|
|
|
In what might be Chris Harris' best video yet, he guides us through one of the most incredible road cars ever—one which just beat the Holy Trinity of Hypercars by 2 seconds around one of the world's most picturesque, most challenging racetracks: Portimao. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0WZ-eZZXi-g The Manthey

“SOMEBODY REASONABLE WOULD NOT DRIVE SO FAST IN THE RAIN,” INSIDE THE MIND OF JACKY ICKX
|
|
|
"For those of you hoping to hear stories about racing, you will be disappointed. I am going to talk about gardening," is a rather inauspicious start to three quarters of an hour with one of the top drivers in history. To Ickx, however, it's a logical place to start. When he reached driving age at 16 his goal was
to become a gardener or a …

IS THERE A BETTER CAR FOR WEEKEND DRIVES THAN A PORSCHE 944?
|
|
|
This 1984 Porsche 944 is an incredible tool for certain purposes. For the purposes of driving some of the best roads in coastal Southern California, it may be one of the best tools. This particular example is a European model, originally delivered to a customer in Germany, which means it has a manual steering
rack deemed too raw and unfiltered for …

HOW DOES A GT2 RS COMPARE TO A GT3 CUP CAR?
|
|
|
As impressive as the powerful road-going 911 ever is, few would imagine it stacks up so well against a current Cup car. So much more than a dragster, the 700-horsepower GT2 RS hangs on closely to the tail of the 991 Cup, and in some sections, clearly has the upper hand. The Differences Now, before we assess the
performances of the cars, we …

GETTING UP CLOSE AND PERSONAL WITH THE BISIMOTO-BUILT TWIN TURBO M96-POWERED 1975 PORSCHE 911
|
|
|
We've talked a bit about Bisimoto's wild 911 in the past. The car made its debut when it was featured on Matt Farah's Tuned show back in late 2015, and has been periodically spotted at SEMA and Luftgekuhlt—despite being watercooled—events since. Bisi actually tried to sell the car at a Mecum auction in 2016, but
it didn't meet reserve. This car has …

HUNTING DATSUNS IN A 1973 PORSCHE 911 RSR
|
|
|
In the words of driver Jim Bouzaglou, "It doesn't matter what kind of car it is, we all get the red mist." At VARA's 50 Years of 240Z event, Jim has a surprisingly wide variety of cars to run down. The pits are positively laden with Datsuns, from BRE cars to brightly-liveried privateers of all sorts. Despite the
focus on Datsuns, the grid in Jim's …

TOURING CAR ACE THRASHES A GT2 RS AROUND THE HIGH-SPEED MAGNY-COURS
|
|
|
With a lengthy career in touring and GT3 cars, Theirry Blaise has that sort of confidence and composure that allows him to thread the needle at high speeds. Combine one of France's fastest tracks and the fastest road-going car produced by Porsche, and that calm at triple-digit speeds becomes quite useful. We've
seen how the car behaves in a pro's …

PORSCHE GT2 RS CLAIMS ROAD ATLANTA PRODUCTION CAR LAP RECORD
|
|
|
Porsche is flat out obsessed with lap records lately. The company owns the outright record at the Nurburgring Nordschleife, as well as the production car record (Technically Manthey Racing, but it's a Porsche), and has nabbed production car records with the GT2 RS at Laguna Seca and Willow Springs as well. The
German sports car maker tapped driving …
