Porsche 911 Success

Back in the 1960s and continuing through today, one of the most successful Porsche race cars in the history of motorsports is the Porsche 911. When taking a closer look at the Porsche race track, you’ll see a Porsche 911 ruling the road. After all, it’s nearly impossible to talk about the Porsche race track success without bringing up the 911 model.

Though it’s difficult to pinpoint how many wins the Porsche 911 race car has under its belt, the experts at our Pasadena-area Porsche Center estimate that there have been over 30,000 victories over the years and counting.

24 Hours of Le Mans Wins

Within these wins are the 19 overall wins from the 24 Hours of Le Mans. Porsche race cars hold more wins at this legendary annual endurance race than other manufacturer models ever since its first running in 1923. Porsche race car performances have been dominating from the Porsche 919 prototype diesel-hybrid to the turbocharged Porsche 956 monster from the 1980s. Across the years, these models have been improved, all while maintaining their status as the top in Porsche racing.

Race-Derived Porsche Features

So what makes these models so thrilling? Porsche race cars have race-proven engineering features in new and used models, so you can be sure that no matter which model you choose, you can drive off in a high-power Porsche from us at Rusnak Auto Group.

What are some of the important performance advancements that Porsche race track models have? One is the Porsche PDK transmission. This is a dual-clutch transmission that is used throughout the Porsche model lineup, allowing for gear changes so fast that they’re nearly imperceptible. While this transmission was originally designed for Porsche race track models, this technology has been passed down to the other high-end Porsche models in the lineup.

In addition to this, you’ll find new all-wheel drive engineering, turbocharged engine technology, Porsche Active Stability Management systems, and more to ensure your model can bring Porsche race track capabilities home to Thousand Oaks and beyond.
