A 1986 Porsche You've Probably Never Seen in Action Before

The Goodwood Festival of Speed is a celebration of, well, speed. It's a pretty addictive event, pun intended, with each and every year a lineup of cars you'll probably never see anywhere else again, ever. We've been going there for 3 years now and we must admit that after our first visit, we were kind of overwhelmed and thought events like the Members Meeting where more up our ally. Until the next year came around. We started craving for the Festival, knowing that the cars we'd see there would be from collections that almost never see the light of day. We knew we'd be allowed to witness, film and photograph cars that we had never seen before, ever. Where are we going with this, you might wonder. Well for this video it all comes down to the Porsche 961, a one-off the legendary German car brand built for racing and racing only.

The car is based on the 959 and carries the beautiful Rothmans livery, in which it was painted for the 1987 Le Mans 24 Hours. It raced up the hill at Goodwood quite a few times and we were lucky enough to catch it doing that. Having raced at Le Mans for a total of two times, in 1986 and 1987, it's great to see such a rare and, in every sense of the word, unique car in action.

Enjoy it to the fullest, with no other than Chris Harris behind the wheel. Share it with friends, family, or anyone who might be interested and as usual: See you at the track!
