RE: Rendezvous - Car

["Duff, Ian" <iduff@charter.com>]

The race film is "LeMans", an all time classic. There is one scene where he
is in one of the John Wyer Gulf 917 Porsches (my all time favorite looking
car) and comes around a corner several warp factors faster than some lowly
non-917, and in trying to avoid it stuffs the 917 into the Armco. Painful
slo-mo of the 917 shedding body parts...
