This 670-HP Porsche 993 Hillclimb Racer is Too Much To Handle

10/26/20202:48 estFiled to: Porsche TurboBy: Tommy ParryComment

https://youtu.be/cAOacrcR-eY Time hasn't slowed Austrian hillclimbing legend Rupert Schwaiger. After a violent accident which might've given pause to men less aware of their mortality, the seventy-year-old Schwaiger returned to action this year with an even more powerful iteration of his unforgettable Porsche 911. Now producing enough torque to …

Thirteen Entrants Bring Top-Tier Porsches to Pikes Peak

8/27/20208:48 estFiled to: 718, 992, Porsche GT2/GT3, Porsche Motorsports, Porsche Race CarsBy: Tommy ParryComment

2020 brings one of the largest Porsche gatherings in recent years to the Pikes Peak International Hillclimb. Thirteen of the fifty-one entrants are driving vehicles from our favorite marque—most of which are single-purpose motorsports products. Some of those drivers are fairly large names in the racing world; long-time racer David Donohue, as well …

Hillclimb Duel: 997 GT3 Cup Dices With an 800-HP ’88 Carrera

6/22/201912:56 estFiled to: Tuned PorschesBy: Tommy Parry1 Comment

Comparing Rupert Schwaiger's 800-horsepower Carrera to a 997 GT3 Cup is the stuff racing geeks lose sleep over. In the green corner, Schwaiger's machine makes twice the power and weighs less, but it doesn't benefit from the silky smooth power delivery of the Cup Car. As we see here, power and weight are important, but how that power and weight are …

Flirting With the Guardrails in a 991 GT3 Cup Hillclimber

1/22/201911:57 estFiled to: Porsche MotorsportsBy: Tommy Parry1 Comment

In the hands of a talented driver, the 991 GT3 Cup can truly do anything. Though a comparatively large car to exploit on a narrow hillclimb, Belgian ace Humberto Janssens shows us that it's more than capable. With supreme confidence in the Cup car, Janssens places the car accurately and consistently, and never had to wrestle with a recalcitrant …

Nicolas Werver’s Hillclimbing 997 GT2 Rocketship

8/16/201812:15 estFiled to: Porsche GT2/GT3By: Tommy Parry1 Comment

Six-time French hillclimbing champion Nicolas Werver has one of the more impressive pieces of Porsche hardware on the French hillclimb circuit: a 997 GT2 made to go racing. After several successful seasons with a narrow-bodied 997 Cup, Werver felt he needed a faster Porsche to stay competitive. To fulfill this need for speed the Frenchman …

Watch This ’88 Carrera Deploy 650 Horsepower on the Hillclimb

3/16/201811:17 estFiled to: Tuned PorschesBy: Tommy Parry2 Comments

Despite the lighthearted color scheme, there's very little that's friendly this '88 Carrera. Its instantaneous turbo response, frightening thrust, and surprisingly compliant suspension should encourage any hot-blooded enthusiast to start saving their pennies for the day when they can build something equally terrifying—and perhaps something just as …

911 HP GT2 RSR Attacks the Hillclimb

11/7/20179:00 estFiled to: Porsche GT2/GT3By: Tommy ParryComment

For fans of ludicrously-powerful Porsches on the hillclimb, Herbert Pregartner is likely a familiar name. The man has campaigned some of the wildest 911-based monsters on Austrian, German, and Swiss hillclimbs for decades now. With no intention of stopping, a small fortune reserved for racing, and a competitive nature, it seems he's intent on …
