Thread: The Germans made a 5-minute video about my old 911

  1. #1

    The Germans made a 5-minute video about my old 911

    This is the English-language version of a clip that aired on Auto Bild television this weekend in Germany. It's about my history with my 911, and also my ongoing obsession with making the car quicker at my home track, Willow Springs.



    The clip was made by Dani Heyne and Justin Evidon. They also got these three pictures the day we were shooting at Willow Springs. Ugly aero disclaimer: the wing, side skirts and splitter all unbolt and stow inside the car for the drive home.

    Cool,

    As I said Olsen sounds nordic, it is a german car, your pause is self explanatory and the walls are orange - Clearly nordic.
    Have you considered to move to the right side of the world ?

    Cheers

    Jack,

    I know how hard is it to gain just a tenth of a second at Willow. Great job on the 1:26.

    I wadded up my favorite E30 M3 on turn 9 and your video makes me want to get back into it.

    Thanks for sharing the stoke,
