Exclusive new edition of the Porsche 935
01 Oct 2018|1,137 views
Featuring a body reminiscent of the legendary Porsche 935/78, the 690bhp competition vehicle will be produced in a limited number of 77 units. "This spectacular car is a birthday present from Porsche Motorsport to fans all over the world," says Dr. Frank-Steffen Walliser, Vice President Motorsport and GT Cars for Porsche AG. "Because the car isn't homologated for any series, engineers and designers didn't have to follow the usual rules and thus had freedom in the development."
The race car's technology is geared towards clubsport events and private training on race tracks. It is based on the street-legal 911 GT2 RS high-performance sports car.
Like its historic predecessor, most of the body has been replaced or supplemented by carbon fibre reinforced polymer parts. With its streamlined extended rear, the new Porsche 935 measures 4.87m in length. The width of the exclusive clubsport race car is 2.03m.
The spectacular aerodynamics are a completely new development, and pay tribute to the Porsche 935/78 Le Mans race car, which fans dubbed 'Moby Dick' due to its elongated shape, massive fairings, and white base colour. The distinctive wheel arch air vents on the front fenders, which also are a feature of the Porsche 911 GT3 R customer racing vehicle, increase downforce at the front axle.
Many exterior details are a salute to successful vehicles from the company's motor racing history. The aerodynamically enhanced rims echo those of the 935/78, with the LED rear lights on the rear wing endplates adopted from the 919 Hybrid LMP1 race car. The side mirrors come from the current Le Mans-winning 911 RSR, with the exposed titanium tailpipes modelled on those from the Porsche 908 from 1968.


The carbon fibre steering wheel and the colour display behind it have been taken from the 2019 911 GT3 R. A massive safety cage combined with a racing bucket seat and a six-point safety harness help ensure maximum safety.
A second seat for a passenger is available as an optional extra. Air-conditioning keeps the interior cool.
The new 935 is powered by a state-of-the-art 3.8-litre flat-six-twin-turbo engine, which is largely identical to the high-performance standard unit mounted in the road-legal 911 GT2 RS. Power is transferred to the 310mm-wide rear wheels via a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission with rigid mounts.
Typical of the 911, the weight distribution ensures excellent traction and braking performance. Six-piston aluminium monobloc racing calipers on the front axle, in combination with internally ventilated and grooved iron brake discs with a 390mm diameter, provide excellent braking performance. The rear axle is fitted with four-piston calipers and 355mm discs.
Like the road-legal 911 GT2 RS, the 1,380kg 935 is equipped with Porsche Stability Management including traction control as well as an anti-lock braking system. Thanks to a so-called map switch, these assistance systems can be adjusted separately or switched off completely, depending upon the track situation.
