A Legend with a Twist

The Porsche 935: a true legend whose story goes back to its development for the Group 5 racing category that began in 1976. It quickly became champion that first year, and in 1977 too, it was the class of the field, with the works team joined by numerous privately-run 935s. One of those private teams was Kremer Racing, which made some of its own modifications to the body, and ran the 670hp 6-cylinder turbo engine car in a striking livery that borrowed its colors and the mascot from the title sponsor Vaillant. Results were impressive, as the Vaillant car held off the competition in the 6 Hours of Hockenheim that July for a hard-earned victory; it would also record four wins in the German domestic series the Deutsche Rennsport Meisterschaft that year.
