Victory By Design - Porsche

It was on the Speed Channel last night, 9:00-10:00 PM.

Why didn't anyone post a thread?

I could of recorded the whole thing, just caught the last half.

Anyone know when it will be on next?

I really liked the Alfa one last year, learned a lot.

We've all seen them dozens of times...

I think the road version of the 962 is the sexiest car...ever.

The black car was da bomb.

I'm sure I'll be catching the first 25 minutes sooner or later, thanks for the DVD offer. I would of ordered the DVD from the show but everyone said the "sound" was not as good as the others in the collection. They should fix that if they want money for it.

Willing to do another? If so, I'll send you a disc. We wouldn't want anyone to think you were trying to make money off of it....

Yeah, that was a nice surprize after our PCA bonfire/get together last night.
Made me want to put mine back together today INSTEAD of cleaning the stupid leaves in the yard.

Did you record it?

Something like that would be cool to project up on the wall before the food is served at the holiday RSR Rally club dinner.

I think the graphics at the bottom of the screen were wrong a few times. Anyone else catch them?

I don't have a projector, nor can I brorrow one.

It will have to be a strong one with decent background lighting in the room.

I'm thinking no sound so people can still talk and ignore it if they choose (wives and people talking shop).

We need one (or two?) large white walls so we don't have to fuss with screens. Perhaps a big roll of white paper will do.

Are you sure last night's was a repeat. Tivo claimed it was made in 2006, and I didn't remember seeing this one before.

It needed some 914-6 GT content.
Heavy hitters at LeMans, you know?

I believe the only hint was the shot from inside an orange car.

It was great! I was whooped from cutting firewood, and doing leaves all day then being let down by the Stillers. I was about to go to bed when I found it. I was glued to the screen for the remainder. Made me fire the old girl up today and take her for a spirited ride through the twisties around here. Soon she will be sleeping.
