I still have the 917 I got 50 years ago. the Tamiya version. 😁
Well, it’s certainly much less drama to house than the full-size one...
Even if you’d give an appendage to own one 😉 🖖😎👍
"Pushed by the hand of god" is how one modern day race car driver expressed the experience of throttling the 917/30. It is the most insane car ever created for racing.
I was lucky enough to sit in the Radillon at the start of the 1970 Spa 1.000 kms with Rodriguez and Siffert side by side (and a bit more) at the start of the race... IN these years, the Proto were indeed quicker around Spa than the F1 !
I want something a bit more emphatic than one single thumbs up.... That's excellent.
The mighty 917............... there is no substitute :-)
I love it how Mark Webber is like half a Meter too tall for the Porsche 917/30
If you want to see these beautiful 917’s really run go to the next Rennsport in California. Very disappointing to see them cruising around so slow.
Do you think they certainly go to the limit there ?
I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought they were hardly doing the pace of a parade lap. My 1/8 on-road RC model cars move faster. Very disappointing.
When i see this i really want to see some F1 classics racing ! The dtm has the Classic race as program for their weekends where they drive Cars from the 80s and 90s ! I wish Formula 1 would do something like this ! Classic cars from the 80s,90s and early 00s
Would be more interesting than the modern F1 race......the FIA would not want that
Google "FIA Masters Historic Championship." They run their own racing schedule but it's the best way to watch older ('66 up to '85) F1 cars race. Unfotunately there is no good option for F1 cars from 90s and 00s, mainly because they are much more difficult to run as a small team. The cars from the masters championship basically all run the easy to maintain Cosworth DFV that was so popular in that time.
@@Hillclimbfan1990 cool.....we are going to the Jim Clark revival races end of April.... Hockenheim
@@Hillclimbfan1990The closest series that I can think of is BOSS GP 'Big Open Single Seater'.
@@willknowler8194 That is also the only option I can think of, unfortunately in a 20 car field only 4 cars are ex-F1. Most of the field of the BOSS GP is made up out of old GP2 material nowadays, which is a bit of a shame. The BOSS GP will be at the Jim Clark revival though.
I've never seen modern footage of a 917K going all out and I didn't see it here either. I hope that one say we'll see it driven in anger at the Festival of Speed.
I know how you feel. Most youtube videos are like this, or some in-car shots. Luckily Spa and Monza hold annual events for classic racing. ua-cam.com/video/FkP5Svl16Qg/v-deo.html
There are a few on YT. ua-cam.com/video/PFUlMUo3h10/v-deo.html
This type of 917K and another 917 were part of one of the most extraordinary things that I ever witnessed at a racetrack. At the 1973 Can-Am opener at Mosport, Donohue was in the new 917 and Scheckter was in an earlier 917. As I recall, they shared the front row. When the flag dropped, these two simply disappeared. Near the end of the fourth lap (on a 2.5 mile circuit), they caught up to some backmarkers and there was a minor collision. No one else was even close to the pace of these two cars and drivers. Incredible.
@@95bochamp Must've been an amazing sight.
webber's helmet matches the 917/30
"Why should I do that I survived it once!" Jackie Oliver
No, the best story is when Willi Khausen drove the 917-10 around de Nürburgring in the sow with a think the Bundeskanzler or a minister on the passenger space (cause there was no seat). As far as I know he had a highspeed 360 spin without crashing…..
I ❤️ porsche 917k gulf
When I think of Le Mans this is the first car I think of, even if I wasn't old enough to see it winning Le Mans.
Beautiful noise… The unmistakable sound of the fuel injected flat-12....howls!!
They're is an ex Atwood 917 racing at Barcelona this weekend along with a 512m.
At Goodwood Revival 2016 I was standing with my back turned to some of these cars. It literally sounded like a handgranade was thrown, when one of them was started up. I flew 5 feet up in the air in that moment.
En drengedrøm for mig, at opleve disse biler.. havde sgu ellers chancen for at være der i 2018. Øv bøv
A lot of great liveries adorned the 917 for me the psychedelic hippie no 3 car was always the best. Shagadelic baby!
the best cars... so nice to see !!!
Nice to see the 917/30 chassis 001 with the Vaillant livery.
