If you haven’t heard of Kelly-Moss Road and Race (KMR), you’re missing out as the company builds some amazing, custom Porsche 911s, transforming them from ‘ordinary’ into off-road animals. Hoonigan Autofocus recently had the opportunity to check out some of the company’s latest creations.
While this clip doesn’t really feature any driving scenes of the 911 models that star in it, there are some astonishing pictures of the customized Porsches drifting around a frozen lake and being put to the test.
The white Porsche 911 featured, dubbed ‘Safari TX’, was commissioned by an enthusiast in Texas who uses it as his daily driver and is equipped to tackle pretty much any type of terrain. Not only has its drivetrain been updated with a 3.4-liter engine featuring fuel injection, but the exterior features a host of new panels including rally-inspired driving lights on the hood, a prominent bash plate up front and benefits from an increased ride height and off-road-focused tires.

Inside, the car has been outfitted with a host of modern features including air conditioning, cruise control, and cooled seats, meaning it is more than capable of dealing with the Texan heat.
A handful of other cars from Kelly-Moss Road and Race are featured, and one of them is a modern Porsche 911 Turbo S that has actually been converted to a hybrid. The customization firm has slotted in a small electric motor where the flywheel would normally be while a small battery pack is now located up front. The addition of the electric motor and battery add 150 hp to the Turbo S while only adding 150 lbs (68 kg) of weight.
