Join two Porsche enthusiasts on the road to perfect vehicle control – a driving training with Porsche works driver Patrick Long. Their goal: complete a stage of the Tour de France Automobile of 1969. A homage to the legendary 991 R, which achieved an outstanding triumph in this popular rally event.

In the first lesson, they will start with the basics: you will learn more about the correct seating position as well as proper steering and vision control.

Porsche 991 R Specs:

The outputs of the mighty engine are exactly the same as in the RS, which means 493bhp at 8250rpm and 339lb ft at 6250rpm. However, as the loses through the manual transmission are slightly less than the PDK, the amount of power reaching the rear wheels is slightly greater than in the RS. The 0-62mph time is being quoted as 3.8seconds and with far less drag the top speed is claimed to be a monstrous 201mph although even that is said to be a conservative figure.