You have a keen eye! A lot of people would think it was a 917/10. My favorite was the Jägermeister version. ua-cam.com/video/bBsSs8bPrO8/v-deo.html
I would like to hear the cars!
Pedro Rodríguez ❤ 🇲🇽
Can someone tell Pedro that it's raining? BOAC 1000 April 12 1970
Outfreaking Standing!!!!
This group represents the First to the Last 917's.
Demo? Are they suggesting there will be a race for them one day? Please?
Yes, the 917 really is a tiny car. I was lucky enough to see a couple at the Petersen, and they are really just chairs strapped to an engine!

I have stood right next to these at Elkhart Lakes Road America. You are correct there. It is stunning to be next to one when they start it up.
@@abedanielspictures I wish I could have heard those engines! Lucky
Beautiful cars, but too much talking over the glorious engine sounds.
>1500hp
[citation needed]
The 917/30 did really produce 1580 hp at Taladega in speed record version only. In CanAm race, it produces somewhat the same HP than the previous version (917/10), somewhere between 900 and 1200 hp.
@@greg9985 I have the Archive and Works Catalogue book and have only seen a maximum quoted and verified power figure of 1100ps for the /30.
I understand this was not at maximum boost pressure but I've never seen any sources for 1500ps+ 'qualifying' power from this car. My understanding is it was a myth based on the car's boost control mechanism not being at max during races. People then claimed it could make as much as 1400, which then grew to 1500 and then 1600. If you have a source for the Taledega power figure then I'd love to see it as I've yet to see an officially quoted max power fig. Or we could wait for someone to actually dyno a /30.
@@UbERRetroGamer8432 One thing is sure: the Taladega version had 2 big intercoolers (whereas the "regular" canam version had none). It implies cooler air so more hp. An interesting article about that: www.stavtech.co.uk/home/the-internet-always-talks-about-the-1580bhp-porsche-91730s-but-i-think-only-one-ever-was
But one sure thing: this Taladega configuration has do be dynoed to have a REAL hp figure.
@@greg9985 these numbers are vastly inflated it is more around the 600-700 mark for the NA 917's and then the later can-am cars made more like 1100hp
Would be nice to hear the cars, but I could listen to Doug Nye's tales all day long
Cool
It baffles me how that Sunoco 917/30 continues to run around with the incorrect Sunoco style lettering on it. I managed to rectify the incorrect lettering on one of the other two cars a couple of years ago but it's very annoying every time I see this car. #racecargraphics #utchdesign
You'd be surprised how many things are wrong as these cars have changed so much. Race to race changes were made. The STP car isn't even the car Siffert drove. I think Maybe the engine is the same but everything else has changed. The rear lights are from a coupe. They should be RSR lights. ua-cam.com/video/bBsSs8bPrO8/v-deo.html
I can't stand commentators. Tell us what they are and who the drivers are, if there's anyone notable, before the start, and then SHUT UP AND LET US HEAR THEM.
They are called commentators for something, don't they?
Pouuuuhouuua ❤😱❤
Ibwonder if he learned the axle thing from the grand tour🤔🤔🤔
The commentator was incorrect in saying Mark Donohue met his demise in 1976. It's better when narrative aligns with facts, but that requires preparation and who has time for that anymore?
Mark Webber does look really awkward sitting in that seat..
Why is the 917 (first car) going around with the rear wing flapping up and down?
Would be great to actually hear the cars instead of incessant repetitive waffle from a room full of 'commentators'!
Those tabs were connected to the rear suspension with tubes and levers so they were in the Up position to counter an aerodynamic Lift down the straights.
Boy if I was going to smuggle that many kilos I would want a much less conspicuous car.
Did you see that crap coverage of this event with on ITV 4, appalling. The whole team should not be asked back!
Horrable Helmet... !!!
(y) Yes - áno...,!!! :-) ;)
Could you go slower? ah hahahaha. What's the point?
Utterly pointless, lots of lovely cars being driven very slowly.
You have clearly missed the point!
The point is that they're being driven. The cars in question were built for far bigger tracks, and it would be both unsafe and financially unwise to uncork them fully. I'd love to see them at a more enthusiastic pace, but that's not possible for the Goodwood circuit.
@@StarkRaven59 i know all that, but seeing them all spluttering behind a pace car? No thanks, would rather not see tgem at all and have the memories.
