Gilbert Posted September 21, 2007 Author Share Posted September 21, 2007 Saw the title to this thread and thought - wow - I didn't know Porsche ever made Turntables. How sad am I? Maxy, it's 3:45am over here, go back to bed.[] Kaizer, the 959 is my favorite of all time porsche's. That car still, to this day, still holds the fast ever recorded lap times around Germany's famed Nurburgring. The trecherous old course too. It is reported that the 4wd system plays the biggest in the cars ability (driver too) in achieving that, well that and engine/drivetrain combos monsterous torque band. Not to mention the suspensions ability to plant the power to the road. I think I recall only 3 or 4 of those cars ever making to this side of the atlantic. Thanks to the NHTSA for telling us what is safe and what is not safe on our public roads. Bunch of moron beaurocrats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
