Thanx Mr. Mudd for the hosting. Three short 15 second(2.5 meg) videos for your viewing pleasure.

OK, first vid, Krewstown Road, extremely twisty and hilly(unfortunately very short in length). Light drizzling conditions(just to add a little challenge). Check out the trees as they quickly become a blur when i first punch it.....whoosh.

Be sure to TURN UP THE VOLUME on your computer. In real life, the Hemi that lives inside the 928, breathing through a custom Borla stainless 3" exhaust is REAL loud, lol. Porsches sound best that way.

Second vid is the same road, about 20 minutes later in much wetter conditions. A few fishtails and excessive wheel spin are the result, lol. Still sounds cool though, lol.

OK, this one is just a 100 foot holeshot pulling out of a parking lot when we were first figuring out how the video thingy worked. Sounds cool though, lol.

Remember, to get the full(and realistic) effect, turn your puter up pretty loud. My 928 hits about 100db under full throttle.

Sounds like it.

I think a half decent video camera would've gone a long way too, lol.

That was a cheapie i used to film this, but it still came out semi-decent.

Great Videos, the phone call on the last one was such a nice touch.

Remind me next time we get together and i'll show you the fun twisty roads to play on near my house, theres much less traffic out here in the suburbs <img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>!

Snipe, I guess your friends aren't like a lot of mine...

If someone would've called me and I replied with "Can you call me back in 20 minutes? We're in my car making a video," there would've been an entirely different reaction...

'Nuff said.

Oh, and a P.S. - I showed one of these vids to another car enthusiast up here at work (he collects/rebuilds classic muscle cars), and I think his comments were something like this:

"Yeah, that sounds nice... what the... it's <i>raining</i> out there! Fuckin' idiot..."

Yeah, that's Snipe alright... <img src=newicons/anim_lol.gif border=0 align=middle> (Just kiddin' buddy)

Rain + Porsche + Curve = Exhillarating.

Rain + American hotrod + curve = trip in ambulance.

LOL

It does afterall rain a lot in Germany. The 928 is made to cruise at 140 in the rain all day long.

"Rain + Porsche + Curve = Exhillarating."

Even more exhillarirating when you fish tailed going on to the bridge with other cars nearby and didn't even slid on your seat. Gotta love those racing seats.

Now thats what i call fun! <img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>

another Exhillarating experince is fish tailing on a wet bridge and then hit the side, because it's a one lane road and have to call your mom to have her pick you and your friends up and then have her find out your not in school and... oh.
