Friday - is it 904 day?

I think it is...





Note here from above how the roots of the future 917 are already in place. I feel these cars were a true engineering evolution.

#41 from 1965 Spa (I think)..



Bigger flares & fatter wheels, plus a larger side intake...

Our Mr. Beck and his fabulous tribute cars..





A little stiffer, a little stronger, a lot faster.



I really like this guy. And I love how he just jumps in and stomps on it (I assume it was already warmed up..). Great noises.

A 4 cylinder at Nurb doing a nice little tail-out in the rain. Nice noises. Can anyone tell me if the original 4 cyl 904 was the twin-cam Carrera GTS engine with the complicated cam drive system?



Walter R driving a later flat six...




Tune in next week for the 914-6 GT photo essay!

I remeber seeing a 904 GTS at the LA auto show and just drooling...

I rode in a 906 for 2 laps around Summit Point in west virginia when i was a younger man. The rest of that weekend has faded away, but not that ride!

was it an orange one? father/son duo who also ran a white 910?

LeMans 2014

Porsche returns.

The 2014 LMP1



Is that dorsal fin thing required in the rules now? They can't all be using the same aero engineers.
