a fake as you don't why defoe's. one striking feature is the rear spoiler which made its debut on the artist premium model known among german fans as the. he took a fall was head of development and a test drive engineer for porsche he shares the credit for the. first the r.s. went through extensive testing in the wind tunnel threats of wool where attached to make air turbulence visible. income or there are limits to what you can measure in a wind tunnel you can do much more on the track. we tested in hockenheim to find
2:44 am
out how the top speed changes when you place the spoiler higher or lower and would you believe it comes down to 10 or 15 millimeters that make all the difference in top speed or control if you went to high with the spoiler control was great but top speed was considerably lower because the air resistance was too strong. this was a car for advanced drivers uncomfortable loud and expensive. originally all 500 cars were built away well under 1000. dollars and you can do that by leaving out everything you don't really need. and. there was no sound insulation no rust protection no all round interior lining. it was even

supposed to have a thinner body. but that would mean cars you can't drive comfortably on the road. when porsche presented the turbo charger to the public the 911 climbed to new heights. the turbo coupe a 3.0 put everything else in the shade. zoo. 100 k. in just 5.2 seconds not for the faint hearted or the beginner. 991 world rally champion volatile world was playing catch up on the 911 s c turbo in the san remo rally. for several days he made up more and more ground on the leaders. the for the last stage he was just 2 minutes behind his
2:46 am
rivals and this looked like he might do it. when disaster struck and his drive shaft broke. he still calls it the most bitter breakdown of his career. everyone used to say it's for men not boys you hit the gas and it took ages to get going that was the problem with the car but it was also the challenge for me was for the you had to be hitting the accelerator as you went into the curve so that you had enough power coming out and that gave the skilled driver an advantage but it freaked normal people out fresh off the. horse show was aware of the problem too. but we were all good drivers and we all said the same after testing true it's difficult to drive we need to work

on it and the car gradually got better and year by year with better tires wider tires with different tuning and matching of springs and shock absorbers and stabilizers and a couple that are all the time and i think mr really was happy with it in the end to. it's afraid. the 911 forever in the add on card even 30 years ago the porsche 959 had an antilock brakes regulated shock absorbers and permanent all wheel drive with a top speed of 315 kilometers an hour it was the fastest series produced car in the world with official wrote approval it was only offered to a select group of customers. the 996 changed everything the aero of air cooled flat engines was coming to an end the 1st liquid cooled 911 went on the market and critics predicted the end of the 911 fuel i'm still on the move to
2:48 am
switch from air cooled to liquid cooled engine was basically because of the exhaust problem and the noise problem when to go if you have an air cooled engine it's all very simple as it's going to sell you have a fan that blows air in is used to do fine but the fan makes a lot of noise and you have nothing around the cylinder to insulate the sound. hippias around the whole thing with a liquid jacket it gets quieter and the cylinder heads are cooled better to look at for can the end because they were the 2 basic reasons for the switch from air cooled to liquid cooled in the 96 series you've also accrued only by the ballboy i'm on 6 of them. but the 911 remained popular on the road and on the track this g.t. 3 has 415 horsepower and a 3.6 liter flat 6 engine. and the road version
