The Tuthill Porsche Safari Film

- As we come up to the 12-month countdown before the 2023 event, we thought it timed perfectly with releasing our full-length film from this year.
We documented our drivers more closely to get an understanding of the experience from their perspective; with some drama thrown in for good measure.
After the event being postponed from November 2021 to February 2022 it was great to finally welcome competitors who had never tackled Kenya before, and some completely new to rallying, which made the dynamic between customer and crew quite special.
The final results left Patrik Sandell in 2nd place with five other cars finishing in the top 10 and a further four in the top 20. An absolutely fantastic result to see so many cars and drivers complete the rally relatively unscathed.
Despite Tuthill Porsche not getting the 1-2-3 podium finish we'd hoped for, the driving experience is just second-to-none and can't be found at any other event in the world!
With thanks to Petroleum&Co for filming and Oak Lane for editing this film for us, as well as thanks to the event organisers and marshals for making the event happen.

Rip the absolute legend. He will be missed.
Was this his last Rallye? Or one of the last?
@@Tango4N I think this rally was at least 9 months ago
@@Tango4N It was one of his last competitions, yes.
Hearing Ken's voice for the first time had me shook. This really blows. RIP to a legend
It really does... :(
If you scared go to church
I clicked on expecting to watch and flick through. One hour and ten mins later I’m still glued to the video. What I thought would be a logistical nightmare was made to look like a clock just ticking away. Well done to all involved 🎓🏁🏁
Thank you so much! We’re really happy that you enjoyed it 🤗🤗
Same….
This auto played from a previous video I was watching… I thoroughly watched this even after it shown by mistake… great video and event!!!…. I’m subscribed now
As a missionary kid born and raised in Tanzania by parents from Finland..I followed the East African Safari rally when it passed by our doorstep and was very proud when Hannu Mikkola was the first overseas driver to win the event. At the age of 6 years I was asked what I wanted to become as grown up...and the statement was : A rally driver in Africa..of course..wearing t- shirt with the EAS logo and a Datsun 240 Z on. When I got older I followed the rally every stage listening to shortwave radio. After finalizing mechanic trade school and national service in Finland I returned to TZ for my first job : Truckdriver in Africa..😊. The challenges was quite equal..without the speed of course... Now many years later watching CZcams and still following the events going on today I envy those having the chance and opportunities ( money )to rally in Africa. Having been on African roads since day 1 in my life...and still travel them occasionally..there is no place on earth where I feel more at home than on the African roads.❤
what a unique and cool story youv got there mate ! I wonder could you hit up the Tuthills next year for a role in the team somehow? if this is in the realms of possibility..
@@CallumWhatmore That would be coolest dream coming to reality 🥳🥳
I would love to develop your suggestion in to something practical. I speak Swahili, I can use a wrench and I can handle a steering wheel.

Great documentary, hard to believe this is probably one of the last things Ken was filmed in. RIP Ken, thanks for all the stoke on cars that you spread.
I was wondering about that. Probably his last rally as well?
What an event, what an experience, what a movie.
Hope that you are considering entering this into a movie festival or two because the story and production values are incredible and deserve recognition.
This is an absolute tribute to the legends who sacrifice a lot to do what they love and the memories they create for all of us.
We also remember the memories of the legendary Ken Block (RIP) and his team @Hoonigan
You guys are always welcome to Kenya. Watching the Porsche in the wild is something else. The East Africa Classic Rally is the most adventurous rally you'll ever find anywhere on earth. The local traffic, wild animals, the cows. Everything is just wild.
Just came upon this footage by accident, brought back memories of being allowed to stay up late to watch the E A rally come through Dar, I was only about ten then, I am now 76! Must be one of the oldest rallies in the world.
This is a movie I never thought I needed. I remember following the action live and also on social media....its amazing to see the stories behind every photo or short clip uploaded. As a big Ken block fan, it's sad to know he won't compete again on our rally but am at peace knowing he got a taste of Africa. I hope to see the porches again this year! Hopefully this time I will get out of the office to see it for myself! Incredible work guys! 👏
Not to take away to the other drivers - but it got me emotional whenever I saw Ken.. and his impact on Tuthill Junior, so typical that he found a way into his heart immediately. His nice and calm demeanor will be missed.
Great job on the team filming and capturing the event. Hats off to the swedish guys, looked like real professional driving.
What a wonderful piece of film. To the team at Tuthill through to the production team and competitors - take a bow.
Wow. What an experience! An expensive hobby, but that looks like a fantastic journey all the way through. The logistics for this boggle the mind!
I could watch this over and over. An epic film, desperately jealous of everyone involved. Think I need to work harder to afford a Tuthill Porsche
We really hope you enjoy it over and over! We were very excited to get this film out for Christmas :)
If you need a photographer contra me in
Lovely work and masterfully picture here in this film
Hugs from Santo Domingo guys
"When you shut the door on a rallycar, it's just the most peaceful place to be" 👌
Best hour I ever spent watching CZcams or TV for that matter. Excellent documentation and production of petrolheads doing what we love. If I had the money I would sign up for the next years rally in a heartbeat. Thanks for filming and sharing this!
