	Porsche 911 GT1 (1996-1998)
		The GT1 was originally developed from a 911 with Porsche instructing designer Ampferer Norbert Singer too help achieve the racers two main goals: (1) It has to look like a 911 (2) It has to be capable of wining at Le-Mans.
		The fundamental drawback in racing with the conventional 911 is its flat six being placed in a rear-engine state, so Porsche moved it to the mid-engined state and with the change came instant aerodynamic-dynamic improvements.
		The GT1 Stasseversion was detuned for street legal use by limiting it to 410kw or 550hp while still inheriting the racers double wishbone suspension at all four corners, HUGE brembo ABS carbon-fibre brakes, 4 catalytic converters for emissions, body pannels made from a Cabon-fibre/Kevelar mix and power steering.
