For those that get SpeedVision Network... @ 8:00 pm eastern time there is a one hour show on. Not sure if it's been on before, but thought I'd pass the info along...

Just thought I would pass along that it was on TV... mostly highlighted Porsche's racing victories and their 911 and derivatives.... no mention of us water boys

Not a bad show. Great if you ever wondered what the difference between and 904 and a 908 was. The Jaguar show was better IMO. I've never seen more commercials in an hour show before in my life.

though i've read a couple books detailing porsche's racing history, i still found the program quite enjoyable. i'm sure a lot of people would also enjoy a special discussing all of porsche's models, instead of just the racing vehicles. come on, speed channel.

I watched the show about citroen 's history . 1 car citroen made in 34 looked like a VW bug ,it even had the tortion bar suspension , and another looked like a full grown 911 . It had me wondering if Dr.porsche had been " Borrowing " his designs from citroen .

The latter is the Citroen DS. It came along a just a hair's breadth too late for it to have been an influence to Porsche for the 911.
