Nice to see the car being properly exercised. We used to look after it in the UK for P.G the owner. It never really got used as intended and was only out on track a couple of times! This car has some really good late Kremer chassis tweaks with fairly trick springs/dampers & we suspected it would be quick driven properly. Shame the rose joint slipped out of the gear selector. Have you ran the car with a bit more boost yet? It has the better later fuel pump and should be safe to 1.5bar on 104-108 with 4-5% O2. Regards Ian CCR.
@@ACMEpowersports sorry for the delay I've only just revisited this footage for a coffee and nostalgia moment! It was still in its full and menacing Interscope livery. From memory I think the car was mainly raced by Danny Ongais in period. We only had a limited lime with it, around 2 years but I believe it was pretty much the last "non tube frame" car Kremer built. We were also lucky enough to have it at the same time as the Travel cruiser car which was originally a Porsche factory 935 #21 then subsequently converted by Kremer which was an early K3 and there were many differences between the two cars. This car had different and more adjustable suspension pick up points, A kind of Hybrid Bosch/Kuglefischer mechanical injection system that was happy AFR wise running higher boost over longer time periods without leaning off etc. It also had more aggressive aero fences and a slightly higher rear window and wing line, all small changes but really obvious with the 2 car together. It was and hopefully still is a very serious car, especially with a half turn or 2 or 3 on the "gas valve" by the gear lever. I think rightly given that it hadn't had much shake down before this race the boost was set very conservatively looking at the incar footage (maybe the lowest setting 1.1 bar). With most of the pace coming from a very talented driver in the braking/corners, When I originally watched this I was willing Leh to wind the valve clockwise as each half a turn would have added around 45hp (0.1bar) and "shortened" the straights considerably then the gear lever pivot bolt fell out and I felt a bit defective!.. Good times sorely missed ...I hope it's still being properly exercised as these cars perform best when used regularly?
To see that car running toe to toe with modern prepped cars with probabaly way more aero and carbon brakes validates everything I love about the 935. Keep up the amazing driving, I've been hooked on your videos since an old clip of a 996 Gt3R at Sebring many years ago!
@@nightreapers3425 it was only one team that ever cheated with a nitrous bottle. The whittington brothers 935 k3 was the only one that cheated. Not all of them
I had the great pleasure to drive the bright orange Jägermeister-935 K3/80 back in 2013 in an historic event. Great and unforgettable memories of a brutally powerful but yet drivable car compared to the single turbo predecessors.😊
I see the shifter starting to act up at 14:55. It's amazing to see you out brake and carry more speed through the corner than other cars with more hp and probably more downforce. Terrific driving as always! 👍
@@scrabsdead I actually it’s the other way around lol. Compared to the other cars he was passing the Porsche downforce is nothing. But the Porsche has way more HP though.
Top drive. Love your great respect for your car, the way you deal clinically with traffic, and how awesome you are when you are when pressing on. Very cool indeed. :)
Leh: thanks for posting this. We wondered what happened on the last lap (we were running the white Cup car behind you). This also explains how the 0 car suddenly got so fast! Nice work.
We used to watch these beasts race back in the day at Watkins Glen. Great fun! They used to call the boost knob the 'dial a prayer'! Very interesting in the rain. Nice video. Thanks.
Road America..... done hundreds of laps there in Porsches, Fiat-Abarths, Alpine-Renaults, Renault R5 turbos. Due to a registration screw-up (theirs) we started 60th, finished 4th. Very best track in North America, as enjoyable to drive as the Hockenhiemring. This vid took me back 14 years....very nice driving..thanks for posting.
This guy is a freak ! Wow I love the 935 but even I have to admit by 2015 the old girl shouldn’t be that competitive, Leh’s mid corner speed in this car is spectacular!!!
Sir you were a joy to watch, driving that rare interscope worth crazy money, like it should be driven - hard and fast! Super talented sir. Please post more😉

