Great video.. shows what an awesome day it was.

However, I'm never a fan of music in car videos. I'd like to hear the car.



Me to, yet we were enjoying the drive, and talking during the drive. Hard to be quiet while having so much fun.

Who shot this video, Walter?


My wife. I thought she did ok. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)


Much better than okay. It's perfect. The sight of Tim's tribute to the 1973 Mosport Pace Car coming down to the start/finish line makes for a nice comparison to the historic shot from the 1973 Can Am. If only the driver's side flag didn't go flying away along the Mario Andretti Straightaway. At least nobody's car got whacked by it!
Thanks for posting the video!!!!

CAN/AM 2019 #Getting on the Track




OMG John,
I've been eager to see what you'd turn out and am so happy you were able to put this together. Love the start with all the vivid color.
Today's my birthday and this is the best present ever! Well, apart from my fishing rod when I was a kid.
Unbelievable job from a very talented guy! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/first.gif)
Thanks,
The other John T.

PS If you consider going to Mont-Tremblant for the Jacques Duval tribute on September 28-29, you know you've got lots of friends here happy to put you up for the first leg of the journey and the return trip!!

And with that last post I finally lose my "newbie" status - Finally, after 13 years on here and 32 years of 914 ownership! Another great birthday surprise. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif)

Happy Birthday, John!

The start of our parade laps on the historic Mosport track to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the Porsche 914. and things start to fall off the car almost immediately...namely, a camera.

All engine sounds and yakking preserved for you, Walter!

John T., we may not have got useful video from that camera, but at least we have our commentary about losing it.

And I have a few more recorded comments, more videos coming soon.

Just want to say again what a great time we had.
I had a preconceived notion that there might be a few Porsche "snobs" that would turn their nose up at my car... I know it's a long way out from how most people would want theirs to be. Keep in mind most of the work on this car was done long before I bought it, and that the body was built out of 2 different cars to begin with. I wouldn't have built the car this way, but I did buy it this way (mostly).
If their was any of that (and I don't think there was) people kept it to themselves. People just asked questions, and showed I think genuine interest.
Great bunch of people to hang with! Looking forward to getting together again in the future. Don't think we'll make Mont Tremblant though.

last weekend - celebrating 914 50th.. rare treat.
this weekend - just upstaging 911s again.. ho hum.
Guys, in seriousness, I spoke to PCA UCR president Michael Pohlmann at this morning’s Cars & Coffee in Mississauga (see pic). He is practically begging us to show our 914s at the Concours event Labour Day weekend in Burlington. btw - prizes and logo’d t’s will be 914-themed. He was so persuasive that I just registered. See you there.

Hi Tony. We'll send pics.
How is that Creamsicle doing? We Canadians here in the Great White North loved it and thank you again for bringing it last weekend. It has me thinking of returning my car to its original Phoenix Red someday. (I just KNOW you have heard of this colour.. yes, we use a "u" in that word - haha.)
