Finally, after a long hiatus Classic LeMans was back, and with a bang! There were huge crowds of 200,000 people descending on the world-famous track for this years event, and everyone who attended has given it nothing but glowing reviews after having an incredible weekend.
As a team we had great results too, so congratulations to all of our drivers, and our entire crew for putting on a fantastic weekend for everyone involved.

Guy Ziser/Oli Webb and David Danglard put in the best results a 2L 911 has ever had in the Grid 4 race! Superb effort from those three drivers.
David Clark also made waves at the event as he raced two cars using ARAMCO synthetic fuel. This was the first time in Classic LeMans history that a classic car has been run on this type of fuel. He has reported back that both cars ran “faultlessly” on the fuel being used.
This is a great step for classic motorsport, and for Tuthill Porsche in preserving the use of these vehicles in the ever-changing automotive climate.
