Anyone see the "Rides" episode featuring Porsche? Lots of CGT video at Talledega Speedway. Even shows Jay Leno losing it big time in a CGT at 170mph. He spins five rotations without hitting a wall. Crazy. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wacko.gif)

See the other thread. He was luckier than the last guy that lost it at Ca Motor Speedway, going 160 plus! The Cap'n

Wasnt too hard to fall asleep. It was about 5 minutes worth of material. Did you know James Dean was killed in his Porsche. I didnt know that untill the show told me 100 times.

I was up working when that came on. Had to watch over the top of my laptop. Jay was cool about it, but i am sure that his butt sucked up enough leather to taste it. He didn't even stop for the other GT that was headed to see if he was ok.
I then watched a really cool ralley in Austrailia. 1200 miles. A lot of really fun looking cars. Anybody up for it? Gimme two years to save the $ do my conversion, ship the car (Round trip) and buy plane tickets. Anybody else want to go? |
