Porsche 956KH “Jägermeister” No.20 1000 Km Hockenheim 1985

Description

The Porsche 956 and later 962 models could be assembled with two different rear wing configurations:  “low downforce”, used mostly in Le Mans where the 6.5km Hunaudières straight required a very low drag at the expense of downforce, and “high downforce”, for twistier circuits.

Regardless of the configuration, Porsche 956 and 962 cars were the cars to beat in any Group C competition in the early eighties.

This car, driven by Gerhard Berger and Walter Brun, raced the 1000km of Hockenheim, which was part of the 1985 FIA World Endurance Championship.
