A sneak peek inside our Fall 2026 magazine 👀
Issue 039 welcomes new cars and old friends to 000’s fabled NorCal test loop, a cover story that’s been a dozen years and several iterations of GT3 in the making. Also in the issue is a three-part love letter to the 911 Turbo and a tête-à-tête with Dr. Ulrich Bez, the outspoken architect of the Typ 993 and ill-fated but prophetic Tyo 989 sedan.

Happy 9/14 Day 🎂
Herbert Linge had been keen on motorsport safety since his earliest days as a Porsche factory driver.
For Linge, a rescue car (R-car) was long overdue. In the late 1960s and early 1970s, automotive technology was evolving at a blistering pace. Lap times were falling fast, and 250 miles per hour suddenly seemed attainable. There was a problem, however.
The race tracks couldn’t keep up when it came to safety. Hardly a race passed without a serious accident, and almost every series had to include driver fatalities in its season statistics.
The safety of the vehicles themselves played a role, too. The cars were sometimes referred to as “rolling bombs” because their fuel tanks were simple affairs in lightweight aluminum. The driver’s chance of survival in a burning race car—assuming he or she was still conscious—diminished rapidly after 30 seconds. After one minute, the chances for survival were grim.
Linge discussed his core strategy—the development of a fast emergency vehicle that could combat fire and provide first aid to drivers—with Helmuth Bott, a friend and fellow experimenter at Porsche. All Linge needed now was a car. Bott thought a production car would be best, but which one?
With its racing career finished, 914-57 became a test vehicle that was destined to be scrapped. Piëch thought the 914 would make a good platform for an ONS safety car—a decision that gave Linge an opportunity to present his ideas while giving 914-57 a second life.
An air of skepticism and more than a little snickering met Linge when he presented the 914-6 as his idea for a rapid-response rescue car at the Nürburgring in 1972. Linge remembers his colleagues declared him crazy. Jacky Ickx doubted the plan, too.
In one lap of the Ring, Linge proved that his rapid-response car was rapid.
Looking back now, Linge’s idea for a rapid response vehicle took him very far, very quickly. And a 914-6 that might well have been crushed is not only still with us, it has ensured countless drivers are, too…

Golden hour with an early 1974 #citroen #cx and @moteurflottant

Happy New Year!
2024 will be the year of the CX. You absolutely can’t tell by looking at it, but Robert Opron’s masterpiece is celebrating its 50th anniversary this summer.
The big Citroën of the seventies and eighties is still overshadowed by the DS - time to change that in the coming months.
My father owns one of the oldest known examples, which rolled off the production line in July 1974, a few weeks before the official presentation.
@romanraetzke has captured the minimalist charm of the early CX 2000, which didn’t have the famous DIRAVI steering, perfectly in his photos.
