Affable Kiwi and factory Porsche 911 RSR driver Earl Bamber usually shares his driving duties with Laurens Vanthoor as half of the duo colloquially known as #BamThor. The pair can typically be seen racing in IMSA's GTLM class where they dominated the 2019 championship standings. You may also recognize Earl as part of the 919 Hybrid LMP1 team that …

Porsche Grabs Double Podium Finish In Independence Day Sprint At Daytona
The IMSA racing season has been on hiatus since January due to the international pandemic still quietly raging in the background. Because so few states have allowed for large gatherings, the series is limited on where it can go right now, which means another run at Daytona follows the 24 Hours as round two. After a double podium finish behind the …

Racer Cory Friedman has put his hands to the steering wheel of a number of Porsche's greatest race cars over the years, but he may have had the best drive of his life at Daytona during last month's season-ender PCA Club Racing event.

It's a bit strange to think that twenty-five years ago, Porsche planned to take the 959 into international sports car racing. Especially for its time, the tech-heavy 959 was so sophisticated that running one in an endurance race must've made the engineers weep and kiss their family lives goodbye. However, it was indeed built to fit into the Group B …

We are loving these throwback liveries. Porsche's modern liveries are rather understated; the typical black, red, and white schemes used today are far less vivid than schemes of the past. Porsche began using throwback liveries on the 911 RSR last year, with the Truffle Hunter and Rothmans schemes debuting at Le Mans. For Petit Le Mans in October, …

I might be the odd man out here, but until I watched this footage, I always felt the 991 GT3 RS had the most glorious exhaust note in the entire 911 family. I was wrong. This sonorous 993 RSR is piloted by none other than Leh Keen, whose exploits are well known here. The lanky ace dons his red and white helmet before stuffing himself into …

You don't need any words to appreciate the incredible soul and timeless performance icon that is Porsche's 935. In this video Adam Carolla drives his bright red Turbo Terror up the hill during the Goodwood Festival of Speed last weekend. There isn't any voiceover or music or background track, and that's frankly the way we like it. This 935 can …

German racing driver Wolf Henzler is many things. He is a 42-year old father of two, a Daytona 24 winner, a Le Mans winner, a Spa 24 winner, twice Petit Le Mans winner, and owner of multiple championship titles. Until recently, Wolf was one of the longest-standing Porsche factory drivers after ten seasons of racing with the distinction of Porsche's …
