2080: Bruce Canepa

Eli and Sam had the pleasure of hosting Bruce Canepa on this episode of FFT. Bruce is held in very high regard amongst the automotive community, most notably for his business based in Scotts Valley, CA. Canepa’s automotive mecca, which bears his name, is a state-of-the-art facility in which Canepa has a restoration shop, dealership, and a museum. A car that comes out of a Canepa restoration is a car that most people “in the know” would refer to as “perfect”. Bruce’s attention to detail, anti-corner cutting philosophy, and pursuit of excellence no matter what type of vehicle he is working on, is something that is immediately apparent when you come “face-to-metal'' with one of his cars. His lucrative business along with his successful racing career which involved cars like the Porsche 935, 962, and March GTP car, called for a lengthy episode full of good anecdotes from Bruce’s busy life.

The Need for Design &amp; SpeedWhen we think of speed and the movement of horsepower and race vehicle designs on the track, history has proven that many can truly compete and dominate. From the early years of 1867, races were organized to prove time trials among man and machine, and ultimately progressed to competition with manufacturers, as specialist cars were designed for maximum speed. Throughout race history, from Sprint Cars to NASCAR, to IMSA, and the famed Monaco Grand Prix, this common mantra runs through the racing bloodline across the globe.Porsche Life: The Racing Intensity &amp; History of Bruce Canepa Among the storied history of race legends and designs, there exists a common pursuit of attention to detail and the drive for an impeccable approach to win. From the 2001 Truck Hill Climb of Pikes Peak record breaking run, to pairing up with motorsports icons Rick Mears and Monte Shelton at the 24 Hours of Daytona, then co-driving with Gianpiero Moretti in the famous MOMO team Porsche 935 at Daytona, Mid Ohio, and Riverside in 1980-81, Bruce closed out the 1980's successfully competing in his own Porsche 962 at West Coast IMSA events. In 1988, he purchased his first Porsche 959 and began development of the U.S. legal version.We are honored to have Bruce Canepa, CEO of Canepa Group Inc., https://bit.ly/BruceCanepa, as this week’s special guest to explore his life of racing, design, restoration and the Canepa Museum, a section of the 70,000 sq.ft.
