Porsche 917K (917-008) w/ Gulf Livery racing on track!

[@mariapires7170]

The biggest,the most brilliant and the most beautiful racing car ever! Obviously it´s a Porsche! Stay safe!

[@Skydrag.V60]

Definitely not the biggest, it’s pretty small, but Ik what you mean lol

[@rmoncayo6]

Agree

[@mariapires7170]

Biggest in termas of sportivity,design,reliability,we don´t forget that we were in the 70´s last century! Thank you for your coment! Stay safe!

[@svogender]

Yeah .. The greatest and yet so tiny..!! 😍👍

[@oldtimer7635]

"Biggest"? Smallest rather, in size, but huge otherwise.

This has to be one of the most brutal sounding Porsches ever made.

actually very nice to see how they still push these cars really good

That’s what racecars are tuned for, they start doing weird shit if you babysit them

[@after_midnight9592]

917 it's either full throttle or nothing. Not designed to drive slowly.

[@Profabdesigns]

You gotta love those long tail Flat 12’s singing. I never get tired of hearing or watching these legendary beauties. Even the modern Audi’s have to work to keep up.

[@nicolasmahdavian1793]

The most beautiful racing Porsche...and it is amazing how small it really is.

[@19Bozzy92]

Indeed. I'm always amazed when simply comparing it to a 'normal' Carrera RSR, like at 4:22

[@BlueCJ]

@@19Bozzy92 Even that Carrera RSR is small too!

[@mariapires7170]

Small in size, but a great, magniicient and powrerful heart!

Legend.....there's nothing more to say

[@flippertheskipper1840]

absolutely correct my friend!

[@james7095]

Hands down one of the best racing cars ever produced ... What a machine !!!

[@frankwessels4639]

Good to see it's not rotting away in a collection. This old lady can sure rock most cars on track.

[@alshaver3742]

A perfect blend of brutality and elegance! Not just a flat 12, but a boxer 12 which has unsurpassed primary engine balance.

[@williamb4737]

By far the best compilation (same car) of the Porsche 917K ever. Been a huge fan of this icon since my childhood. Rugged, brutal, simple, reliable, and f'n fast! Remember back in 70, sports cars like the 917 were lapping tracks faster than F1 cars. Phenomenal!

[@gafrers]

The Epitome of the word "Racecar". A Legend, a Winning Legend. Bozzy again with the fantastic content.

[@19Bozzy92]

Glad you appreciated it!

[@taquito1561]

9:09 Uuuuffff... that was absolutely perfect!! What I love about Group C race cars and some other classic race cars, is that the sounds are like the rawest, purest, most analog sounds an engine can make.

[@Max-lz5ym]

bozzy, you're THE man! Thx a lot!

[@19Bozzy92]

No problem, as usual ;)

[@misplaced80sguy59]

This is the best camera work I’ve seen in terms of showing how small the 917’s are, and the best I’ve seen on the 917, period.

[@kevinbarrett9615]

Most badass race car ever made ! So dominant in every iteration, from the 600 hp Le Mans version to the almost 1400 h.p. Can Am spider , unreal .

[@arqduffyduck6237]

happy to hear the most beautiful symphony of a Porsche

[@Tom_Hadler]

9:27 just perfect driving by 917 & cobra. Beautiful

[@bumblebeebob]

I've said it before and I'll say it again; I'm rather partial to the Ford GT40 but the Porsche 917 and the Ferraris, and others of this period, are the most beautiful cars to ever grace a track. Never again will cars be this beautiful.

[@Green-Mountainboy]

If you dont love this car you're not a true racing fan!

[@nicolafox5786]

100% agree 👍

[@andrefranca3697]

The best race car of all time, the only one that is almost close to it is the Lotus-Ford 72D.

[@mariapires7170]

No I´m not a true racing fan, I simply follow the Endurance about 50 years ago, but I´m not a true racing fan... Thank you! Stay safe!

