NSTcarsbikesandtrucks: 'I want future generations to start a straight-six engine a few hundred years from now and cry with joy upon hearing the sound it makes — and realise just how lucky their ancestors were.'

The net effect of this ongoing campaign to prevent global flooding and general catastrophe is that more people are showing interest in electric cars, although a large chunk of the credit has to go to Tesla Motors for making powerful “washing machine” engines.

Sad, because these two companies were known for making inline six engines, and boy, were they smooth. But now we can see that larger engines are becoming even rarer as even the two marques’ limousines can now be bought with two-litre four-pots. As fans of “tinworm buffet”, we know how a straight-six engine is the best configuration for smooth and torquey engines. The only way to make that better is to add a second bank of six to make a V12.

We have to save the straight-six engine because it is proof that we, as a species have cracked this wonderful code of universal balance in creating one of the most important technological marvels of our time, have created the internal combustion engine. Lately, it seems, we are releasing more carbon into the atmosphere than before. This is leading to a change in climate, which is a natural process of rebalancing.
