Among hundreds of other wins for the crested German brand of fighting racers, Elford is …

Luftgekühlt Teams with Mobil1 to Protect History

6/8/20184:30 estFiled to: Porsche ContestsBy: Chris Cushing

Protecting history is challenging. There's no need to be ambiguous, virtually every museum, historical society and living history group struggles. I crewed a working museum ship, and though we sailed thousands of miles and hosted thousands of visitors, funding was always a question. Money doesn't necessarily follow people's interests in any …

The Last Turn – Vic Elford, 28-Years Later

7/22/20169:53 estFiled to: Porsche PhotographyBy: Leonard Turner

At the first Rennsport Reunion, I was given the assignment to “judge” the 917 class in the concours alongside Vic Elford. I use the quotes quite intentionally, as my qualifications were pretty thin compared to Vic’s, and we had no specific instructions as to what was expected of us, other than to not take it too seriously. With that in mind, we …

Porsches Are Meant To Be Driven And Shared. The Ingram Family Explains Why.

8/13/20156:53 estFiled to: LifeStyleBy: 993C4S

It used to be a truism that only enthusiasts drove their cars and "collectors" simply collected; collector's cars tend to sit around as "garage queens".
