A Quick Look at Porsche’s Motorsport Accomplishments

When Ferdinand Porsche first said “I couldn’t find the sports car of my dreams so I built it myself, he couldn’t possibly have known how well that statement would stand the test of time. Today, more than 60 years later, I find myself more and more entrenched in the world of Porsche motorsports each and every day. I’m fascinated with the history of a company that has consistently produced some of the most winning race cars in motorsports history.

Here’s a brief look at some of the combined accomplishments of Porsche’s motorsport efforts.

I’ve been fairly vocal about my choice for a favorite Porsche race car: The Porsche 917 and it’s many variants. What about you? What are your favorite Porsche race cars and why?
