Rennsport Collective 2020 – the Best of the Best Porsches www.porscheroadandrace.com Rennsport Collective 2020 – the best of the best Porsches Published: 4th November 2020 By: Glen Smale Online version: https://www.porscheroadandrace.com/rennsport-collective-2020-the-best-of-the-best-porsches/ View from the entrance at Stowe House at Rennsport Collective, Buckinghamshire, UK, on 1 November 2020 Under normal circumstances, this year’s Rennsport Collective would have taken place at the beginning of August, when the weather was a good deal warmer and perhaps slightly more predictable. As it happens, with the onslaught of the Covid-19 pandemic, many smaller and some really big international events have been summarily cancelled, leaving spectators and enthusiasts searching the internet for reruns of older races or car shows. It has been a www.porscheroadandrace.com dismal year, and you would not be blamed for feeling that cabin fever might be setting in. Rennsport Collective at Stowe House, Buckinghamshire, UK, on 1 November 2020 www.porscheroadandrace.com Rennsport Collective, Stowe House, Buckinghamshire, UK, 1 November 2020: This Porsche 993 GT2 (1995) raced in the Le Mans 24 Hours and is still fully road legal But the good folk in the Rennsport Collective office were determined to find an alternative date for their relatively new event. Having held their first Rennsport Collective event last year, the last thing they wanted was to be beaten by a pesky virus, and for enthusiasts to think that the 2019 event was a ‘one-hit wonder.’ Battling a crowded fourth-quarter motorsport calendar and the onset of unpredictable autumn weather, the team fixed the rescheduled date for Sunday 1st November, and the venue, the sprawling lawns of Stowe House in Buckinghamshire. www.porscheroadandrace.com Rennsport Collective, Stowe House, Buckinghamshire, UK, 1 November 2020: This Porsche 911 3.0 RSR was a competitor in the 1975 Tour de France, also competing in the 1976 and 1978 editions of this race www.porscheroadandrace.com Rennsport Collective, Stowe House, Buckinghamshire, UK, 1 November 2020: One of just 100 Porsche 993 Carrera RS Clubsports (1995) finished in fabulous Speed Yellow www.porscheroadandrace.com Rennsport Collective, Stowe House, Buckinghamshire, UK, 1 November 2020: This 1995 Porsche 993 RS is an old friend of PORSCHE ROAD & RACE’S and is finished in rare Riviera Blue The odds were certainly stacked against the team and their proposed new date, as the weather lashed the UK with heavy rain the night before, and the forecast was for even heavier rain the afternoon of the event. So there was just a window of some hours, in which the well-behaved and brave assemblage of enthusiasts could enjoy the feast of Porsches that was set before us. www.porscheroadandrace.com Rennsport Collective, Stowe House, Buckinghamshire, UK, 1 November 2020: A very special Porsche 911 Carrera RS 3.0 that competed in the Tour de France three times, twice in the Le Mans 24 Hours and once in the Monte Carlo Rally www.porscheroadandrace.com Rennsport Collective, Stowe House, Buckinghamshire, UK, 1 November 2020: This 1973 Porsche 911 Carrera RS features the M472 Touring package with LSD www.porscheroadandrace.com Rennsport Collective, Stowe House, Buckinghamshire, UK, 1 November 2020: Porsche 996 GT3 Cup Although it was a smaller group of cars that greeted us, in the opinion of this writer, the team at Rennsport Collective deserve full marks for their preparedness in going ahead with the event. Congratulations are in order too, for the high quality of the cars assembled and for the superb location. The front lawns of Stowe House made for a magical spectacle and were it not for all the hurdles above that the team had to jump over, there would have been more cars and more spectators. But let us be grateful for what we have, as this last weekend certainly delivered the goods under trying circumstances. www.porscheroadandrace.com Rennsport Collective, Stowe House, Buckinghamshire, UK, 1 November 2020: This #88 Porsche 997 GT3 RSR (2009) was raced consistently in the ELMS and WEC, including five times in the Le Mans 24 Hours www.porscheroadandrace.com Rennsport Collective, Stowe House, Buckinghamshire, UK, 1 November 2020: Porsche 911 T/R (just 4 RHDs were built) – this car has competition history from 1968, competing in the Monza 1000 KM, Targa Florio and the Le Mans 24 Hours www.porscheroadandrace.com Rennsport Collective, Stowe House, Buckinghamshire, UK, 1 November 2020: VW Transporter with Porsche 550 Spyder And so, onto the display cars. With the present restrictions on travel from certain countries in Europe, it goes without saying that some prized vehicles were not able to make the journey. With this in mind, there was nevertheless a healthy mix of both