Pic of the Week – Porsche 904 Carrera GTS

17th February 2021 by: Glen Smale | 1 Comment

There was talk of snow over the weekend of 15-17 March 2018 in the east of England, but either very few gave the warning much thought, or they didn’t care. After all, it was the 76th Members’ Meeting at Goodwood, and who would want to miss that! Arriving at Goodwood on the Friday afternoon, it seemed inconceivable there would be snow anywhere in the UK over that weekend, as … [Read more...]

The many lives of the 935 K3/80 Red Baron

28th August 2020 by: Glen Smale | 5 Comments

In the mid-70s, Porsche developed the 935 model, a race car homologated on the 930 road car and aimed at the Group 5 ‘silhouette’ series created by the FIA for the 1976 season.

And yet here we are, barely two months into the new year, and it seems that the whole world is in lockdown over the outbreak of a microscopic virus … [Read more...]

Rolf Sprenger was a versatile engineer whose Porsche career was founded almost entirely on customer service. “If I want a trailer (caravan) with a swimming pool, Herr Sprenger will build it for me,” so said Peter Schutz to a potential client, while Sprenger looking on, would groan inwardly: yet another customer whose expectations had been over-excited would have to be brought … [Read more...]

Pic of the week – 1980 Porsche 935 K3

13th May 2019 by: Glen Smale | Leave a Comment

It has been one year short of four decades since this 1980 Porsche 935 K3 was fabricated by Kremer Racing in Germany. Today this race car is every bit the race car it was intended to be back in the day – fearsome, awesome and very capable. It is powered by a 3.2-litre flat-six engine and fitted with twin KKK turbochargers, developing upwards of 700 bhp depending on boost. This … [Read more...]