Incredible event superbly documented - thank you!
And RIP Ken Block, a legend lost too early 😢
Spectacular !
RIP Ken.
Two thumbs up for the SD1 !!
This hits different since losing Ken.. The biggest inspiration to me in the car community and will forever be one of the greats! R.I.P. Ken. I always imagine you and Colin, and since the passing of Craig, all 3 of you tearing up the dirt in the sky!!
3 legends that were taken from us too soon, may you all Race.In.Paradise! 🙏
This is incredible - I was expecting a 5 min overview, but this is amazing - please do more
Hearing Ken's voice made me tear up, hearing his laugh made me smile. Rest easy Kenny from the Block.
Fantastic documentary. Blown away by the quality of it was not expecting it to be such a high level. Francis Tuthill reminds me of an officer from a 1950s war movie! Haha. Congrats to all who took part.
Fran is a legend!
My uncle Horst Dettke worked at the "original" East African Safari Rallye in the 70tees among others as a Service Technician for Kugelfischer Injection pumps (today Bosch) - and as a teenager i loved to listen to his stories when he came back ... very much loved to watch this video. Great job - well done.
RIP Mr Block, just last week was watching this. A great guy with such a great passion for the sport that I love.
Stunning cars, stunning scenery, stunning cinematography. Thank you Tuthill.
Fantastic film and documentary of something many of us dream about. RIP to the GOAT Ken Block, taken too soon.
Kenya rally fans celebrate you
Continue drifting in Paradise 🏎️💨💨💨💨💨RIP KB43ver
Just after watching this I read that Ken Block had died.. damn life can be so unexpectedly cruel at times. But this video at least shows how beautiful and exciting his life has been.
How have I only just discovered this, a brilliant watch 👏🏻
Okay, this is nothing short of epic. RIP to the legend
Those older Porsche's sound so so good. I've always been a sucker for em
That was brilliant. Netflix should do a series.
We're thinking about pitching for 2025...
It's amazing how versatile the 911 is!
The legend 😢of car community
Never knew anything about rallying but I recently got interested in safari porsches just from cool instagram pics... Did not expect to watch this whole thing! Looks so so fun.
Well done documentary,story telling perfect,music choice /score perfect. As a Kenyan working towards one day racing on our own roads.
The documentary is just as slick as your organisation and team. Epic work from all involved.
Beautiful film r.i.p. Ken block
Such a beautiful doc, I still miss Ken but this makes me want to work in any way possible in rally now
Rewatching this because I am Kenyan and KB43 🤗
Brilliant film and amazing event and team. One of the best things I've watched all year.
Thanks Tuthill Porsche. Really enjoyed watching this and loving the family bond that is there 🥰.
My dad and Uncles were all born in Kenya and have many stories and much love for the East African Safari Rally before emigrating to the UK. In fact, that’s one of the reasons there’s so much petrol in my blood 😂👍🏼
Much respect and well done to you all 😎👌🏼
Rip to this legend ...Love 4rom 🇰🇪
Fantastic video, congratulations to the Tuthill family. Great to see 3 generations loving every part of rallying, the mechanics and crew are amazing. Wonderful.
haven’t even finished yet but this is shot so beautifully
I have watched a lot of videos with you and your fellow journalists But this is special This is going to fly Your camera crew etc are on to a winning formula
Rest in power 👑💪🙌
Phenomenal film! Must watch.
This was incredibly inspirational. I know virtually nothing about rally, but find myself ready to charge off and figure out how in the world I could make this a reality for myself.
This is what we LOVE to hear!
Looks like a fantastic event and excellent production.
Spiritual home in a Porsche
as it was meant to be
That is an amazing film of an utterly amazing event,thanks team Porsche,great watch and amazing driving.Emotional roller coaster with some mad driving and absolutely stunning nature scenery,huge round of applause to the mechanical team as well!!❤
What an event! It leaves me speechless happy! Well done to all of you! Life is not determined by time, but by events and friendship.
The preparations, the grit, the equipments, the, beautiful rally cars, the people...the logistics...and then the sceneries...of beautiful kenya..
This film is so gripping...
And i must say seeing it once is not enough....its a heartwarming adventure in real rallying world..
Its like a story book..
Thank you all who put it together..
And i must say ..kenya is very beautiful..
An incredible effort to make that film and a great insight into a special event for all involved
A MUST to watch on 50” or bigger TV!!!
10000000%! :)
Awesome!! I had the pleasure of competing in the same events as Francis when he ran the Beetle! 😎 Memories to savour ❤
Well done! A brilliant film. A lot has gone into preparing the cars and keeping them on the road. Its good to see the involvement of three generations of Tuthills. Its great seeing Philip on the rally; we are used to bumping into him on STG. Looking forward to next one already.
