the wrong continent to have ever heard live.
The banshee wail of a Lightning at full chat.
Lisa Gerrard, the most incredible voice I have ever heard.
A modified eliminater car launching at 9 grand.
Helena Bonham Carter saying "yes of course I'd like to join you for a drink"....

"how would you like me to cut your hair today sir" The sound of a 500 single matchless being kicked into live The extension is finished Pete you can come home now A 35 car NHRA field of SS cars ready to race at the pod And my 426 max wedge 13.5 on open headers at the pod

Don't be silly, Pete - you would never get 500 Matchboxes to start at the same time - if at all!!!
I think some of the others are attainable, though.
Showing my age, I have seen:
No Saturn V but a Space Shuttle launch (at night),
a Lightening pass,
Sammy Miller's 3 second pass,
XH558,
An F4 at an airshow back in the day (never saw an SR71 actually fly)
The No sleep till Hammersmith tour.
I have not been accosted by HBC, but I can see the appeal, though......
