"can't find a Porsche connection, but..."

Of course there is a connection! Look at the name!

"ORCS" There are just a couple of letters missing and mixed up
add a "P" =PORCS, move the "S" = PORSC, then just add "H & E"

Voila! "PORSCHE" I'm surprised you missed it!

(OK, Maybe I need to get out more.)

Now you sound like a 914 owner....


Everytime we look at a air cooled 911, we think "Donor Car!"

sorry to hear/see about your car Scott...seems like the fun runs you guys do aren't too C2/C2 look friendly, as I lost a front bumper (and then some) doing Monster Run II back in '04

My guess would be that this was a fully controlled descent to evaluate what would happen in the event of a hard landing?
