A couple of weeks ago we got a message from Michelin asking if we'd like to judge on their behalf during the PCA's WERKS Reunion Porsche concours, a pretty big part of Monterey Car Week. Ready for any challenge, of course we said we'd be honored to do so. Michelin Tires is one of the main sponsors of WERKS [and here at FLATSIXES.com], and as such …

Here’s A Great Resource To Find The Porsche Part Number You’re Looking For
It doesn't matter if you're performing your own routine maintenance or working on a full blown restoration, you're going to need parts for your Porsche. How easy or how hard it is to find those parts depends a great deal on your ability to provide your preferred supplier with a part number. The problem lies in the fact that not all parts, on all …

We've seen this 959 before, on eBay of all places. As we noted earlier this month eBay may not have been the best choice for the retro-supercar, and the seller's choice to move to Bring a Trailer says a lot about the site's growth and the market. Up to this point Bring a Trailer's auction record was held by a Lancia Aurelia Cabriolet which sold in …

Last year at Le Mans, Porsche unveiled a sculpture that was half Porsche 911 RSR race car and half LEGO sculpture. It was a really interesting piece, and it made the rounds to a few events, including Rennsport Reunion. This year, a similar sculpture has been crafted, but this time out of a 919 Hybrid LMP1 car. The left half is made of real-deal …

Racing around the Nürburgring is high on my bucket list of must do drives. It's also one of the scariest items on that list. Not because I'm afraid to put my limited driving skills up against the notorious Green Hell (in reality, I am), but more because there is so much that can happen that's outside my control. Take the unfortunate owner of this …

In case you're living under a rock, Doug DeMuro has moved on from Jalopnik and is now writing his column at AutoTrader of all places.

This weekend at COTA was possibly the hottest and muggiest time at the track I've ever experienced. We saw the thermometer rise well above 90 degrees, but the real killer was the 65% humidity. Many drivers, and even spectators, were struggling with the heat, and the mantra of the weekend was "stay hydrated"! The on-track action was just as hot, …

2016 is the 40th Anniversary of both the real 934 and its RC little brother; Tamiya's long lived kit. Back in June of this year, to celebrate the model's anniversary, Tamiya announced a completely up-to-the-minute version of the 934 based on their TA-02SW architecture. Where the original 934 produced 485 horsepower (or more) from its turbocharged …

Intimidation. That’s what this image is about; the monster, black and hulking, looming large over the tiny obstruction blocking its path, a scowl on its chromed face. Carnage, it implies, may ensue.
