Re: cool racing photos
Should probably belong in the space thread but more will probably find it here.
Astronaut Drew Feustel returned to Earth overnight. His Twitter feed is full of images taken from the ISS of various race tracks around the world.
Ive only found these on his Tiwitter, if anyone finds a link to higher res images it would be great to see them.

If it is I'm just not sure if it is a 917K or the 917/30 1500bhp beast they did with Audi...

917k..
Those guys had seriously large balls. Imagine hitting the wall doing 200km/h with that flimsy tube.. Mental.

Re: cool racing photos
Most of those cars were non-runners and Porsche never even finished them. Just enough to get the car homologated.

James May just did a film on it in the latest Grand Tour. Want to see a 78 year old drive one?
