Porsche 917 @ Targa 66 with Brian Redman

The Spacecoast PCA hosted a group drive down to the 2015 Targa 66 hosted by Brian Redman.  While at the Palm Beach International Raceway (PBIR) we met a gentleman who owned a 917 trainer car painted in the Martini livery.  When we asked if we could here the 1970 flat 12 cylinder run, he told us that Brian himself would be driving the car in a little while.  So of course we had to camp out in this poor guy's pit area and make sure we had a perfect spot to view the classic race car rolling out of the pits.  Here's a little video showing what we got to see. I can only tell you that the sound, in person, was magnificent!  Hearing all of those straight cut gears whirring around inside that crankcase was an awesome experience one foot away from the car!
