The Porsche 935 is one of the most successful and iconic race cars ever built. But it stopped racing sometime in the 1980s and it's rarely taken out of collectors' garages nowadays. Fortunately, the folks over at Canepa Motorsport fielded one at the Rolex Monterey Motorsport Reunion and recorded 25 minutes of footage on the Laguna Seca.

Since these race cars are rare and expensive, most of us will never get to drive one. So this is our best chance at getting up and personal with the mighty 935. There's plenty of in-car footage too, so we get a cool POV of Bruce Canepa running hot laps at Laguna Seca as he moves from 35th to first position. Seeing this 1979 Porsche 935 take on the legendary Corkscrew turn is pure awesomeness.
