MP 716: Porsche 911 RSR In-Car Audio, Sebring 2019

Say hello to 2020 with the trumpet of the gods.
In the first of a multi-part feature captured in collaboration with Porsche North America, we have in-car audio from the glorious Porsche 911 RSR to offer, taken from the tail of the championship-winning IMSA GT Le Mans machines during practice for the 2019 Mobil 1 Twelve Hours of Sebring.
Anticipating the arrival of the new 911 RSR with its side-mounted exhausts, we wanted to preserve the cry of the original 911 RSR, done by placing our recorder just above the screaming 4.0-liter flat-six engine's rear-facing exhaust fury. For this episode, you're riding with Nick Tandy, Patrick Pilet, and Fred Makowiecki in a race they'd go on to win!
More episodes recorded from Road America, Laguna Seca, and Road Atlanta in 2019 will follow.

MP 713: Inside the Porsche-Coke Throwback Program

One of the most exciting surprises from 2019 was delivered by Porsche North America and Coca-Cola as the two iconic brands reunited for a one-off collaboration at IMSA's season finale at Petit Le Mans as the Nos. 911 and 912 Porsche 911 RSRs wore liveries that paid tribute to the Porsche race cars of the 1980s that carried Coke's branding.
In a special feature on the Marshall Pruett Podcast, the three people from Porsche who were responsible for the concept and creation of the throwback program with Porsche, Dave Engelman, spokesperson for Motorsports and Brand Heritage, Scott DeVault, E-Performance marketing manager, and Scott Bartlett, Motorsports & Driving Events manager, tell the backstory of how an idea turned into a raging success for the 2019 IMSA GT Le Mans champions.

MP 620: The Story Behind Porsche's IndyCar Win

On the 30th anniversary of Porsche's IndyCar win, captured by Teo Fabi at the 1989 Mid-Ohio race, former team manager Derrick Walker and Tino Belli, designer of the March 89P chassis, bring us inside the program, starting with its rough transition coming out of the 1988 season, the improvements to the new model powered by Porsche's stout 2.65-liter turbo V8 engine, the massive mistake that nearly cost Fabi the victory, and how the two men look back on the grand achievement delivered for the German manufacturer.

MP 501: Stefan Johansson's 'Planes, Tranes, and Automobiles' Sebring Adventure

Stefan Johansson is half convinced the crazy adventures and obstacles he faced while trying to reach Sebring in 1984 inspired the popular 1987 movie ‘Planes, Trains, and Automobiles’ starring Steve Martin and John Candy.
Some 35 years ago, Johansson was doing his best to keep a shaky Formula 1 career from flaming out. Invited to race at the famed 12-hour endurance event in Florida in an aged Porsche 935 against cutting-edge IMSA GTP models from March, Lola, and Jaguar, a battle of eras was at play. Taking paying rides when offered, Johansson accepted the challenge in the Joest-built 935 arranged by Colombian gentleman racer Mauricio de Narvaez. Along with German pro Hans Heyer, the trio weren’t expected to do more than pad an obscene entry list loaded with sports cars.
Provided Heyer and Johansson made it to Sebring.

MP 241: Who The Hell Are You, Patrick Long?

Sports car champion and Le Mans winner Patrick Long is 12th in our series of 15 episodes of Who The Hell Are You? on the Marshall Pruett Podcast. Among the things you'll learn from the only American factory Porsche driver, he needs help with music—a lot of help, appearing on Family Feud is an aspiration, and he has a fascination with shipping containers...
Long's episode quote: “At one point I thought to myself: ‘this must be what it’s like to take a polygraph.’  MP was sitting across from me with a stonecold stare as I fumbled on some of my answers. Racing drivers are known to be pretty vanilla, and that’s a damn fair assessment. MP takes a brilliant swing and lets the listener in on a lot more than how the car ran or who the driver would like to thank! I walked out of the interview thinking ‘damn, I need to get out more!’”
