October 2013

October has arrived and with it the end of summer. For many now comes the colder Autumn days. All is definitely not lost for us Porsche enthusiasts. A cold, bright and dry Autumn day makes for great driving days. Throttle response is often improved with the cold air into the combustion chambers and even the exhaust note changes in the denser air. Porsche celebrations have continued to mark the 50th anniversary for the 911, and of course P101tv members have captured many Porsche moments in video and pictures for us all to see. We've also added more features this month, including a Porsche Press area, a weekly digest, Twitter feeds for tweeters and a shiny new text editor for you to add your comments.

This month's "Porsche on the Cover" is not a Porsche, it's DaveLee's newly built monster Porsche 935 engine. Head over and take a look at this truely awesome Porsche engine now. You won't see too many of these in your lifetime.

Nurburgring fast Forward

We all know the Nurburgring is a formindable race track. Not least because of the shear number of twists and turns that you have to remember. P101tv member Brian911s has uploaded a great little video of a lap of the Nurburgring in fast forward. If your planning on a visit in your Porsche take a look at this first.


A Shiney New Text Editor

It's been long overdue, but we are pleased to say that Channel P101tv now has a brand new shiney text editor. You'll see the new editor when you leave comments on a video, picture, profile, article or write an internal email. The old editor was getting a bit tired and wasn't working as it should in some web browsers. The editor is the latest technology and should work accross all browsers. So hopefully leaving comments will be more fun!

Porche Made a 3.2 Carrera Commemorative Edition

The Porsche 911 3.2 Carrera is an 'Icon' among 'Icons' in the 911 series. The 3.2 Carrera was produced between 1984 and 1989, but many enthusiasts consider those produced between 1987 and 1989 to be the most desirable. In 1988, 25 years after the presentation of the original 901, Porsche introduced a limited series of Anniversary models based on the Carrera 3.2.
