Now, new pictures are taken at the newly built Rally Porsche. As you probably know, it took some time before we got the engine … Now it became due, no midnight rally but there will be other chances. Watch and enjoy the building!

Fun facts about Porsche’s rally efforts!

Porsche was like many other automakers never really interested in the rally but did what was needed for marketing purposes. At least they tried to make it even with its own factory team 911 (which ironically would have been 901, but it was denied them because it was a long-standing reputation Peugeot numbers!)

Porsche 911 was a car that required a hefty touch to be ok in the rally here. Despite private efforts were, however, no success. It was a good car that fared well in the classes that can be compared with today’s group N.

But Porsche’s real effort came in 1968 with a famous förarduo by Vic Elford and Pauli Toivonen. Which according to Porsche’s leadership could be a really good concept as to 1: 1 911 was an excellent car for the rally and that they had opportunities to win the legendary Monte Carlo Rally.
What was peculiar was that the two models were tested in parallel. 912 was a 4-cylinder version of the 911 and 914, the so-called VW – Porsche. The strange thing was that the Swedish driver Bjorn Waldegard could have won a triple victory of the Monte Carlo Rally with Porsche. This failed, unfortunately.

Porsche rally engagement lasted only until the early 1970s. They had some kind of a comeback in the Safari Rally in 1978, where they finished with a respectable second place, but they were beaten by a Peugeot 504 which was covered in mud and dents, with more than half an hour, which seemed to break Porsche’s pride and to was the last rally drive from Porsche.

However, there has been much more experimental with the Porsche 911 than that. The most famous team, the French Almera team put up with Porsches in Monte Carlo and then won the Tour de Corse 1980 with Jean-Luc Theria.
It was the last victory in a Porsche at WRC level.

Now renorveringen of Baggen in full swing.
