MY KAMM 912C PHOTOS IN EXCELLENCE MAGAZINE
It was a pleasure to complete this assignment on a unique bespoke Porsche built by KAMM Manufaktur with lots of carbon fiber. With feather weight and a trick motor, it’s light, powerful and as cool looking as it is to drive and talk about. Porsche journalist Peter Linskey wrote the story, and I made the images for the current (September) issue of Excellence Magazine. Check it out!
ON THE ROAD AGAIN
This time I’m just headed home from New York where I covered the annual Porsche Club of America Parade. Looking forward to digging into all the images I made there for the October issue of Panorama!
TRANS-ANDES ARTICLE COMING TO PCA PANORAMA MAGAZINE
Porsche Club of America’s national Panorama magazine will be featuring some cool Porsche rally stories soon. One of them I wrote about Cameron Healey and his daughter Siri on their South American expedition along the Andes in their 964 Safari 911 named Desert Flyer. I’ve covered Cameron’s adventure before on two Mexican Baja 1000 rallies. This one is even more exciting. It required their making it down all the way to the tip of the continent. In the process, they covered some extreme terrain as they traveled for six weeks with Kalmar Adventures. Challenges included traversing the world’s largest salt flats and mountain passes over 15,000 ft. Check it out!
JUST BACK FROM TENNESSEE AND THE PLATICA PORSCHE 911R EVENT
In a nod to honoring the past and celebrating the present, the team at Harper Porsche in Knoxville, Tennessee organized a unique Porsche event for the third year in a row. This year the 1967-68 911 and 2016 991 model that were given the badge 911R were featured. Five original 911Rs were there along with thirty 2016 models, fourteen of which were in paint-to-sample colors. The venue was a beautiful pink marble rock quarry in Knoxville. It was one of the best Porsche events I’ve attended. More on my story and photos in the future.
NEW STORIES COMING
I love doing stories that have meaning. A lot of folks like to read about new cars.
For some reason, I like old cars, especially historic Porsches, so that’s what I tend to write about.
Porsche’s iconic 1966 906 and 1967/68 911R race cars are important, at least to me. IMO, the marque’s brand awareness and motorsports heritage would not be what it is without these two cars. Fortunately, these are the cars I’ve come across lately to do features on.
I’ve had fun researching the 906 and 911R over the past couple of months. Look for the results soon. Hope you like these stories!

SOMBODY HAD TO SAY IT
Look to the Porsche 356 Registry magazine for a publication of my commentary on searching for what I believe are the origins of the Outlaw Porsche. Available to club members this month. Don’t forget to use your mirrors correctly!
ROYALTY IS ON THE MENU!
For those who receive the Porsche Club of America’s national magazine, Panorama, a rare treat is coming your way. The November 2025 issue will feature my photos and story of the 1973 12 Hours of Sebring race winning Porsche 911 RSR.
This exclusive feature is one of the highest honors that I have received in my automotive photojournalism career. Hope you like it.
PCA PARADE ISSUE COVER!
My sincere thanks to the team at Porsche Club of America for all I was gifted with this month, including the cover of Panorama Magazine, two features of images, and the majority of the Parade photo coverage. David Mathews was the writer I teamed up with on many of these pieces, and he did a masterful job. Check out the October issue!

GARY EMORY HAS PASSED
It is with a deep sense of loss that I report Gary Emory of Emory Motorsports, “The Original Porsche Outlaw”, has passed. No one came close to his influence on the hobby of hot rodding 356s and early 911s.
THANK YOU PORSCHE 356 REGISTRY FOR THE COVER!
It feels very rewarding to have another cover this summer.
Thanks, Kim, Rachel and Peter!
THE WORLDS MOST ORIGINAL ROTHMANS 911 SC/RS
It was my privilege to photograph and write about this remarkable 1984 Porsche rally car. Being used mostly for tarmac vs. off road rallying in period, it has survived with all panels intact. The underside looks like it has been through a war, but the rest of it has a well-lived in race car appearnce.

CHUCK MILLER R.I.P.
By Randy Wells
To my Porsche friends and others who knew Chuck Miller, like you, I am reeling from the shock of the tragic news of yesterday. Chuck was one of my dearest friends, and knowing that he left with his boots on, doing what he most loved, driving his 911, it brings a tiny bit of solace to my heart.
Long a fixture in the early 911 and historic sports car community, Chuck and his metallic blue ’73 S exemplified enthusiastic Porsche ownership for many. To him, it was just as important to become a better driver of your car as it was to learn everything you can about the machine in order to maintain its appearance and functionality.

PORSCHE’S 968 MODEL
The 968 is a rare car today, and the Club Sport edition (CS) is even rarer, especially in the color of Maritime Blue. Only 1,538 of the lightweight CS versions were made in total. Who knows how many were built in this stunning color?
Built for the Rest of the World (ROW) during the 1993 to 1995 model years, the 968 CS was aimed at the track enthusiast who wanted a lighter sports car. Porsche officially only exported the CS to Europe, UK, Japan, and Australia, although it ended up in fourteen ROW markets and is now eligible to be imported into the USA.

BLESSED WITH ANOTHER COVER
Thank you, PCA and Pano, for another cover story! It was a privilege to write about and photograph the most original 1984 Rothmans Porsche 911 SC/RS rally car in the world. Good stuff!
Thanks to Creative Director Richard Baron for his continued collaborative support. I’m also grateful to Prescott Kelly, Johan-Frank Dirickx, and Alan Benjamin for their additional research on this remarkable race car.

THANK YOU PCA, PANORAMA AND ROAD SCHOLARS!
I feel very lucky to have my work featured on the cover and inside two stories for the April issue of Porsche Club of America’s Panorama Magazine. My sincere thanks goes to editor Rob Sass and creative director Richard Baron for making this happen at PCA, as well as Cam Ingram and Rick Mershad for giving me this amazing Road Scholars prepared ex-Jerry Seinfeld 1964 Porsche 904 GTS to photograph and write about. It doesn’t get any better than this!
