FOREWORD by JURGEN BARTH, Porsche driver, winner of the Le Mans 24 Hours in 1977 and organizer of the BPR series AND
BRIAN REDMAN, Porsche driver, twice winner of the Spa 1000 Kilometres, as well as winner of the Targa Florio in 1970 and the Sebring 12 Hours in 1978
Porsche 911: a legendary sports car, judged by many to be the greatest of the twentieth century. From its launch back in 1963, the 911 has been the object of continuous evolution and transformation; a car capable of reinventing itself while maintaining its unmistakeable characteristics of advanced technology, high performance, robustness, elegance and versatility, all qualities typical of Porsche products. In the racing field, there is no other car that has won so much, for so long and in the most diverse categories and disciplines.
With respect to the edition published in 2013, this latest version of the book again covers the air-cooled 911s, through to the 993 from the late Nineties and has been enriched with new contents and previously unseen photographic material. There are several interesting anecdotes recounted in the first person by the author – driver, a historian and a long-term enthusiast of the marque carrying the “Stuttgart Prancing Horse” – who has had the good fortune to drive almost every version of this remarkable car.
