Just to list a couple of famous french quadricycles and the legal tidbits around them.

Ami is a L6e only vehicle so the omologation restrictions are:

- Dry weight less or equal 350kg (without batteries for EVs)
- Maximum engine power less or equal 4kw
- Maximum speed less or equal 45kmh

Renault twizy was sold under either l6e (45 model) or l7e (80 model) rules, l7e means

- Dry weight less or equal 400kg for passenger vehicles or 550kg for cargo vehicles(also without batteries for EVs)
- Maximum engine power less or equal 15kw

Renault used most of the same parts beside batteries, so it's an easy unlock to do, just a quick flag edit over obd.

Oh wow I wouldn't have thought the Twizy is such a hotrod with 3x as much power. As a reminder, it's this thing, with tandem seats and optional doors:

I have been in a tuned ape 150 and I've felt proper fear, any l7e quadricyle at full tilt is a death trap.

Sooo much better than a golf cart. I'd buy one in a heartbeat.

this is mental and has made me interested in engines (its a physically modelled engine simulator with sound generated direct from the simulation)

Pretty f'n cool software.

One thing that's fun is to compare the firing order of the LS vs Gen 1-3 SBC that gives the LS it's "bark". It's just two cylinders swapped, as I recal, but makes all the difference.
Someone also modeled the Ford GT500 flat-plane versus a European flat plane (possibly in different software hardware - I don't recall for certain.) Same kind of difference. A different firing order makes the Ford sound more like a cross-plane (they didn't want to completely alienate Mustang mullets.)
In the video toiletbrush posted, the author mentions that American manufacturers also use exhaust trickery.

He also models the Dorito:

Though he uses a peripheral port intake and exhaust, which is going to sound a bit different from the side port models, but mainly in a good, brappy, way. Mostly in terms of intake/exhaust overlap (which is "brap". Basically the same as a high lift, high overlap cammed piston engine has "lope".)

AFewBricksShy: Jun 19, 2003; of a full load.

This showed up in Perry Mason last night, it's an absolutely amazing car, but I can't id it.
I'm assuming it's an Auburn Speedster, but it doesn't have the exhaust coming out of the sides.

That's absolutely a supercharged Auburn Speedster.

Fornax Disaster: Apr 11, 2005; If you need me I'll be in Holodeck Four.

I think it�s an Auburn Speedster replica, the radial tires and modern wheels give it away.

Replicas where made by a few different companies over the years, some were pretty well done. Link is an example built in the 70s on a ford chassis.

They probably removed the pipes for the show. Other pictures of that car have them.

I loved this too and was also gunna post fir ID but the right combo of "1930's boat tail" got me to it. Show's got some neat cinematography at times, and the sunset in the desert shots of this thing were great.
