Porsche 911 R at Silverstone: Time for Coffee?
Worried all the 911 Rs were in air-conditioned collections? This PHer proves otherwise!
So look away now if you don't like rear-engined Porsches, and the R in particular. But if you do like them and you want to see one being driven well by an enthusiast, see below. PHer 'footsoldier' got his R on track as soon as possible, enjoying his car on a great circuit as well like to do with a new performance car. The noise is sublime even through a GoPro, it looks really fast and props to this PHer for doing his own heel and toe as well.
With so many apparently being bought as investments, to see a 911 R being thrashed around a circuit is really heartening. That's what they were made for after all! Thanks footsoldier for sending it over, hopefully there's plenty more to come.
Watch the video here.
Another week, another 911.
Good to see Porsche have finally admitted (again) the correct location for the engine is in front of the rear axle.
"By moving the engine forwards Porsche can finally utilise the space to generate more underbody downforce, while also improving the overall balance of the car"
Makes you wonder why they put the rear seats in instead, oh wait......
Decent paint and wheels though.
