Seems like an unefficient way to drive fast. Too much coffee!:t

Porsches are notorious for oversteer (tail wagging).  That being said, that guy looks like he's having a hard time keep it under control, pretty sloppy driving.
Didn't know you could take on the Nurburgring without a helmet.

Driving cars is not something that gives me any pleasure beyond getting me from A to B, but Porsche cars actually has the ability to give me a tiny grin on my face. :)  The older Porsches are abit heavy in the ass, but they fixed that a few models back (dont ask me what model they fixed it in). I have driven many models over the years when i have been in italy and they have something i cant really explain or put my finger on... but it gives me that small grin.

Porsches are awesome, I agree.  That looks like an older one.
I do love my 05 Mustang GT, it's just all guts and no class.  Shifter kinda sucks though.

New RUF RK that is in the works.   Tailwagging or not, I'd almost give my right nut to drive this for a day.

440hp, a 45%/55% f/r weight ratio and gorgeous.

After all, they made the AWD version of the 911 to help us, the regular street drivers to be more safer.:)
