PROJECT GALLERY

As the year comes to a close as well as the decade, we thought we would look at all we accomplished in the past 365 days.   Our first vehicle finished this year was a 1971 914 converted to 914-6 GT spec with a 3.6L DME and 915 transaxle.  It’s hard to choose what is more beautiful, the deep blue exterior or lushes red interior.     Followed shortly after is the black & blue beauty, a 1986 911, backdated and widened.  This RSR Turbo runs a MoTeC driven 3.3L Turbo backed by a short bellhousing G50. A first for Patrick Motorsports,...

  Produced from 1953 to 1964, the Type 547 engine was one of Porsche’s greatest motors.  The motor came out of the desire for more revs and more power, something the Beetle derived pushrod motors could not deliver on.  Going from the agricultural Beetle motor to the four cam seemed about as big as a jump as the Wright Flyer to the Saturn V rocket.   By utilizing overhead camshafts, valvetrain mass is lowered, this allows the engine to rev higher before reaching valve float.  As well, flow through the heads can be better optimized as there is no pushrod impeding...

At Patrick Motorsports we are among the fortunate few who are able to mix our passions and our livelihoods.  While some days we take it for granted and its just work, other days we look around and appreciate being surrounded by the best output of the truly iconic marquee that is Porsche.  The enthusiasm and passion that our team and our clients have for these cars is simply immense.     One such project of 2018 that embodies this passion and utter determination is a 1972 914 restoration belonging to a client of ours based up in Colorado.  The '72 914...

 Two Arctic Silver 1999 Porsche Boxsters being converted to Boxster Spec Racers.          

 Bright orange, stretched fenders, loud exhaust.  Driving down the road, everyone stares.  While on the outside it may look and sound like a racecar, on the inside it feels far from it.  There is still air conditioning and the Recaro seats are both heated and ventilated, a huge luxury in the Arizona heat.      Out on the open road, the steering is darty and eager to turn in.  The vehicle feels taught, with no hesitation on initial turn-in.  Planted through undulations, bump steer is well controlled.  Using the brakes requires a lead foot just like any racecar.  Once proper pressure...

This 1975 911 was backdated to a 1973 RSR style and received our 993 3.6L to 3.8L motor package. The car also had a fully adjustable RSR style suspension installed.  The 915 transmission was also addressed and we installed a lightweight stage 1 flywheel and clutch for improved throttle response and smooth engagement.  A limited slip differential helps keep the power planted on exit.  A 993 turbo brake package was installed to enhance stopping power as well. Enjoy the video!                               

Meet the legend - and take it home.  Up until this point, the only way to drive a 917 required you to be one of the few super elite drivers chosen by Porsche.
