I find myself growing fonder of the 996 platform with every week, and the discovery of this 996 CSR Retro has convinced me that, despite its age, the 996 has all the performance I could ever want—provided it's freshened up a bit. For a modest price, RPM Technik will put a bit of life in a tired 996 and make it something more akin to a GT3 of the …

3D Mapping a 919 Hybrid on to a Panamera Turbo S E-Hybrid
While Porsches are regularly used as camera cars, this is the first time a car has simultaneously filmed itself and used 3D Mapping to project images on its bodywork. The ad is designed to demonstrate that Porsche's racecar hybrid technology is directly related to the road cars. While showing the connection between the successful 919 Hybrid racecar …

It's hard to fathom that what for a long time was considered the "redheaded stepchild" of the 911 family can casually dice with the latest and greatest thoroughbreds in the Porsche stable. A 991 GT3 ought to easily show an aging, 3.4-liter 996 its heels, but Guillaume Artufel's 996 remains in contention with cars costing ten times as much at the …

After the recent announcement of Dan Gurney's death, we thought it only fitting to remember Dan and the car that took him through 1962. For the 1961 season, Porsche was content with using a modified Fuhrmann four-cam engine for their Grand Prix efforts, never really expecting to win, but knowing that it was important to just be on the …

I feel for right-seaters in rally cars, I really do, especially on gravel. Even while reading the pace notes, they are completely at the mercy of the driver. On this test route, the person in the navigator's position appears to be simply acting as ballast. Based on their clothing, they may well be an unsuspecting member of the team. I'm sure they …

While Porsche has the same pair of factory-entered cars in the GTLM category this year, the story is completely different in the GTD class, where Porsche entries have dropped from five to just three. With last year's Daytona winners, Alegra Motorsports, moving to Pirelli World Challenge, CORE Autosport moving up to the Prototype category, and TRG …

Porsche debuted their new mid-engine 911 RSR at Daytona last year, and suffered a few teething problems amidst a strong showing. They qualified mid-pack, and finished just off the tail of the class-winning Ford GT. With a full year of development under their belt, Porsche has potential to do even better this year. In GTD, Porsche won the class last …

UPDATE: We first saw the announcement for this show during the first week in January. Since then, the museum has removed information about the event. We're not quite sure what's going on, but once we get in-touch with someone, we'll update this page. For now, we found the video below. It's a recording of the last time Vic gave this presentation in …
