Anyone else read the article in the current Panorama where Valentin Schäffer mentions that Porsche had him (secretly) build two turbo cars in 1970, one 911 and one 914-6?
I wonder what ever happened to that car and if anyone out there has some more info on it ... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) |

If Porsche already had two turbo test mules in 1970, then I am rather shocked that Donohue had to spend so much time on the 917/10’s turbos.
