V10 notes are the best minus the annoying gurgle from the traction control. I love it when they rev it up before release from pit stop.

1991 McLaren MP4/6 BY FAR. This is one of few cars on earth that had an instantly recognizable engine note.

Agreed!
Just listen to this note http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uPR2U8yI ... annel_page
Understeer is when you hit the wall with the front of the car and oversteer is when you hit the wall with the rear of the car. Horsepower is how fast you hit the wall, torque is how far you take the wall with you.

In terms of the more recent years, I think the Williams FW26/FW27 had decent engine sounds, as did the Ferrari F2005 and the McLaren MP4/20. From the V-8 years, I actually used to like the Midland M16 on the onboard shots, but back in 2006, you could recognize the MP4/21's sound. Very strange noises came out of that car...
