Thrashing a 911 around Le Mans in 1971! (as well as Long Tails, Short Tails and ST's)
Here's a cool video of the 1971 Le Mans race. In addition to the above, there are some nice views of the "Pink Pig" and cameos by Pedro Rodríguez, Richard Attwood and Helmut Bott, as well as many others. But I think that the best part is the pace laps in the Porsche 911 -- you can really see and hear how the driver is hustling the car to keep the pace up for the field. When he finally pulls off into the pits you get a sense of how fast the 917's are in comparison as they take off for the start!
