Just a Dream: Driving an Ex-Trans Am 911L on the Street

6/22/20169:29 estFiled to: VideosBy: Chris CushingComment

Some cars are destined for an easy life right from the start. Spike Feresten's Trans Am 1968 Porsche 911L is not one of those cars. Delivered to Sebring in 1968, this car was prepared for racing in just ten hours. The car went on to be featured in Porsche advertising thanks to a photo taken at its very first race. Originally raced by Fred Baker, …

Truth in 1/32: Mark Webber Provides A Slot Car Guide to Le Mans.

6/17/201610:09 estFiled to: FIA World Endurance ChampionshipBy: Chris CushingComment

Mark Webber may be larger than life in many respects, the man's motorsport career spans three decades, and he's not yet forty years old. Red Bull shrank the legendary racing driver down to 1/32nd scale to help put the enormity of Le Mans in perspective. With the help of both Richard Attwood and a Carrera slot car representation of Atwood's 1970 Le …

Build the [LEGO] Porsche of Your Dreams & Win A Trip To The Porsche Museum

6/13/20164:31 estFiled to: Porsche ContestsBy: Chris CushingComment

For many of us, our first Porsche was rather smaller than 1:1 scale. Whether made by Maisto, or nipped from Revell's sprues and glued together, most of our "first" Porsches were tabletop-friendly. Hot on the heels of several Porsche-themed kits, and the release of the 911 GT3 RS Technic kit, LEGO and ReBrik have launched a new contest. In the new …

5 Factors That Go Into Porsche’s 24 Hours of Le Mans Racing Strategy

6/10/20169:17 estFiled to: FIA World Endurance ChampionshipBy: Chris CushingComment

In less than two weeks time Porsche will be competing in the 24 Hours of Le Mans. The team has competed continually since the early 1950s, and this is their 3rd outing in the 919 Hybrid. While every year is important, this year is especially so as Porsche are both theĀ current title defenders and the leaders in both the manufacturers' and drivers' …

Enthusiastic Driving Will Ensue: The 2015 Targa Baja California

6/8/201610:31 estFiled to: Porsche ToursBy: Chris Cushing1 Comment

We didn't make it to the Targa Baja California, but after seeing this film put together by one of the participants we wish we had. 62 classic cars tearing through the hills of the Baja Peninsula is a sight to behold. This event reminds us of the Carrera Panamericana or the Targa New Zealand for us mere mortals not possessed of race teams. …

Making sense of the numbers; the Porsche 917 film cars.

6/3/201612:21 estFiled to: Porsche 917By: Chris Cushing3 Comments

All told Porsche produced 59 917s*. Over the course of the model's run it came in a wide variety of shapes and sizes. With turbochargers, without turbochargers, short tail, long tail, with and without a roof. The 917's history is so varied, it even raced a decade after its heyday under the Kremer banner. With such a wide array of 917s built and …

Porsche Classic Navigation Retrofit now available in USA and Canada

6/1/201610:41 estFiled to: OptionsBy: Chris CushingComment

Aftermarket single-DIN headunits have been available with bluetooth, XM and USB connectivity for some time, but aftermarket systems often carry the burden of clumsy interfaces with showy graphics which are a poor match for Porsche interiors. Early last year, Porsche debuted an OEM solution for integrating modern navigation and infotainment features …

Crossed Up: Sideways in a GT3 RS

5/29/20165:09 estFiled to: Porsche GT2/GT3By: Chris Cushing1 Comment

Porsche might not be a brand that normally comes to mind when talking about drifting, but Porsche drivers have been pitching their cars sideways for decades. From the 356, through to the most modern 918 Spyder drifting on ice, Porsches are no strangers to big angles. D. Rawberts takes being crossed up to a whole new level, however, with a wild …

Porsche 917K- CFD designs can’t compare…

5/29/20162:00 estFiled to: Porsche 917By: Chris Cushing1 Comment

... Aesthetically, at least. 1970 was the 917's first truly successful year of racing, thanks to the efforts of John Wyer's Gulf team to improve the car's aerodynamics. After noting an absence of dead gnats on the car's rear bodywork during testing, Wyer's chief engineer cobbled together new rear bodywork in the pits from scrap aluminum. The new …
