The 918 Spyder is entirely crafted of superlatives. It does things that other cars can only dream about when tucked safely in their garages at night. It is a tech machine on wheels. It is, as Mike Spinelli puts it in the latest TEST/DRIVE video, "science fiction on four massive Michelins". It's a nerdy adrenaline-junkie's dream, to say the …

Video: MOMO’s Perfect Porsche Pit Stop
/Drive and MOMO have teamed yet again to show off a bit of inside knowledge, this time with regard to the various goings on of a Tudor United SportsCar Championship GTD-category Porsche pitstop. A pit crew has to work like a well oiled machine, and each member of the over-the-wall crew has to know exactly where to be and when to be there. In order …

Many consider turn-17 at Sebring to be THE most difficult turn in North American racing. Why, it's the last turn, at the end of the back straight on a notoriously bumpy track. Drivers enter the turn at nearly 165 mph and there's no one perfect line. It's different for each car and each set-up. Sebring is known to be demanding on car and driver. …

As part of the weekend here at Sebring Porsche had the guys from /DRIVE embedded with their factory team.

We last drove the 911 Carrera S in Vermont last winter at an event Porsche held at Sugarbush, Mountain in Vermont. At the time we were comparing the Carrera S to the Carrera 4S and learning just how capable both variants are in the snow. Prior to that it was a 2012 model that we pushed up the Mt.

Last October Porsche invited us out to Oregon to drive the entire 2014 Panamera line-up. From that, amongst others, we gave you our review of the 2014 Panamera GTS. However, it's always nice to see another view and especially one done via video. Our friends over at DRIVE released this TEST/DRIVE production a few days ago and features Mike Musto as …

I don't know if I've ever been more jealous of Chris Harris in my life than I am now. I knew he was in Valencia to drive the 918 Spyder, but his laps around the circuit just blow my mind. Not only can he drive, but the ability to explain what he's experiencing at speed it mind blowing. This is a full on production version of the 887 horsepower …

The back of his racecar says 'Caution Snow Ahead' and 17yr old Madison Snow often shows his competition just that decal. Racing in the Porsche IMSA GT3 Cup Challenge by Yokohama, Madison has always been fast and a winner. In 2013, he finds himself in at the front of the Championship battle. Leo Parente and /ShakeDown take a ride with Madison to …
