BOOK: 60 YEARS OF PORSCHE RACING AT KYALAMI

The 378-page high-quality large-format book (280mm x 240mm) by SA Motorsport Memories covers the vast and impressive competition history of Porsche at the Kyalami Grand Prix Circuit with forewords by Toby Venter, Derek Bell, David Piper and Sarel van der Merwe.

Spanning over six decades, the publication highlights the Porsche cars, engines, and drivers who raced at Kyalami in the international endurance races, including the Porsche 944 Turbo Cup Series which ran from late 1987 until the end of the 1989 season. Also featured is the brand’s brief, but successful return as an engine supplier to McLaren in Grand Prix racing. The book contains over 550 images covering the 6 decades, most of which have never been published before, each accompanied by a detailed caption in both English and German.

Legendary motoring scribes, Roger McCleery, Stuart Johnston, André de Kock, Hendrik Verwoerd and Roger Houghton each pen a story of their unique Porsche Kyalami memories. Renowned Porsche historian Wernher Hartzenberg makes a fascinating contribution covering the early racing years. A section detailing all the race results and other statistics adds to the vast content of the publication.
