I saw this show last night, I didn't realize it was going to be on b/c I wasn't here reading all day like usual. Good stuff. I wish I hadn't missed RRII. Everytime I learn more about Porsche's racing history (and racing histroy is general) I appreciate my car more. I saw almost the whole show, but wasn't watching for DayTony, how the hell did I miss him???

Can someone explain to me (since I know little about the sport) why they would be highlighting a speacial series of cars (908, 917, etc) and there would be 911's in the competition? Are those sponsored other race teams (ie. not the factory) so technically you could beat the Porsche company with one of their own cars?
