Driving the Last Porsche 917 to Race at Le Mans

When the Porsche 917 bowed out of international competition in the mid-1970s, few people ever thought they would see the model race in anger again.

What followed was one of the great underdog stories from the world of motorsport.  Join us as we fire up the legendary 5-litre flat-12 and take it back where it belongs: the track.
