Re: Porsche Guru’s needed
The RSR was one of the 15 that was built for the original IROC series and was put on poll in the first race by Emmo . Fittipaldi was late for the drivers meeting so they made him start DFL . He moved quickly through the field and went off track at one point and bottomed the car out. The RSRs have a plastic tank and he punctured it. Since 3 of the 15 cars were back ups and the three Riverside races were run over one weekend in Nov of 1973 the car never raced again in IROC and was replaced by one of the back ups. Only 6 drivers moved on to the finale at Daytona . The car was sold to an IMSA driver and one year it after Sebring the car was sold to a man from Columbia................. guys name was Pablo Escobar [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif[/img]

Re: Porsche Guru’s needed
Van,
That RSR is one killer looking car. The story behind it seems to be second to known also! Thanks for sharing. __ On a slightly different note, I figured I would share these pictures. I was in Paris last week and saw this.... 959 anyone?
