Keeping with the Tom Countryman theme, the link goes to Tom’s movie “The Ice Race” from the 1958 St. Paul Winter. 9 minutes. It features Tom’s 1953 Normal Coupe #10 which we believe is the first Porsche in Minnesota.
Calling the race is Frank Buetel, who for those of you my age, will immediately hear the Minnesota Boys State Hockey Tournament. Flashbacks to my youth watching “State” in B&W. Note he pronounces Porsche properly. The other interesting name in the credits is Archie Walker, Jr. He was the first Porsche dealer in Minnesota and part of the Walker Art Institute family.
