An Interview With David Donohue

The last time we interviewed David he was driving the #58 Brumos Riley Porsche and had just won the 24 Hours of Daytona the year before.  Fast forward 6-years and so many things have changed. Brumos is out of the racing game (in fact the dealership has been sold) and David now works for Porsche as a 918 Client Relationship Manager.  We caught up with David a few months ago when Porsche invited us to the track to test the Cayman GT4 against the 911 GT3 RS.  Inclement weather found FLATSIXES contributor Bradley Brownell and David sharing the cockpit of a 911 Turbo while they waited out some rain and the following interview is the result.
