VIDEO: Porsche 917K Action on Track

Porsche 917K Track Video

This is a video of a 1969 Porsche 917 (chassis 025) racing at Monza Circuit during the “1000 km Challenge” race revival, a 3 hours race in which race cars from 1960 to 1970 compete for the victory. This Porsche 917-025 was built for Porsche AG as a long-tail version. In 1970 was converted into a 917 “K” (K stay for Kurzheck, “short” in german), painted in white with blue stripes and sold to Team Zitro, from Switzerland. The car is moved by a 4.5 liter Flat-12 engine which can produce 580hp at 8300 rpm and it’s able to reach a top speed over 350 km/h (220 mph).
