Derek Bell and Porsche. It’s an iconic pairing and at Goodwood we’ve been lucky enough to play host to it twice in the past year! A few months back at the 74th Members’ Meeting with Bell taking part in the Group 5 Sportscar demo in a gorgeous 917, and at last years Festival Of Speed as depicted in the video below, in a raucous Porsche Kremer K8.

Video: Derek Bell Roars 530bhp Porsche‑Powered Racer Up Hillclimb
The 530bhp flat-six sings as Bell weaves the K8 up the hillclimb some 22 years after he piloted it at its Le Mans debut in 1994. The K8 was the only open cockpit “Spyder” to compete in the LMP1 class and this car is one of the lesser known racing machines to don the iconic Gulf racing livery. What a stunning and rarified sight to see driven hard up the Goodwood Hillclimb.
