Luftgekühlt Teams with Mobil1 to Protect History

6/8/20184:30 estFiled to: Porsche ContestsBy: Chris Cushing2 Comments

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 …

This Classic Documentary Follows Porsche at Sebring and the Targa Florio 1972

4/19/20189:51 estFiled to: Vintage RacingBy: Tommy ParryComment

The roar of engines set to sub-standard audio and an authentic script has the ability to mesmerize any petrolhead. Add in the familiar punchy twang of Mario Andretti and the soothing tones of Vic Elford, then top it off with an award-winning soundtrack, and you've got a classic racing documentary that will please any watcher with a drop of oil in …

Vic Elford to Speak at the Blackhawk Museum in March

1/22/201812:20 estFiled to: Porsche Car ShowsBy: Tommy ParryComment

UPDATE: We first saw the announcement for this show during the first week in January. Since then, the museum has removed information about the event. We're not quite sure what's going on, but once we get in-touch with someone, we'll update this page. For now, we found the video below. It's a recording of the last time Vic gave this presentation in …

The Last Turn – Vic Elford, 28-Years Later

7/22/20169:53 estFiled to: Porsche PhotographyBy: Leonard Turner1 Comment

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 …

10. Meeting amazing drivers, both current and historically significant From the very first evening of the event, we were treated to lovely meals in the presence of legendary drivers, both of eras gone by and the current one.

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

8/13/20156:53 estFiled to: LifeStyleBy: 993C4S4 Comments

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". Lately, the family behind the Ingram Collection (one of the nicest Porsche collections in private hands that we know of) has been turning that old idea on its head. When I first met the Ingrams …

This Is One Of Our Favorite Vic Elford Stories

6/4/201410:16 estFiled to: Great Drivers SeriesBy: 993C4SComment

Over the years Porsche has invited us to many different events. While we always enjoy getting to drive new Porsches on the road and on the track, our favorite times are those when we get to interact with drivers like Hurley Haywood, Vic Elford, Derek Bell, etc. One thing that makes these times so special is hearing some of the driver's stories …

3/14/20145:19 estFiled to: Great Drivers SeriesBy: Pepper GirlComment

The last time we attended a Sebring Hall of Fame luncheon we watched as Hurley Haywood was inducted. Today, we were fortunate to be present as Vic Elford was added to the short list of luminaries honored since the Hall of Fame was established in 2002. Today's festivities had Derek Bell as Master of Ceremonies and featured Vic Elford, the late …

Breakfast With Vic Elford

3/14/20142:01 estFiled to: Great Drivers SeriesBy: Pepper Girl3 Comments

It's still relatively quiet as we arrive at the far end of the Sebring paddock area for a quick breakfast in the IMSA hospitality tent. We know we'll be seeing some drivers, but we aren't quite sure who. Walking in we immediately notice some familiar faces in the form of Hurley Haywood and Vic Elford sitting at a table, leaning toward each other …
