Going To Le Mans – A Trip Across The Pond
Going To Le Mans – A Trip Across The Pond
By Chris Hoyt
Attending the 24 Hours of Le Mans is a bucket list item for any endurance/road racing fan, and that’s especially true for many PORSCHE owners. Afterall, for several decades, winning it was the personal property of the PORSCHE factory or a factory-supported team with the marque scoring 19 overall victories in the venerable 917, 935, 956/962 models and more recently the 919.
After hearing the many tales of FCR member and Le Mans guru Jack Williams, the itch just got too much, and Ed Lustgarten and I tossed our hats in the ring and went to the 2023 edition for the first time. It was also the 100th anniversary. We had a blast with Jack as our guide, which I believe was his 21st time attending the world’s greatest race (in my opinion…). So, of course, we had to return for the 2024 race held June 15-16!

Why do you love your Porsche and why did you pick Porsche over other brands?
I’ve wanted a Porsche since I was a teenager! It only took 50 years to get it, but worth the wait.
