INTRODUCTION
Born out of Regulation
dictations from the GT1 racing category, a total of 25 cars must be built for
road use. Porsche developed a fully road-legal version, dubbed "911 GT1 StraBenversion",
and delivered one in early 1996 to the German government for compliance testing, which it passed. The engine had
to be slightly de-tuned to meet European emissions laws, although its 537 hp and dry
weight of 1,150 kg proved to be more than adequate, this was due to the
fact that it was designed in CAD to be manufactured completely out of carbon
fibre. Meaning this vehicle can accelerate to 100 km/h from a standstill
in 3.9 seconds on its way to a top speed of 308 km/h.