[@garydilbeck340]

That car is what can only best be described as a beast. And they’re being nice right now..

I had the pleasure of watching the 917s run at Sebring back in the early 70's factory days. Incredible machine.

[@sidefx996]

I was going to say imagine being lucky enough to see and hear it in person!

[@kurtwomack6473]

What an awesome sounding exhaust note when blasting by at high speed. Kudos to the owner for driving it.

[@plazasta]

9:09 made me make a double-take the first time I heard it, that shift sounded so phenomenal! Definitely one of my favourite car clips of all time

[@bolkoschuseil7484]

Developed from scratch in just one year, undriveable at the beginning and THE race car eventually! What a masterpiece of engineering! Thanks for this footage!

[@darrylcavanaugh9465]

I know the 917/30 that destroyed Can Am was a ridiculous machine, which I have the highest respect for, but this is literally in my top 3 (race) cars ever created….. Such a legend.

[@bmepdoc]

The cleanest 917K hi res footage I've seen to date. Simply superb. Full stop.

[@markholroyde9412]

Dont think so, that would be the Simca Matra V12, this sounds like an old clattering air cooled beetle compared to the Matra....but I love it anyway LOL.

[@thehandleiwantedwasntavailable]

Huge respect to the owners of such vehicles for taking them out and allowing them to breathe fire once more.

[@trulyinfamous]

One of my favorite race cars with one of favorite color schemes. Orange and blue is my favorite color combo, though I prefer orange and navy blue a little bit more. I love the big fat tires you can easily see in the open rear end of the car. It sounds lovely as well. Awesome car.

[@ryanb7868]

This dude drives the shit out of this car, love to see it

[@jordanstatler4661]

Best looking race car of all time to me! So low and wide and aggressive and that wonderful engine. I'm a big Porsche guy but regardless I still think this is one of the greatest ever. Thanks Bozzy!

[@19Bozzy92]

Totally agree with you, Jordan. Such a wonderful machine. Thanks for watching!

[@billknox4121]

Nothing looks or sounds like a 917 - the flat 12 down and up shifts are Beastly

One of the most evocative racecars with the most unique exhaust notes in racing history. 1m36sec. That Bosch mechanical fuel injection pump looks like a Cummins P-Pump! Massive!

Just imagine, for a few seconds, being told to unleash this animal by your boss/team manager, because he knows you can manage it……As a car guy, who loves the period when THIS was what your team dreamt of being able to bring to any track, and then, as a driver, being told to find out what it can do…This is what I consider heaven. Strap me in, for eternity…..

[@MrEnduro61]

The most iconic racing car of all time, I have never been particularly fond of covered wheels, since I was a kid for me racing cars were touring and sports prototypes and the Porsche 917 was my favorite. In September 2020 I was invited to Monza to attend the races of the European historic car trophy and it is there that I was able to see that 917, truly exciting and breathtakingly beautiful. Congratulations for the correct description of the history of the chassis 008, a particularly important example (the nose of the first series were, however, green and not blue). Very beautiful and interesting as always your videos. Thank you

[@davidlloyd-jones9603]

Takes me back to Pedro Rodriguez and Leo Kinnunen winning the BOAC 500 at Brands Hatch in 1970 in atrocious weather. I was nearly run over by a spinning Lola T70 on the pit straight at the end of the first lap. I was there with some journalists in a Honda N600 and we were allowed to stand much too close to the track. The Porsche was the most spectacular but also difficult to drive racing car of its era. The Ferrari 512 were good too but less reliable and the T 70s sound was phenomenal.

[@xmlthegreat]

It still looks gorgeous... How?!

[@idrismokhtar3621]

Both 12 cylinder but s there aren’t really that many other similarities. The Porsche is a flat 12, the GTO is V12. Porsche is air cooled, GTO water cooled. Porsche has fuel injection, GTO is carbureted. And the Porsche is roughly 50% bigger displacement.
