Icon of the motor sport world from the 70s

The Porsche 917 is one of the most successful racing sports cars of the 1970s. With the 917K, Porsche achieved an international breakthrough as a brand in the motor sport scene. The massive twelve-cylinder engine and 4.5 litre displacement delivers 600 bhp. The typical air cooling found on this car was typical for the time. By positioning the fan wheel horizontally and above the mid-engine, it was now open and guaranteed to provide a sufficient air supply. The short tail version improved handling, which had been difficult to control until then. So it is not surprising that, in 1970, the Porsche 917K achieved the brand's greatest success to date, and that a Porsche was the first car to cross the finish line in the 24 Hours of Le Mans.
