Video clip -- Porsche 908/3!

Here's an awesome clip of a 908/3 being put through its paces at Laguna Seca.

Matt;
You're usually right on top of things in the Pelican world, but I guess you missed this thread from a couple of days ago.

Never the less, it is an awesome video!

Windows normally caches the file when you have downloaded. Check the 'Windows\Temporary Internet Files' directory and you might seethe XX.mov file there. Cut / Copy it out to a safer directory.

Great video! I can't find any results for the car from Laguna Seca, though-- anybody know what kind of lap times he was turning? He didn't seem to be pushing the car that hard (though who can blame him!)
