Hi Pete,

Did you see the video of that thing going around the Nürburgring a couple
of months ago? I have a feeling the driver has been around there a few
times before.

Also check out the Turbo Cayenne doing 300km/h on the autobahn starting
at the 1m55s mark on the previous YouTube link I posted. Don't try this
at home.

Having saved up and thinking you had found a prescription for some
mid-life crises, it would be just one's luck if someone then overtook you
on the autobahn in their Porsche 919 Hybrid doing 350km/h
