Subscribe: https://www.youtube.com/porscheclubof... Visit: https://www.pca.org ----------------------------------------- Before Tiptronic or PDK, there was Sportomatic, Porsche's optional transmission for the 911 (and 914-6) that didn't need a clutch pedal.

Watch this video to find out how the Sportomatic works, with special guest Charles Navarro of LN Engineering putting his own Sportomatic transmission in the spotlight. ----------------------------------------- Instagram:   / pcanational   Facebook:   / porscheclubofamerica   Twitter:   / pcanational
