Got to meet him one time when I arranged for him to come to our pca region’s 50th anniversary party. Super guy.

Crap. In addition to being a great driver, it sounds like he was a gentleman.

A truly remarkable man. Started as a rally driver and won Daytona for Porsche in 1967, among many, many other things.
His stories were wonderful. If you watch one thing, check out The Speed Merchants, the story of the early 1970’s manufacturers world championship for sports cars.
It’s pure Vic!

Had Vic and a guy named Derek as the instructors for the original Porsche Driving School. I attended at Blackhawk Farms
Watching each drive my 951 while I was in the righthand seat was an epiphany.