current and some yesteryear models, including both road and race cars. www.porscheroadandrace.com Rennsport Collective, Stowe House, Buckinghamshire, UK, 1 November 2020: This Porsche 911 Safari 3.0 SC Tribute is currently being developed for a Trans–Siberian Grand Tour by the owner www.porscheroadandrace.com Rennsport Collective, Stowe House, Buckinghamshire, UK, 1 November 2020: Porsche Carrera GT – fewer than 100 of the 1270 production run were finished in Fayence Yellow. With a motorsport derived engine and gearbox, this is the ideal supercar www.porscheroadandrace.com Rennsport Collective, Stowe House, Buckinghamshire, UK, 1 November 2020: 1993 Porsche 959 – one of just eight cars produced in the 1992/93 production year making this one of the last to leave the assembly line. It is well used on European tours Making your way through the building from front to back, you are confronted with a view that seems to go on forever, but as you approach the steps that lead onto the extensive lawns, you were greeted with a spectacle that would warm the heart of any Porschephile. To the left was a selection of 911 RS and RSR road and race cars, a 911 Safari Rothmans rally car, GT3 Cup, 911 T/R, RS 3.0 and more. To the right were more 911 RSRs, 993 GT2, 996 Cup, Carrera GT supercar, 959, 991 GT3 Clubsport (which starred in a film by Porsche), 911 S/T (the lightest 911 ever, and finished 3rd in the 1970 Tour de France), 964 RS, 911 Safari RS Tribute and much more. www.porscheroadandrace.com Rennsport Collective, Stowe House, Buckinghamshire, UK, 1 November 2020: This #139 Porsche 911 S/T is the lightest 911 ever made, and was made specifically for the 1970 Tour de France where it finished third overall in the hands of Gérard Larrousse www.porscheroadandrace.com Rennsport Collective, Stowe House, Buckinghamshire, UK, 1 November 2020: This Porsche 991.2 GT3 Clubsport featured in the launch film of the 992 series www.porscheroadandrace.com Rennsport Collective, Stowe House, Buckinghamshire, UK, 1 November 2020: This 1973 Porsche 911 Safari RS is one of the three cars built to compete in the Safari Rally in Kenya which they did in ’73, ’74 and ’75 If your budget doesn’t stretch to the real thing, for the very young, there was even a half- scale 917K Junior model on display which would make one kid very happy this Christmas. Powered by a 9 hp 230 cc engine, this half-scale replica is capable of speeds of up to 28 mph, and it boasts rack-and-pinion steering and a hydraulic brake. They are available in Gulf Blue and Orange, Salzburg Red and White or Martini White and Blue, and only a few will be built each year making them very collectible. www.porscheroadandrace.com Rennsport Collective, Stowe House, Buckinghamshire, UK, 1 November 2020: This #77 Porsche 997 GT3 RSR finished fourth in class at Le Mans twice, and also won its class in the Sebring 12 Hours in 2012 www.porscheroadandrace.com Rennsport Collective, Stowe House, Buckinghamshire, UK, 1 November 2020: This Porsche 996 Cup (2002) was raced in the SCCA Speed World Challenge by Randy Pobst, taking four victories in the 2002 season www.porscheroadandrace.com Rennsport Collective, Stowe House, Buckinghamshire, UK, 1 November 2020: Porsche 917K half-scale model Moving through to another display area, the visitor was confronted by a 991 GT3 Cup allegedly owned by a local Stowe matron, but we weren’t buying that story! Here you could also view a wide range of Porsches from a 356 to a 991 GT3 RS boasting the spec as chosen by Mark Webber after he won the 2015 World Endurance Championship. A very special 911 S/T upgraded by none other than Jo Siffert in 1970, from Group 4 to S/T and then raced by Andre Wicky. A really delicious red 993 GT2 Clubsport sat alone, no doubt highlighting the rarity of this model, as just 21 units were made. www.porscheroadandrace.com Rennsport Collective, Stowe House, Buckinghamshire, UK, 1 November 2020: 2017 Porsche 991.1 GT3 Cup – this car was driven by Dan Cammish to 8 wins and 2 second places in the Carrera Cup GB, also winning the support race at Le Mans in 2017 www.porscheroadandrace.com Rennsport Collective, Stowe House, Buckinghamshire, UK, 1 November 2020: Porsche 993 GT2 Clubsport, one of just 21 of this model were built www.porscheroadandrace.com Rennsport Collective, Stowe House, Buckinghamshire, UK, 1 November 2020: 1970 Porsche 911 S/T – a very special car owned and upgraded by Porsche works driver Jo Siffert A short walk through an adjacent gate took viewers to a small enclosure where a 904 stood, this car raced only two weeks earlier at the Goodwood SpeedWeek. A 996 RS/R adorned in the Stars and Stripes livery and raced by Kelly-Moss Motorsports shared this space, along with a roadgoing 911 Carrera RS 2.7, making this a special and unique enclosure.