Glad to see u in my mother nation Kenya❤
I just love it when these gems of a video pop up in my feed 😊
What an amazing piece of work. Beautifully filmed, fabulously edited and such fascinating content. Thank you so much for posting on CZcams for everyone to be able to enjoy. 🙏🙌👏👏👏
Oh my. Goosebumps.
I’m back in Kenya in March 23 for my 3rd volunteering trip.
I absolutely adore the place.
You’re videos are getting me everytime… I love what you’re doing…
absolutely cracking video richard , brought back some great memories of kenya from my subaru 555 days, great to see some old colleagues, anytime you need some extra help, please call, looked epic
Awesome film, cheers from Sydney AU
Simply awesome.You guys are heroes 👏👍 Great team, great 911s.
Such an awesome gift for Christmas! Thank you Tuthill Porsche for an amazing video! 😊 🏎️ 🎉
Amazing film, crew, leadership, and experience. Thanks for sharing all of it with us.
Absolutely fantastic video. It shows the passion required to conquer the Safari.
This was an epic watch. Thanks!
speechless, that movie was awesome. your service is out of this world.
Incredible. Talk about life goals! Must book the ice driving
ABSOLUTELY AMAZING ❤
I found and watched this the day b4 Ken passed. RIP Crazy how you never know when your time is up. Thanks for a great little peak into how this is a team sport where the support guys do most of the work for the drivers to get all the glory. (former cycling team principle)
Seriously if you have the finances for it why on earth would anyone buy another boring Supercar when they could go and do this instead? Thank you for making this film and letting us all enjoy the journey with you.
This is the most lovely film I've watched.
The Beauty of African Safari Rally..
See You on the Next one..
Glad I came across the vid 👍
These cars are going to appreciate in value after this so much.
Super great film.
and R.I.P Ken Block🥲
10 minuts in and I love it. Just saw ken blocks name, man am I going to miss him. Lovely to see these beautifull cars in action.
Wow!! What a film! Pour a nice wine or whisky and relax and watch this. Brilliant #Tuthill.
legendary and heartwarming
Such a cool event this has to be on my bucket list ....and great production 👏🏻
Lovely documentary. I saw it last night and this morning I read Ken was dead. So sad.
Thanks very much to Tuthill Porsche for sharing this experience with us CZcams viewers, a great film and fascinating insight into this unique Safari rally. Well done to all those involved in producing the film. RIP to Ken Block.
Thank you so much Chris. It was great to showcase all aspects of the experience with you all, and hopefully we can do even more in the future!
Great video, so iconic seeing those cars in that landscape. RIP Ken
glorious movie.
Such a phenomenal race/event that's been put together here. Will definitely be following it when it happens in future and wish everyone good luck! So cool that Ken was able to take this on before his unfortunate accident happened. Rip legend
Stunning scenery soundtrack and the sense of teamwork and total professionalism. Block had real pace but looked like he was there to learn and have fun. Fitting epitaph.
Excellent production! Nothing beats rallying.
Just got round to watching. No skipping through, end to end this is totally epic! I’m sure it only is a taster of what it’s actually like on the ground. Well done Tuts! ❤👏
Tim, thank you so much for this comment! We're really proud of this film, and starting to showcase the whole environment around tackling this incredible event. It would be nothing without the best people, drivers, organisers and caterers, which makes it even more special to be able to showcase them :)
The best thing i have ever seen. And than the ralley it self.
Enjoy all u can of your close ones.
This is an AMAZING DOC! If you didn’t care about rally, this is the best little intro! Also love that Ken block did it which is extra special!
Thank you so much! Really glad you enjoyed it. We hope the next one is as exciting for you all :)
What an amazing event! Would love to be part of this. Thanks for sharing 👍
My country is beautiful.. what a film!!!
Wow!
I came across Porsche Tuthill through a Chris Harris film back in... well quite a long time now.
I'm glad and mostly grateful that I did, because since then I've been following most things Tuthill and Porsche in particular.
This is EPIC, a great piece of film and such amazing stories.
Much appreciated to the Tuthill family and all the people involved on such event. THANK YOU.
I hope some day I can get an early narrow body 911, under 200 bhp on narrow tyres as recommended by Richard as the best car for road blasts 😎
Blimmin brilliant, thank you so much for making this.
26:00 love the dude just chilling on the wall!
Really good watch that was fantastic
One of the coolest things I have seen, absolutely fantastic, well done to all involved!! 👍👍
Everything is here: "Passion-Porsche-Racing" and moreover Tuthill's amazing gift for enthusiasts!
Fantastic insight into what doing this Rally takes, let along supporting 15 cars! Outstanding andf very, very enjoyable to watch. Thank you
Thank you so much! A great effort from everyone involved, and we're really happy that you enjoyed it :)
