What a gruelling event. You start in Moscow. Go through Syberia. Head along to the capital of Mongolia…which is some city I can’t pronounce, let alone spell. The “course” is 4,349 miles long. And course is a relative word, watching some of the recap videos saw people lost multiple times and then just hauling across a river or marsh or desert.
But Porsche pulled off quite a feat with their special edition Cayenne S. Of the top ten finishers, Porsche held NINE of the positions. Regardless of what you think of SUVs you can’t deny Porsche’s prowess regardless of the surface or environment.
Check out more pictures here. So this year I get to cross 24 Hours of Lemons off of my list of things to do… maybe next year I can knock this one off of my list. Porsche, are you listening?

1. Google “capital of Mongolia”
2. Copy the result, and paste
3. Not very difficult to pronounce “Ulaanbaatar”, unless you have some kinda speech impediment.
4. “Pulled oFF” not “pulled of”
5. Welcome to the internet
