In 1974 - exactly 50 years ago - Porsche presented the first series sports car with an exhaust turbocharger, the Porsche 911 Turbo 3.0 with 260 hp and a top speed of 250 km/h. Just in time for the 50th birthday, GRIP test driver Matthias Malmedie goes back to the beginnings of turbo technology at Porsche and exclusively drives a car that is over 50 years old and which completely pulverizes the speed and performance of the current Porsche 911 Turbo S (2.7 seconds from 0-100 km/h, top speed 330 km/h): the Porsche 917/30 from 1973 with an output of 1,000 hp. He also gets to feel the charger of the oldest and youngest series 911 Turbo - with none other than the master himself: rally legend Walter Röhrl. Nevertheless, the question remains: isn't the thoroughbred 917/30 racing car perhaps the most intense car that Matthias Malmedie has ever driven in 17 years of GRIP? #Grip #GripDasMotormagazin #Porsche #Porsche911 #Porsche911Turbo #911 #Turbo #Racecar #RaceDriver #WalterRöhrl Subscribe to our channel: http://www.youtube.com/subscription_c...
