Steve McQueen intended to race a Porsche 917 himself with the legendary Jackie Stewart, but instead is depicted starting the race in the blue #20 Gulf-Porsche 917K driven by Jo Siffert and Brian Redman. The race-leading white #25 Porsche 917 “Long tail” was piloted by Vic Elford and Kurt Ahrens, Jr. https://automedia.revsinstitute.org/movie-cars-five-facts-about-steve-mcqueens-classic-film-le-mans
Is it possible to turn off the constant tire whining noise even when driving straight ahead? from the porsche 917
I came to know of Quick Vic via Can-Am. He was truly one of the most versatile drivers. Jim Hall, when Elford took over driving the Chaparral 2J sucker car, was amazed at how often Vic monitored the gauges. After a session, Hall could ask about Oil Pressure at a certain corner and Elford would immediately give an answer. Any car he drove was made better.
Sorry to say, it's a pretty elaborate April Fools article. https://www.reddit.com/r/WeirdWheels/comments/vyh43d/porsche_917_t_car_6_wheeler_an_interesting/ But with this mod being a "fake 917"
Ouch! I'm sorry. The diversity of cultures and not having many knowledge of English ... in Spain the "April fool's day" is December 28 At least the idea did not go unnoticed https://www.carmodel.com/es/remembe...els-test-n-0-24h-daytona-1970-fake-car/134664
