Pretty cool. I was at that exact location two weeks ago. Too bad I missed the donut.

welcoming Porsche back to le mans is a bit like letting the fox in the hen house...Porsche owns le mans. is seems audi may have forgotten.

Audi hasn't forgotten - they're just welcoming some exciting competition in true sportsmanlike fashion. This should be a good race...

Cool video and nice gesture!
I'm trying. Not to expect too much from this first year from Porsche.
Complex cars and not a lot of development or racing time on the package yet.
Stoked the management decided to let this happen.. Audi vs Porsche

Cool! An old fashioned "call out".

Back in my street racing days we would do a similar thing in front of a competitor's house. I was woken up several times by a big ol' burnout in front of MY house as well.

Good times.

yes it was...AFAIK, they came in 4 sizes each with one more cylinder than the previous, all air-cooled, all diesel. Junior-1 cyl, standard, super, master-4 cyl.
