Street circuits are singularly challenging. Though a spectacle for spectators, racecars framed against an urban environment are exceedingly striking, they can make life difficult for racers. Where recent outings at both Fuji and at Petit Le Mans saw striking successes for the German manufacturer, Macau proved rather more difficult for the drivers …

Return To Rennsport With 9:11 Magazine
It's difficult to tell a compelling story in just a few minutes, but Porsche manages to make that happen with every new issue of the video magazine 9:11. It's always limited to nine minutes and eleven seconds, making the stories hot and fast. This episode focuses in on Rennsport Reunion, and it is an incredibly awesome series of vignettes. If …

While Porsche was busy wrapping up the IMSA season with a victory at Petit Le Mans, halfway across the world the German sports car maker was similarly sucessful with a double-class victory at the FIA WEC 6 Hours of Fuji round in Japan. With factory-prepped racers in the GTE-Pro class coming home first and fifth, while independent teams racing in …

We've had "Project Boxster Clubsport" for quite a while now, but it's been dormant for over a year and it's time to rectify that. We purchased the Porsche for a song, and have been slowly making some moves to drop the car's weight and add a little more fun. It's an excellent Porsche to drive, but it's in a pretty sorry state right now, and we want …

If given the opportunity to test three of the most raw and brutal racing machines of the 1960s, it's likely most of us would jump at the opportunity. This Gulf-Wyer Racing 917 was once muscled around by the likes of Jo Siffert and Derek Bell, and while I think quite highly of my own driving, I have no doubt that I'd be absolutely pants in …

Turbocharged Porsches eschew ultimate sound for an incredible increase in performance, as is the case with the new power-leading 911, the GT2 RS. In comparison to its GT3 RS sibling, the GT2 RS is downright quiet and reserved. That factory exhaust note has more in common with your average performance luxury sedan than it does Porsche's rip-roaring …

The IMSA season is almost over with just one more race to run, the famed Petit Le Mans at Road Atlanta next month.

Porsche as a whole came out of the weekend alright, …

"It's a 962 that you can put a license plate on," says owner Matthew Ivanhoe of his Schuppan, which was ostensibly created as a homologation special for a Le Mans effort that never transpired. We saw this car at Luftgekühlt 5 earlier this year, and the car certainly gathered a crowd. The car, at that time and as I recall it, had an odometer reading …

Porsche attacked Virginia International Raceway with the team's typical verve, but similar to their efforts at Silverstone in the WEC race, the IMSA teams had an up and down weekend with some good results and some quite poor. In the GT Daytona category, the Wright Motorsports team from central Ohio scored a well-deserved podium position. The …

Porsche had an extremely up and down day in England on Sunday during the six hours of Silverstone. This race saw a second win in a row for the GTE-Am category Dempsey Proton Racing squad of Matt Campbell, Christian Ried, and Julien Andlauer, as well as an additional 911 RSR in third place on the podium. In the GTE-Pro category, however, the day …
