Until last month, the fastest I have ever been on the track about 150-160 mph, and that never bothered me. However, this past month I got a chance to drive a GT3 on Daytona In- ternational Speedway and exceeded 170 mph almost every lap and it scared me every time.

  • Porsche's 944/951/968
    964 Carrera 4 Cabriolet at the 1989 Motor Show, London 964 History by Ken Chambers, PCGB 964 Registry Secretary and Sideways Sid, PCGB 964 Owner That the Porsche 911 is legendary in the world of performance cars is unquestionable. With its distinctive shape and totally individual character the 911 has appealed to driving enthusiasts since its introduction in 1963. In 1989 the first major update resulted in the 964 model in the four-wheel drive Carrera 4 (Built on the experience of the Porsche 959). A year later followed the two-wheel drive Carrera 2. Production of these cars ran from 1989 up until 1993 and the introduction of the 993. During this period some 3,692 were imported into the United Kingdom. Although over 85% of the components had been redesigned, the body style remain faithful to the classic lines of the 911. Improved aerodynamics using knowledge gained from Le Mans winning 959 and 962, reduced the drag coefficient to 0.32, and with virtually zero lift greatly improved stability and road holding at high speed. A retractable rear spoiler automatically extends at 50mph and whilst increasing the downforce also doubles the volume of air intake for improved engine cooling. The spoiler automatically retracts at below 60 mph. The capacity of the famous flat six engine increased to 3.6 Litres. Gained twin spark ignition and become the most powerful normally aspirated 911 production engine with 250 bhp and 310 Nm of torque at 4,800 rpm, 0-60 coming up in just over 5 seconds and a top speed of 162 mph Tiptronic Electro-hydraulically controlled 4 speed transmission was as an option for the first time, giving the combination of manual and automatic gear selection being supplemented by immediate up or down gear selection by 'tipping' the gear lever forward or backwards.

  • Historic Car Club Sile
    Historic Car Club Sile Porsche 911 La Porsche 911 è un auto nata tra la fine degli anni ’50 e l’inizio degli anni ’60. Nacque dall’esigenza di sostituire l’ormai vetusta 356, direttamente derivata dalla Volkswagen (Auto del popolo) Maggiolino, giunta al limite del suo sviluppo iniziato nel 1948; era quindi il momento di mettere in cantiere una vettura in linea coi tempi. La progettazione fu quasi interamente familiare dato che la meccanica fu sviluppata da Ferdinand “Ferry” Porsche e il design da Ferdinand “Butzi” Porsche, rispettivamente padre e figlio; “Ferry” e “Butzi” erano figlio e nipote del capostipite Ferdinand (il quale in patria e non solo era considerato un vero e proprio genio, difatti nel corso della sua vita progettò e aiutò a progettare di tutto e di più, come ad esempio la “Semper Vivus Lohner-Porsche” del 1900, prima autovettura ibrida della storia nonché prima trazione integrale, oppure durante la Seconda Guerra Mondiale sotto gli ordini di Hitler, sviluppò i carro armati Panzer Tiger ed Elefant, nonché la mamma della futura 356, il Maggiolino per l’appunto e i suoi derivati militari Kubelwagen e Schwimmwagen. Dopo essere scappato in Austria a Gmund per evitare i bombardamenti, venne arrestato dai francesi con l’accusa di collaborazionismo. Durante la prigionia durata quasi due anni sembra abbia collaborato allo sviluppo della Renault 4cv, fino a che Piero Dusio, fondatore della Cisitalia (Compagnia Industriale Sportiva Italia), con il tramite impersonificato da Karl Abarth allora Direttore Sportivo Cisitalia e conoscente della famiglia Porsche, ne pagò la cauzione in cambio di svariati progetti tra i quali una avveniristica Formula 1, che si sarebbe chiamata Cisitalia 360.
