The Last Turn – A Spyder of a Different Color

11/1/201510:49 estFiled to: Porsche PhotographyBy: Leonard Turner

Quick, picture the LMP2 RS Spyder that gave Porsche a long row of wins. Likely you just saw one of the vivid yellow Penske cars. But the racing successes did not all come in a yellow wrapper; deprived of the chance for an overall win at Le Mans in 2008 by the addition of 50 kg of weight and a reduction in fuel capacity by a sanctioning body not …

The Last Turn – The-Hole-in-the-Wall

10/19/20158:16 estFiled to: Porsche PhotographyBy: Leonard Turner

There was once a magic portal through which I could see some of the greatest cars of all times. Cut through what then passed as a catch-fence at Daytona, the roughly two by five foot slot looked out on the last big turn before the cars headed for the start-finish line, and being there concentrated the noise, smell, dirt, color, and excitement of …

The Last Turn – The 962 Years

10/5/20159:02 estFiled to: Porsche PhotographyBy: Leonard Turner

The age of the 962 was an exciting time for those of us who were devoted to Porsche and its racing successes. It was not that the 934/935 time had been a bad one; there was a lot of satisfaction in seeing cars that mirrored the street 911 to some extent, and they were a massive success in racing, adapting and evolving as time went on, pushing the …

The Last Turn – E Production

9/21/20159:37 estFiled to: Porsche PhotographyBy: Leonard Turner

The title of this piece probably won’t mean much to most, but some years ago E-Prod was where the old Porsche Speedsters and Roadsters went out to play in SCCA, and they were a mighty force. The Sports Car Club of America used a runoff system for their amateur racers, like the preliminary competition in the Olympics, to sort out the best of the …

The Last Turn – 959 Memories

9/7/201510:46 estFiled to: Porsche PhotographyBy: Leonard Turner

Early in 1986, first drives of the 959 were offered to the worldwide automotive press, and we went to the Nürburgring with a great deal of anticipation. This was dampened a bit when we learned that an earlier press group, rumored to have been the Italians, had damaged one of the cars to the extent that it had been temporarily withdrawn from …

The Last Turn: Cutaways

8/24/20159:20 estFiled to: Porsche PhotographyBy: Leonard Turner

There’s really no substitute for seeing what is going on inside, as any radiologist will tell you. The guy who really gets the best view, though, is the surgeon, looking straight into the matter at hand rather than reading shadows, and it is this view that is favored by Porsche when demonstrating the workings of their products. Which is how there …

The Last Turn: A Wolf in Wolf’s Clothing

8/9/20158:40 estFiled to: Porsche PhotographyBy: Leonard Turner

There are several good reasons you may have never laid eyes on a 936 before; there were never but four of them, the last was made some 35 years ago, and they were never raced in the US. A landmark car for Porsche, the 936 brought Zuffenhausen three overall wins and two seconds at Le Mans between 1976 and 1981, won at Kyalami, and then romped to …

The Last Turn – Großmutter: The Grandmother Of Porsche Spyders

7/27/20159:02 estFiled to: Porsche PhotographyBy: Leonard Turner

The last and most famous of the Porsche Spyders, the W-RS eventually became known as Großmutter—Grandmother in English—because of its years of racing history. Shown here at Sebring in 1964, it was near the end of its long career, and was again serving, alongside the brand new 904s, as a long-distance racer. In the days when Porsche had taken on …

The Last Turn: The Last Of The First

7/13/20159:49 estFiled to: Porsche PhotographyBy: Leonard Turner

The Monterey Historics Porsche tribute in August of 1982 provided a notable chance to see many famous Porsches and famous Porsche drivers, but was unique for me in its opportunity to see the only remaining Type 60K10. Porsche had, in the 1930s, already designed and proposed production of the VW based Type 64 sports car, only to be turned down by …

The Last Turn: Sitting In The Rain

6/29/201510:46 estFiled to: Porsche PhotographyBy: Leonard Turner

It’s not very often that you see several million dollars of retired race cars just sitting around in the rain, but here they were, caught out in a shower after being organized, more or less, for a group picture at Daytona in 2007. The event was, of course, Rennsport Reunion, that always grand tribute to all things Porsche with the emphasis on …
