Watch Bruce Canepa take his Porsche 917 for a quick street drive

8/3/20219:02 estFiled to: Porsche 917By: Bradley Brownell

Imagine for a moment, if you will, driving a 52-year-old Le Mans prototype worth several millions of dollars on public streets. You know, public streets, where any dingus in a Hyundai Santa Fe could just run a stop sign and run headlong into, on top of, and vaults over you and your Gulf Oil-liveried wedge on wheels. When you're a certified badass …

No Shoes Allowed: How I Got To Ride Along In A 959 At Sonoma Raceway

4/12/201811:50 estFiled to: Porsche 959By: Bradley Brownell

I had to take my shoes off in order to get inside the 959

This weekend during 'HooptieCon' at Sonoma Raceway, I was given the opportunity to sit in the passenger seat of a gorgeous 4,700 mile Porsche 959 as it circulated a paced parade lap. You wouldn't normally expect to see Porsche's pinnacle of 1980s engineering excellence participate in an event called HooptieCon, but this is a truly special event. …

Bruce Canepa And The Story Of The 959 In America

2/1/201810:03 estFiled to: Porsche 959By: Bradley Brownell

If you're a vintage Porsche enthusiast with more than a passing interest in the incredible 1980's Porsche 959 supercar, you've likely heard the term 'show and display' thrown about. It was a legal recourse for collectors to import a 959 without going through the lengthy, costly, and difficult Federalization process to make the 959 street legal in …

Watch a Porsche 917 Engine Get Restored In Just 3-Minutes

5/29/20173:18 estFiled to: Porsche 917By: Pepper Girl

It's safe to say that no one could tear-down, restore and reassemble a massive Porsche 917 engine in just a little over 3-minutes. However, thanks to a little time-lapse videography and some nifty editing, that's exactly what happens in this mesmerizing video from Canepa. Watch as a few highly skilled and meticulous crew members work their way …

Once In A Lifetime Video: Onboard The Gulf 917K With Bruce Canepa as he Battles Gunnar Jeannette in a 908

8/27/20169:25 estFiled to: Vintage RacingBy: Bradley Brownell

This is an incredible onboard video, possibly one of the best out there. Captured by Racer.com, they fitted a GoPro to Bruce Canepa's head, and allowed us to ride along inside his Flat-12 powered 917. The windshield makes for a dramatic viewpoint, but the inside of the Porsche is almost equally exciting. You can see Bruce slamming the shift lever …

Video: Bruce Canepa Dominates The Field In His Porsche 935

8/25/20158:01 estFiled to: Vintage RacingBy: Bradley Brownell

Bruce Canepa doesn't do things in half measures. If he's going at it, he's going whole hog. That's true in his restoration business, and that's true in his fanatical style of vintage racing. He was on an absolute flyer in this session, and I'm so glad that it was all on video. This is masterfully produced, by the way, as the commentary is even …

Ride Onboard Bruce Canepa’s Porsche 935 At Laguna Seca

9/2/20149:20 estFiled to: Vintage RacingBy: Bradley Brownell

Bruce Canepa's Saturday afternoon drive is a little different from one you or I might take, because his is in a high powered rocket ship, otherwise known as a 1979 Porsche 935. Canepa's vintage racing stable has included this particular 935 for a couple of years, and every year it seems to get just a little faster. Known widely as the last …