  • Men at Play: Remote Control the Head of the Carrera Slot-Car Racing Brand Regularly Invites Friends for a Men’S Day
    newsroom Scene and Passion Aug 3, 2017 Men at play: Remote control The head of the Carrera slot-car racing brand regularly invites friends for a men’s day. Gentle waves crinkle the surface of Lake Attersee. Dark clouds frame the panorama of the nearby Höllengebirge mountain range. A few minutes later, a rainbow spans the lake. It’s as pretty as a postcard. Andreas Stadlbauer strips off the protective film on the Carrera Control Unit, the heart of the slot-car track, for use. The rest can get wet. Stadlbauer has invited friends for a men’s day in the yard of his vacation home in Upper Austria. The only item on the day’s agenda: playing. It’s no easy task to outgun the host when he has the controller in his hand, but that doesn’t stop four friends from trying again every summer. Stadlbauer’s friendly rivals are Helmut Eggert, member of the executive board of Porsche Import (Porsche Austria), insurance broker Thomas Matzelberger, and Robert and Walter Lechner, owners of the Lechner Racing School, one of the most successful racing talent incubators in Europe. The men are united in part by friendships stretching back to the days of their youth and by a passion for motorsports on every scale, both privately and professionally.

  • These Porsche Cars Saw the Light of Day in Geneva Geneva Is the Major Stage for Spectacular Porsche Innovations Since 1949: from 356 to Mission E Cross Turismo
    newsroom History Mar 4, 2019 These Porsche cars saw the light of day in Geneva Geneva is the major stage for spectacular Porsche innovations since 1949: from 356 to Mission E Cross Turismo. A journey into the past. Porsche celebrates a historic moment at the Geneva Motor Show, which takes place from 7 to 17 March 2019: precisely 70 years ago, the young brand introduced itself to an international public audience for the first time. That spectacular première would be followed by many more over the decades – in each case with the sportiest models of the era, in a Porsche tradition that has been upheld right up to today. To celebrate the 70th anniversary of its debut in Geneva, the sports car manufacturer will present the eighth generation of the iconic 911, in Cabriolet form; at the same time, the 718 Cayman T and 718 Boxster T will also celebrate their world première. 70 years ago, on 17 March 1949, it was the 356 Coupé and the 356 Cabriolet from the series production of Gmünd (Austria) that Porsche presented at its small stand in the main hall. The response was fantastic, with both sports cars enthusiastically received. The successful showing in Switzerland is considered to be the foundation for the later breakthrough of the first series products from Zuffenhausen: by 1965, a total of around 78,000 units of the 356 had been built. Page 1 of 4 The 356 made its first international appearance in Geneva in 1949 The Geneva Motor Show has a reputation for being the largest motor show in the world; a claim forged during the 1960s in particular.

Boxer/Flat Hubraum/Displacement 1.086 ccm Leistung/Power 46 PS/hp (34 kW) Gewicht/Weight 640 kg Vmax 160 km/h/kph Right from the outset, motor racing was an important factor in the success of the Porsche marque. Aside from the possibility of testing and subsequently perfecting the technology of the sports cars under tough racing conditions, motor sport proved to be the ideal stage to showcase the sporting qualities of Porsche sports cars in front of insiders and fans. It didn’t take long for enthusiastic press reports to appear and the Porsche 356 became the secret weapon amongst race drivers. The small German sports car manufacturer attracted attention around the world when, in 1951, the French importer Auguste Veuillet and his compatriot Edmond Mouche won the hotly-contested 1.1-litre class at the 24 Hours of Le Mans with a works-entered 356 SL. Porsche was the first automobile manufacturer after the war to compete at Le Mans. The 356 SL lived up to its name: The SL designation means “Super Light” and indicates the aerodynamically-optimised aluminium body with covered wheels.

  • 60 YEARS of PORSCHE CLUBS WORLDWIDE Part 1 ⁄ 5: 1952–1962
    Porsche Club News 1/12 04 Porsche Club Special 60 YEARS OF PORSCHE CLUBS WORLDWIDE Part 1 ⁄ 5: 1952–1962 The community of Porsche enthusiasts is celebrating 60 years of Porsche Clubs. The foundation of the Westfälischer Porsche Club Hohensyburg on 26th of May 1952 was the germ of a unique idea that today is brought to life every day by events held by around 640 Porsche Clubs around the world. Worldwide, 181,000 Club members bear witness to the enthusiasm for Porsche and the close connection they feel with the brand and the Porsche company. Pioneers: Porsche friends from the Württemberg Club hand out Christmas presents to the Stuttgart traffic police in 1955 25 Porsche Club News 1/12 04 Porsche Club Special 60 YEARS OF PORSCHE CLUBS WORLDWIDE Part 1 ⁄ 5: 1952–1962 1952 – 2012 The Porsche Clubs are celebrating their great jubilee. There are many stories to recount and history has been written as well. The development of the Clubs goes hand in hand with the success story of the Porsche brand. One would not be possible without the other. With 60 years of Club history, it is simply impossible to portray all Clubs in a way that does justice to each. Based on the stamp of recognition that was introduced and awarded by Porsche AG in accordance with the foundation date and/or recognition date, we have embarked on a fascinating journey through the annals of Club history and the development of Porsche as a company. The spirit and purpose of the Club – as can be read in the Club’s founding articles – is “...to bring to- gether all Porsche drivers in a spirit of friendship and camaraderie ...” After Hohensyburg, more Porsche Clubs quickly spring up throughout West Germany.