Leh, First of all Thanks for sharing this "Teutonic Treasure" with us. Would the aforementioned Monza be the Dykon Monza. I totally remember those cars!!!!!
Epic drive Leh! I thoroughly enjoy watching you squeeze every ounce of performance out of any 911. Your driving style is always so full on and on and nearly over the limit...truly amazing skills behind the wheel of anything, especially Porsche. I would love to see some spirited ONBOARDS or POV driving from your personal GT3 and your fathers RWB 911 on some challenging backroads. Such a joy to watch drive and thanks for sharing
Great driving ! I like the counter-steering at 1:47 - a "nervous" car. And the " music " of the turbo spooling up and revs climbing while exiting left turn some 10 seconds before...
That car's got some balls! It's looks like when the turbo spools up it's like an afterburner kicks in. A lesser driver would easily be caught out by the closing speed to others into corners. Nice work!
How is this possible to knocking down all these what seem to be very capable race cars basically at will? Your car must be perfectly set up to be pushing so deep with into the corners. I'm amazed at your courage and confidence in your car !
Yes, this is a reminder of "Danny on the Gas" in the Interscope Porsche from back in the day. What a great match-up.....you are certainly outpowered by the Monza but, had him on edge. Great drive Leh just what I have enjoyed about your talent! I'd like to see you in the Ford GT at Daytona 2016 and then LeMans. Surely Ford / Ganassi effort has an eye on you.
Danny hit the bank hard right below my feet at the bridge at Road Atlanta. Flipped and landed passenger side down broadside to the track, dead under the bridge. Demolished the car.
Great drive! I was wondering why that yellow car was snatching you on the straights....Then I realized it was Al Holberts' old monza. That car was a beast too!
fantastic to see how your amazing skills can also beat cars with much more power. super enjoyed that. Bummer for the shifter. Smart to not take more risk. Keep them coming those vids. Regards from Amsterdam
What bar was this ran at?! I know the jagermeister 935 was running at .7 bar at Daytona this year! You are one lucky guy! I'd love to drive something like that!
I didn`t realize the history with this car, what a privilege to race the car and do a stunning job! also what kind of power is the car producing, ive read anything from 630-850 bhp!.looked like 700ish but hard to tell.
Interesting to me that the Dekon Monzas weren't really particularly competitive against the 935 back in the day, but today in historic racing they seem to more than hold their own. Different levels of tune on the historic cars?
As a young boy I watched in awe as Ongais FLEW around Daytona 24 Hrs late 70's in this car, making turbo sounds & angrily spitting fire slowing for infield turns. Great job Leh giving the old girl a hard workout, I'm sure she was grateful! lol Thanks for making my dream come true to ride along! I do have a ? what is current setup - Brumos Historics Daytona 2001 it had twin turbos I always thought it was single back in the day? Thanks again!
I got to time Mr. Onthegas that year! That was the first car I ever timed that was under two minutes! We used to have to do math to record the times on a card. And no there weren't stopwatches that regular people could afford back then.
Saw Ongais and the Interscope car at Mid Ohio. Unfortunately, the car caught fire and was parked on the back side of the course. Have pictures somewhere
So Lee is the first driver I’ve seen that can make a 935 keep its corner speed . The 935 is nuts in a straight line but Lee is able to make it go fast mid corner👏👏👏. Having said this wtf is in that Monza!!! Lee was throwing everything (amazing drive) but that Monza I’m speechless (935 fanboy saying this)
Awsome ride, you sure know your car but this old Porsche just can´t keep up with, what was that Chervolette, a Camaro? But amazing how you made a Ford GT, I think a Saleen and others looks like VW Polo´s 👍 That´s not just the Prosche but pure driver skills as well.
Leh, my Dad used to play poker with Teddy and chassis work for Danny's Indy efforts. He once had a chance to take the 935 out (not sure if it's this chassis or the other one). It's a real treat for me to see and hear the same car over 30 years later. Cheers! Who own's the car now? I know Bruce Canepa recently had it but believe it has moved on.
Looked a little down on boots or power aswell, maybe a running in session almost a Monza or a NASCAR type is quick but seemed even Carrera Cup cars were not being blown away
That driver in front in the end should have been blue flagged in the corner and honestly I would have black flagged his ass in the last corner you were beside him. That was bullshit driving and immature as hell for him to come toward the inside line when you clearly were the faster driver and on line. I noticed the corner workers were don't paying attention to the track. Great driving sir. Would love to do some laps with you in my 911

It's crazy with how advanced technology has become that still the a lot of the most powerful racecars ever made are from 30+ Years ago
Dude and to think he was still getting left of the straights!!!!
@@coliimusic Crazy.....or depressing.
A 1978 car that still today is King Kong. A beast. Maybe the most macho road racing machine ever built. Beautiful driving Leh.
I don't know, which chassis this is, but it is a 1980 or even 1981 car. The K3 as such was introduced in 79.

great stuff. don't remember the last time I watched 20 mins straight of F1, this is far more engaging
All this onboard is a masterpiece. But the moment at 16:14, where both cars slide out of the corner at the same time is the cherry on top of the cake.

