This came off a VHS tape so I am not sure how to get a "better Quality" one. Anyone have a suggestion?

Better quality will unavoidably result to bigger file size.
Bigger file size to longer download time.
Longer download time will result to higher internet bandwidth.
Higher bandwidth will cause higher fees from your web hoster.
If someone would want to have a better quality viewing experience I quess a right thing to do would be to shop for DVD or VHS media. As a side benefit, buying this film would support filmmakers who made it.

Funny, the voiceover sounds like Peter Finch (but he died in '77) in that movie "Network" .
I can hear "I'm mad as hell and I'm not going to take it anymore" somewhere in the background.

Thanks for posting!

Thanks for pulling it off VHS and sharing! It's clear that it's time to get back into 993!

"...looking fot things that weren't created to be something to everyone... but everything, to someone..."

That sentence says a lot. And that for sure can not be said about Porsches (at least this side of Carrera GT & GT2, GT3) anymore!

It's a great video, I have it (in VHS...) too. Time to put it in DVD!

Yes, the tapes appear on eBay.

The best way to view it is on a 8 foot by 5 foot screen in your living room with the sound cranked up modestly.

My German Shepherd dog actually jumped into the air in a vain attempt to get out of the way of the speeding car when the 993 on the track first came right at her. Scared her breathless for a moment.
