Default Good 928 Hill Climb Video Somewhere in Italy

What year do you think that is? No passenger side mirror, yet it has rubbies. Can't be a '78 then, right?

Fun to watch! Thanks for posting it.

Regarding year of car? Rubbies, no passenger mirror or spoilers...

After this many years, who knows what fun combination it represents???

How do collect this kind of information from a license plate?
There is a car that I would like to know about, registration DK 911 HG. This is not a 928

That was pretty cool Nate. Reminds me of The Fall Mountain Drive we used to do In 928 Specialists neck of the woods in North Carolina, with DR leading the pack. Very similar roads. Of course ours wasn't a Hill Climb. It was Hill Climb, blast the straights, and Hill Decent. LOL.

It appears that he wasn't real familiar with the car when he first started out. As he went on and got more familiar, he got much smoother and faster through the curves.

Cool video

Yes! I was there to watch him! Saw him driving home after practice on the Saturday. Many guys did not get off the line without some initial bog down, but some of the 911s were singing all the way, right on cam. Quite a few squirmed off the line too, and we were very close - nearly blew my ears out. See my 2 pics on the 'spotted' thread of yesterday. This is the Scarperia-Giogi hill climb, just above Mugello track.
