Porsche 917 LH Speed Record 1971
Porsche 917 LH Speed Record 1971
The Porsche 917 LH, colloquially known as "long tail" or "langheck" in German, holds a unique record at the 24 Hours of Le Mans without clinching a trophy. In 1971, the car shattered speed barriers, achieving a measured top speed of 396.004 km/h, a feat accomplished by driver Jackie Oliver during a nighttime run at Le Mans.
Despite its incredible speed, the Porsche 917 LH faced a less triumphant season in 1971. The laurels for that year were claimed by Helmut Marko and Gijs van Lennep, who secured victory with their short-tailed Porsche 917 featuring a magnesium chassis. While the long-tail version may not have found success in terms of championships, its record-setting speed remains a testament to its exceptional performance on the track.
