When Jeff Zwart announced he'd be headed back to Pikes Peak for another run up the mountain in a bone-stock Porsche 935, we got extremely excited. While he hasn't raced on the mountain in a few years, he's still an incredible talent and has won his class numerous times in Porsche vehicles. This year being an extremely weird year, Zwart actually had …

Hop Onboard This Spirited 911 As It’s Flung Around Road Atlanta In The Rain
I've been for a few laps at Road Atlanta when it was absolutely chucking it down with rain. It was during the U.S. market launch of the 991 GT3 RS and 981 GT4, and I was chasing one Hurley Haywood around the lap. Down the back straight, which isn't particularly straight, I lost Hurley in the water spray kicked up by the 991 Turbo he was driving …

We all wonder what it would've been like to drive those frightening, simplistic, unrestrained monsters from the golden era of motorsport, but not often to we get to see rare gems like the March-Porsche 90P driven with a first-person view. Cockpit-mounted cameras were in short supply back then, so when an in-cockpit clip of Patrick Long testing …

It's been said before, but it bears repeating; 2020 is just a horrible year to be a Porsche fan when it comes to racing. Whether it be the balance of performance jerking the team around, or just a long and frustrating series of bad luck and mistakes, the team is having its worst sports car racing year in a long damn time. That unlucky …

After a few seconds spent watching this thrilling footage, you get an idea of how the venerable Porsche 962 was configured to run: to put 650+ horsepower to the ground without fuss, to consistently reach 220+ miles per hour, and to provide that sort of reassurance and predictability that makes a car livable for long stints in the dark. Kiwi ace and …

https://youtu.be/iI-rscHyiKI Norbert Singer once noted how differently the IMSA-spec 962s sounded from their WSC counterparts. The reason why: a different turbocharger and exhaust arrangement made a major impact on sound. In this stimulating footage, we get a glimpse of just why the North American variant was such a capable car on long, …

It's been fifty years since Porsche won its first Le Mans outright, with Richard Attwood and Hans Herrman taking the win in the iconic red and white team Salzburg 917. In the fifty years since, Porsche has risen to become the single manufacturer with more experience and more victories at this legendary race than any other. But experience doesn't …

A few months ago Porsche announced that it would be pulling two of its entries from the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 2020, thanks to budgetary cutbacks in the wake of the global coronavirus pandemic. The two IMSA team entered cars have been pulled, and only the two full-season WEC 911 RSRs will run in the 24 this year. This will be Porsche's smallest …

Of all the support series on a Formula 1 weekend, it's typically the single seaters usually which get the most attention. However, the wheel-to-wheel dicing in the heavier, slower, and less sophisticated Porsche Supercups get the majority of my attention—and not simply because I'm a fan of the brand. Supercup features drivers from their teens to …

After the sixth IMSA WeatherTech Sports Car Championship round Porsche has still not found its way to victory lane. Of the three manufacturers in the class, BMW has two wins, Corvette has four, and Porsche none. The same specification 911 RSR has victories in the FIA WEC, but the IMSA crew's #911 and #912 keep getting the shaft. This weekend the …
