In this particular video he was relying mostly on the builders of the car. Possibly you should look at his general output to actually form a judgement?gridgway wrote:Mind you, I don't think he had a lot to say, I wasn't very impressed.BILLY BEAN wrote: Me too.

Possibly, but I'm not commenting on his other output! I just thought he had little insightful to say.

1977 video of 914/6 race car testing at Laguna Seca - lovely period footage (and soundtrack). Check the other cars on track and in the pits. Wonderful.

1970 Watkins Glen 6 Hrs. No sound just some dodgy music, lots of Porsche, but it features on Meaney Racing and their 914.

I don't know about the car itself but it makes for a virtually unwatchable video. In fact I turned it off after a minute.911hillclimber wrote:Well, what do we think of this little volts-only '911' race car?

I'm looking for a pre-impact bumper 911S or other high-revving 911 to restore - please let me know if you see one.

Looks to me like they just got the sound balance wrong with one mic in the cabin. Harris with a helmet on trying to commentate against the noise of the car. It is very unpleasant just like Formula E, but they didn't help themselves!RobFrost wrote:I don't know about the car itself but it makes for a virtually unwatchable video.

Good to see the Hoonigan looking on the bright side of grenading his 1400hp Pike's Peak engine

Re: porsche vid. of the day
Found this in YT, a great 20 mins of non commentary film, just the occasional conversation and plenty of engine noise, shot at the 1972 Nurburgring 1000 Kms. The Toad Hall ST appears along with other 911s and a 908/3. Lots of pre race paddock shots, so plenty of details to see.
