Can Your Porsche 911 Do This?

While they are more well-known for their road racing victories, from Le Mans to Laguna Seca, Porsche 911s have a long and distinguished history as rally cars, too. Vic Elford gave Porsche its first overall World Rally Championship win in 1968 at the Rally Monte Carlo in a Porsche 911T. American John Buffum –- running on a shoestring budget and lots of talent -– powered his own personal 911T to a 12th-place finish in the Rally Monte Carlo while on active duty with the U.S. Army in 1969. A four-wheel-drive 911 won Paris-Dakar in 1984, and the mighty 959 won there in 1986. More recently, everybody's pal, American Jeff Zwart, has taken various 911s to five class wins at the Pikes Peak Hill Climb in Colorado, some taking place before the pavement was there.
