Default What kind of BOV was this?

Im at a light and this older (i say late 80's early 90's, but I really dont know the MY of these cars) MR2 pulls up to me. We take off and he starts getting a little jumpy and blows off, but it sounded STRANGE.
It was like bbbrrrrroooowwwwwwwooohhhhhhhhhh , sounded just like an old steam engine train when they pull into a staion - really long. All others i have heard in the past where like ppsssssttttttt, cool sounding , was something wrong with his.
Just curious.

FWIW - He ended up "winning", I'm not going to go faster than 60 on city streets .
