Hi !

Thought I would share this, I bought the folder on ebay since I coudlnt find so much info about the event. And why not share it ?

Its in german, but ran it through google translate, and it was an austrian car organisation who challenged the car manufacturers to do 37000 km on 31 days. Only porsche dared to show up with the 931. The engine and gearbox was sealed and of they went. Quite an achievment I must say !!!


Here are is my gettoscan(digital camera) of the folder, enjoy !
(If you are to lazy to translate it just look at the cool pictures .

So Porsche was the sole participator in this challenge? And they came up with the 931? Who said the germans don't have a sense of humour

LOL ! and WOW !
Now the 931 has two (almost)records under its belt, this around the world endurance record and the high speed record (that prototype that was to go against the Mercedes C111)

I feel proud to own such a car, and it feels good to say that mine always take me on long drives without problems.

Thanks for sharing !
