Porsche is one of just a handful of brands that have strong proportions of both racing cars and road cars. It comes on April 28, you will celebrate another on the occasion of another. On April 28, 1975, the Porsche 917K car that took control of Loman just a few years ago was launched by Weissach, not heading towards a race track but committed to Paris instead.
The Italian Count wanted Gregorio Rossi Di Montelera, an emotional Porsche agent, impossible: on Road 917. upon his request, the 30th structure was modified for street use, additional mirrors, horn, turmoil, exhaust terms, and backup frame. Inside, the seats were cut with the Hermes Tan leather, with the deer leather on the dashboard, doors and ceiling, reminding us of the seventies. The car also kept the original wooden transformation handle. While the 917S race was distinguished by the iconic Gulf race or Salzburg’s liver, the 30th Temple in Martini Silver was reformulated. Alabama’s license board closed her identity.
Now, after 50 years, it seems that Porsche is ready to take advantage of this spirit again, such as the German auto industry company He disturbed something special. From the profile, it appears to be a legal version in the street of the 963 race. Could this be the next pioneer Hypercar for Porsche, that is, the successor of 918 Spyder and the potential competitor of McLaren W1 and Ferrari F80? It seems that 919 Street 919 in the streets and electricity X, which is seen as a possibility, is less likely amid a wider slowdown in the EV market. Hypercar derived from 963, which mixes the latest endurance technology in Porsche with the ability to use in the real world, can be the ideal answer to the “Holy Trinity” in the New Age.
Contact with the past passes deeply. In mobilizing a 12 -year -old flat engine, Hans Mezagar, 917K gave Porsche his first victory in 1970 by Richard Atwood and Herman Hermann. Not only did this victory put its workshop on the map, but also made the brand the brand, and that the heritage of motorsport continues to this day with a 963 race car. With the continuation of Count Rossi from Martini Silver 917K in the street in southern France, a new generation of Porsche drivers may be able to try something similar in the new Hyper-Crear race in June.
