I bet he would have gotten a little bit more power out of it if he hadn't set the deck height so close.

"Restored" - except for the hot rod engine, non-original paint color, and disc brake modifications. I'll bet the "camphor" cut pistons and .00030 deck height really made that engine scream, for a few seconds.

It's amazing the passenger was alive after the wreck. Not sure about later though...

Fatal collision: The Porsche driver crashed into an electricity pylon Source: dpa / Schmelzer


In an accident in Swabia, a man was fatal and his passenger was seriously injured. Her car got off the road in a slight right-hand bend and crashed into an electricity pylon, the police said.

The Porsche brand car was probably driven at higher speed on Saturday afternoon, it was said.

The 46-year-old driver died after the accident in Derching (Aichach-Friedberg district) in the hospital, the 45-year-old passenger is in mortal danger, according to the police.

Random pix.
