This Is How You Go Really Fast At Chuckwalla Valley Raceway

11/23/202011:15 estFiled to: Porsche Boxster, SCCABy: Tommy ParryComment

It's an alternative to Spec Miata and Spec E30 which might sway a few more to switch teams after watching this footage. True, the running costs of Spec Boxster are a little more than those of the aforementioned categories, but the added torque and mid-engine balance are worth the extra few thousand more per season. An Appealing Alternative The …

Watch This 991.2 GT3 RS Challenge a McLaren P1’s Laptime Around Laguna Seca

12/18/201910:29 estFiled to: Porsche GT2/GT3By: Tommy ParryComment

Under the guidance of Jeffrey Cook, a talented student can threaten a hypercar's supremacy in a 991.2 GT3 RS. Once a driver is confident in the GT3 RS' swinging pendulum of a rear and the way it likes to rotate at higher speeds, they can lean on that odd weight distribution and exploit the rear-engine traction in a way that fires them out of faster …

Porsche Destroyed Another Production Car Lap Record, This Time At Road America

4/30/20198:14 estFiled to: Porsche GT2/GT3By: Bradley Brownell1 Comment

Back in 2016 Dodge set the Viper ACR loose on tracks all across the country with the intent of setting track lap records. It was fast and successful in this endeavor, which got people talking about how fast the Viper ACR actually was. With 13 track records owned by the Viper at the time, Dodge had a lot to be proud of. Of course, some of those …

Porsche GT2 RS Claims Road Atlanta Production Car Lap Record

3/27/20192:15 estFiled to: Porsche GT2/GT3By: Bradley BrownellComment

Porsche is flat out obsessed with lap records lately. The company owns the outright record at the Nurburgring Nordschleife, as well as the production car record (Technically Manthey Racing, but it's a Porsche), and has nabbed production car records with the GT2 RS at Laguna Seca and Willow Springs as well. The German sports car maker tapped driving …

Everything You Need To Know About Porsche’s 919 Hybrid Evo Record Winner

1/17/20191:05 estFiled to: FIA World Endurance ChampionshipBy: Bradley BrownellComment

Porsche's 919 Hybrid Evo blew the world away this summer with brand new world records at Spa Francorchamps and the Nurburgring Nordschleife. Porsche owns the word fast with this car, as it simply beat up on everyone, setting laps faster than even Formula 1 could produce. While it is an extension of the 919 Hybrid that ran in the WEC across 2017, …

Porsche Has Set A New Outright Lap Record At The Nordschliefe With Its 919 Hybrid Evo

6/29/20182:38 estFiled to: Porsche MotorsportsBy: Bradley Brownell4 Comments

A record that has stood since 1983, when Stefan Bellof set a 6 minutes 11.13 second lap in the fire-breathing Porsche 956, has been absolutely demolished tonight. Porsche's team driver Timo Bernhard was at the wheel of the wild and crazy 919 Hybrid Evo early Friday morning to set an Earth-shattering 5 minutes 19.546 second lap of the track known as …

It’s Happening! Porsche Is Testing The 919 Hybrid Evo At The Nurburgring

6/5/201811:25 estFiled to: FIA World Endurance ChampionshipBy: Bradley Brownell4 Comments

A few weeks ago, after Porsche set the new lap time record at Spa Francorchamps with the new no-holds-barred rule breaking 919 Hybrid Evo, we speculated that Porsche could be bringing that bonkers ludicrous-speed car to the Nordschleife in order to take down that decades old Bellof record. Not only that, but we extrapolated that Porsche could even …

The 5 Major Differences Between the LMP1-spec 919 and the Unrestricted 919 EVO

5/11/20184:08 estFiled to: Porsche MotorsportsBy: Bradley BrownellComment

video explaining the technology of Porsche's 919 Evo

As the 919 Hybrid Evo proved at Spa last month, an unrestricted closed cockpit car with fenders can be significantly faster than a Formula 1 car, even in qualifying trim. When there are no rules to break, or even to think about, Porsche can build an incredibly fast machine. As a driver, Neel Jani, has to completely rethink what is possible behind …

Ride Onboard the GT3 RS That Just Set a Lap Record at the Nürburgring

4/20/20185:24 estFiled to: Porsche GT2/GT3By: Chris Cushing6 Comments

The GT2 RS was the second Porsche road car to crack the 7 minute barrier at the Nordschleife. Lars Kern wrestled the 700 horsepower turbocharged monster around the track, besting Lamborghini's record by five seconds. With 180 fewer horsepower, you'd expect the GT3 RS to be slower. It is truly shocking how little separates the two cars over more …

If Porsche Were Going To Attempt To Break The Nürburgring Lap Record, Just How Fast Would The 919 Evo Be?

4/12/201811:34 estFiled to: FIA World Endurance ChampionshipBy: Bradley Brownell4 Comments

The Record Book Ever since Porsche started hinting at the fact that they'd be aiming for track records in 2018, we've been discussing the possibility of Porsche using the 919 Hybrid LMP1 to tackle the outright Nürburgring lap record that has been unbeaten since 1983, when Stefan Bellof set an incredible pole lap of 6:11.13 in the now-famous …
