Velocity TV – Episode 7 from Velocity Magazine on Vimeo.

Velocity TV was invited to take part in the John Force Holiday Car Show, held at John Force Racing Shop in Yorba Linda, CA. The John Force Racing Shop is home to one of the most legendary teams in NHRA history.

John Force is famous for being not only one of drag racing’s most successful drivers, but also one of its biggest personalities. Today he opened up his shop to have his annual car show which benefits the CHP’s annual toy drive. Force is known to be not only a gearhead, but for having a soft spot for children. Last year, this event collected over 7,000 gifts for the CHP’s toy drive, and attracted 25,000 attendees and hundreds of muscle cars.

This year, the Force team rangled up a special bunch of auotmotive’s most recognizable faces to take part in this special charity event.

The Porsche Museum hangs over Stuttgart’s Porscheplatz. Classic models, race cars, and a restoration workshop tell the story of the world’s smallest independent car company.

Here’s some of my favorites!

Here’s some tid bits from the site:
Our factory museum in Stuttgart-Zuffenhausen is set up entirely in accordance with the Porsche company motto: “small but good”. Here, 20 or so legendary exhibits provide an insight into the development of the car at Porsche. From series cars rich in tradition, via prototypes to top-flight sports cars that write history – the various models are switched several times a year.
