I don't think the first one is a Turbo, if it is I wish mine were that responsive.

There was comment about that in the further down on the page:
"This is a 1991 964 Carrera RS with turbo body-kit. It's the standard 3.6L becouse it doesn't sound like the 3.8L and that is also very rare. There is no turbo on this car ,the whine is from the race transmission. If I remember corectly ,this is a group B rally car ,so it has around 400bhp" The highlight of the second video comes at 5:00 when the orange car does a standing start at night. he starts a few hundred yards away (car revs like a 2-stroke) and he's doing about 1-90 by the time he goes by the camera. sent shivers up my spine!

Sorry, couldn't resist. I agree, some of the spectators are crazier than the drivers. If I were a driver, those spectators would scare the ***** out of me.

Anyone know where that is?
And how big are the navigator's balls - how do you ever get comfortable with that???
