What’s Your Favorite Porsche Car Chase Scene?
A long time ago we took a poll asking what was the best car movie ever made that involved a Porsche? That got me to thinking about car chases involving Porsches so I started surfing around on YouTube this weekend and found the video you see below. It's a clip from Against All Odds featuring Jeff Bridges (in the 911) and James Wood (in the 308) as …

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 …

... 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 …

Earlier this year I met up with a few members of the R Gruppe, and the conversation turned to their annual gathering, known as "Treffen".

When GRAND-AM and the American Le Mans Series merged ahead of the 2014 season, the new rules structure meant that it was time for a brand new Porsche 911 for the GT racing scene. Based on the Porsche 911 GT3 Cup, Porsche Motorsport introduced the 470 hp -"GT America" in August of 2013, well before the IMSA GTD Class ("GT Daytona") rules were …

I have been wrenching on my own cars since I got a drivers license. At first it was because I couldn't afford to have my cars cared for by professionals, but these days its because I find enjoyment in time spent in the garage. Taking my Porsche to a shop would likely get the job done more quickly and efficiently, but I wouldn't enjoy it, and I …

You may remember that a Porsche 911 GT1 Evolution just sold for $3.1 Million at RM Sotheby's Monaco auction. Well, perhaps in honor of that sake (perhaps it's just a coincidence, too) British Touring Car Champion Andrew Jordan shows us the way around Silverstone in a very similar version; the 1997 'Playstation' 911 GT1 Evo.
