It takes a whole lot of people and precision robots to make a Porsche 911 GT3 come to life. At some point last year, championship-winning racing driver and all-around Porsche fanatic Lehman Keen placed an order for a special Paint To Sample 911 GT3 in Gold Bronze Metallic. There is just something so special about a rare and exciting car like the …

Taycan Turbo S Sets EV Record Around Road Atlanta
In the talented hands of Grand-Am and IMSA ace Leh Keen, the Taycan Turbo S is a bonafide weapon. Despite weighing 2.5 tons, it changes direction faster than its size might have some believe. This is due to sophisticated chassis which utilizes rear-axle steering, Porsche Dynamic Chassis Control Sport, and Sport Plus Stability Control. With these …

When Matt Farah left the potholed streets of New York for sunny Los Angeles, he didn't anticipate the roads to be so lousy. The pockmarked streets of the sprawling city required something with suspension travel—something which could absorb undulations. Though his large-but-comforting Ford Raptor was supple enough, he still wanted something small …

Separated by 400 pounds and 235 horsepower, the comparison of these two is quite intriguing. When the chassis are fundamentally so similar, how does a little extra girth and a different power delivery alter the performances of two racing 911s? The environment plays a major role here. For one, the long straights of Road America obviously favor …

Earlier this year, we saw David Donohue send the latest GT2 RS around Road America in a staggering time of 2:15.17. Last week, IMSA ace and all-around hooligan Leh Keen took another GT2 RS around the four-mile circuit in Elkhart Lake, Wisconsin and slashed the previous record by a considerable margin. Like Donohue's car, Keen's machine wore the …

We love Leh Keen's Safari 911s. In keeping with our belief that the 911 is a perfect all-rounder, lifting one and fitting knobby tires seems to take nothing from the experience. Mr. Keen's cars are brilliant, and Matt Farah's personal car is one of the most interesting of the lot. Farah's Safari is finished in Cassis Red, a rather polarizing and …

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 …

When you think about the perfect Los Angeles city car, you don't necessarily jump to a 1980s Porsche 911 Carrera 3.2, but once Leh Keen has fiddled with the suspension and interior, it just might be. With a softer suspension, more tire sidewall, and taller ride height, a Safari 911 is an excellent machine for running around in the mean streets of …

We all remember the season when Brumos left the racing world, but did you know that a little bit of good came out of that? That's right, Leh Keen's "The Keen Project" first kicked-off during his hiatus from motorsport when he was between teams. When the legendary Florida team discontinued their Grand Am GT program, Leh started building a backdated …

On The Smoking Tire podcast, Matt Farah has repeatedly referred to his new 911 as "Grape Soda Lip Gloss." That may be a little harsh, as we think his Cassis Red Carrera 3.2 looks pretty stellar, if not a bit purple. If sites like Bring a Trailer are any indication, late production G-series cars are on the rise. It sounds like Mr. Farah got a pretty …
