    More than serving a rational purpose, Porsche history in rally has been always driven by the passion of a few brave guys facing the brand clear orientation towards track racing. Vic Elford (one of Porsche top racing drivers of the late 60’s, early 70’s) had an important role convincing his employer to get 911’s into international rally, while Jurgen Barth (Porsche racing costumer branch chief for decades and a talented driver himself) was a major influence in Porsche cars rally use during Gr.4 and Gr.B years. More recently we had some Porsche importers and dealers involved in national rally and a few private teams, like Tuthill and RD, homologating RGT cars for international use. I’m curious to know more on RM article, but it wouldn’t be surprising if this new effort is another small scale passionate program, probably inspired by the amazing Dumas.