More downforce? sure; more hp? i doubt that
@@scrabsdead I doubt many carry more downforce too. Seems silly to even allow this car in here.
@@scrabsdead well why were some cars pulling away if they didnt have more hp ??
@@scrabsdead I actually it’s the other way around lol. Compared to the other cars he was passing the Porsche downforce is nothing. But the Porsche has way more HP though.
I love how an almost 50 year old car is passing a 5 year old FORD GT! LOVE IT
amazing chase with the Monza! The sound of the engine running from low to high RPM on the 4th is awesome too!
Hi Vini thanks mate so the yellow car was a Monza, Jesus Leh can drive but that Monza did not think it could put pull a 935 😳
Top drive. Love your great respect for your car, the way you deal clinically with traffic, and how awesome you are when you are when pressing on. Very cool indeed. :)
I do so love that engine sound. Music, pure music.
Leh: thanks for posting this. We wondered what happened on the last lap (we were running the white Cup car behind you). This also explains how the 0 car suddenly got so fast! Nice work.
+Thomas Martin The over rev at 18:15 messed up Leh's engine?
@@reeceengineering Maybe he don't know if that shift will break the engine so he went slow after that to try to protect it?
We used to watch these beasts race back in the day at Watkins Glen. Great fun! They used to call the boost knob the 'dial a prayer'! Very interesting in the rain. Nice video. Thanks.
If there ever was a car screaming for a sixth gear, it's the 935. What a magnificent beast!
Or even crying out for a 5th gear...Porsche 935 is a four-speed!

are you implying there's an other way besides full volume?

Awesome video Leh!....Looked like the fastest car/driver on the track.
Amazing drive and what a car!!
Leh once again absolutely awesome driving mate but what the hell was in that yellow car you were chasing!!!
good lord that monza has some straight line performance..
That is Al Holberts' old car. Yeah it was a missile!
yes my god
That was intense! Nice work mate
this was fucking awesome, and a little nerve-racking as you were almost past that car towards the end.
Wenn man überlegt, wie schwierig der 935 K3 zu fahren ist... ein wirklicher Könner!
Sucks at the end he started having problems with the shifter. Also what was is that keep pulling away from him? Was it a regular 935?
Awsome ride, you sure know your car but this old Porsche just can´t keep up with, what was that Chervolette, a Camaro? But amazing how you made a Ford GT, I think a Saleen and others looks like VW Polo´s 👍 That´s not just the Prosche but pure driver skills as well.

What on earth was powering the car in front at 5:12? A bloody rocket??
an American V8💪
Amazing driving here Sir!
Beautiful drive ! Well done !
Looked a little down on boots or power aswell, maybe a running in session almost a Monza or a NASCAR type is quick but seemed even Carrera Cup cars were not being blown away
How exactly does that style of shifter work? That and how exactly do you know what gear to shift to?
What is the knob on the dash you are fiddling with? I was guessing brake bias, but maybe turbo boost.
Brake bias! The knob down a bit near the shifter is the boost.
What a car, beautiful sound
Leh, u r fearless!! Great drive. What was the yellow light that came on not long after the start?
Watching this 35 year old car easily dispatching much newer 911s and other cars is very impressive.
How much fun can you have..........
That driver in front in the end should have been blue flagged in the corner and honestly I would have black flagged his ass in the last corner you were beside him. That was bullshit driving and immature as hell for him to come toward the inside line when you clearly were the faster driver and on line. I noticed the corner workers were don't paying attention to the track. Great driving sir. Would love to do some laps with you in my 911
para domar a la bestia hay que tener un piloto como este

Love this. No taking it easy with this beast, let it stretch its legs and do what it was built to do.
