Went to Queensland Raceway today to watch a bit of history from the Porsche Museum going around the track.

The famous Martini colours wrapped around the fabulous 935 'Moby Dick'! 1050Kg, 825hp, 366kph in 1978. The cylinders were welded to the heads!!🤪 What a race car!!

Sweet stuff.
Saw the same roadshow in Tassie at the lonford revival and targa tasmania. Once in a life time stuff, unless making the journey to Germany...

A RHD Roadster............very rare!👍

I'd rather wear a Beetle out by racing it than by polishing it!
