Unfortunately I'm not sure. The History Channel does post some full episodes of their shows on their site, but it's unclear if that will include The Perfect Road. You may want to check back with them or email them: History.com — American & World History

I'll admit that I watched the show. I might watch two hours of tv in a month so it was kind of a big deal for me to make time for this. And I have an alterior motive for watching.

Other than Walker's own car no 911's appeared. It was kind of a random selection of cars, roads, and even an off road truck. I was hoping for more early 911 content but that's just my specific interest. I mistakenly thought from the trailer that he was going around with other Porsche owners and driving their favorite roads with them. I do understand that he's marketing to a mass audience so he's gotta show a wide range of cars. Seemed like an enormous amount of commercials but maybe that's because I usually only watch soccer games on tv where's there's zero commercials.

Walker seems to have a decent amount of wit about him and isn't too cheesy like many other car show guys. I'll prolly watch it again just on the off chance some early 911's are featured.

And Walker if you're listening, Southern California doesn't even come close to the best roads. Arkansas has this title definitively. Why? Arkansas was the last state to adopt right of way. The government could not force the sale of land to build a road, if a farmer wanted the road around his property they had to do it. This coupled with the hilly landscape makes the finest driving there is.

Part on Emory was ok minus the truck scene. Bill Goldberg part was pointless as well as the Vault scene. Still beats all the fake reality shows building cars for fake customers like ass monkey garage et.

I was expecting more "Porsche stuff", guess that would narrow the audience down.? The wrestler bit was a little odd. I'm sure it will get better. Tim
