That when you're at 12k rpm's in the time it takes you to say "one thousand and one" you had 400 little controlled explosions between your legs.
Spiffy!

Shouldn't it be 800?
12,000 rpm * 4 cylinders = 48,000 explosions per minute
48k/min * 1min/60sec = 800
Or perhaps I completley misunderstand how an internal combustion engine works, which is entirely possible.
Each cylinder only explodes (ignites) every other rotation of the crank shaft. The in-between motion is the exhaust phase of the cycle.
I knew I had no idea about what I was talking about...
