Porsche 956

Porsche conceived the 956 with the so-called ground effect for the Group C. It was sucked to the track surface by a specially shaped under-floor, increasing cornering speeds considerably. The debut at Le Mans in 1982 yielded a triple victory. This car was used as a test mule and played a role in the development of the TAG Turbo engine. In the autumn of 1983, the car could be seen at the Frankfurt International Motor Show IAA, now decked out in moter-of-pearl. When the Porsche Museum adopted the race car, it was restored to the livery of the 1980s Porsche works squad.
