Thank you! Now I'll have to do double duty at work to give me enough time to watch this (again and again)!

Thanks, that made my morning...I'm going to go get more coffee and play on the car now.
Cheers to the new old stock footage and soundtrack
Jeers to the crap editing
Them were the days. Porsche, Porsche, Porsche, Matra Simcas, Renault Alpines, Opel GTR, Alfas...
Thanks for the link, that was very cool. I watched it yesterday on my phone while eating lunch. The sound was off and I was really enjoying it, there are some interesting prototypes and factory mules in there, if only shown for a second or two. I was looking forward to watching it again when I got home, and watching it a second time I found that the schizophrenic sound track detracted from the great footage, as chopped up as it is. Works better with the sound off I think.
loved the sound track ----
of the flat sixes singing at revs!
not so much the Dr. of toe nail removal and spleen splitter's night moves muzac
the white dash 912 is mesmerizing
the red RS handling ? off the freakin' chart ,
of un-reality,
but its still GREAT
and I don't think I can ever get enough of those 901's drifting around , and around, and......
or the 'dangerous' apex shots of folks doing stupid things while spectating. Before crowd control, race track rules, and safety marshals......how did not all those people die ?
spectacular stuff, I will dream well tonite.
A love story...
At 1:22 it can be seen that the 911 had a "plastic" wheel. So far I always thought that all 911 (up to Aug 66 / MY67) had a wood wheel. Apparently some cars, or at least the factory driver preferred a "plastic" wheel.
BTW it must have been a true test car since it already had over 20K kilometers (approx 14K miles). Also 4 button dash, early style dash wood, no 911 dash insignia, no stickers in the engine bay.
Thanks for posting.
