911 Motorsport - 25th Anniversary SCRS Event - Abbeville September 2009
. On the 23rd of September 2009 911 Motorsport hosted an exclusive commemoration day event. This was organised on the Abbeville Race Track in France to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the Porsche 911 SCRS.
At our event we had 11 cars present, considering that only 21 were built at the factory this was without a doubt the largest gathering of SCRS Porsches ever since that day that all 21 were together at the factory in Stuttgart back in 1983! 8 cars were the real deal, one was the ex Touroul car, which was the last ever 911 to have participated in Le Mans in the GTO category and 2 others were Rothmans tribute cars.
Rothmans had sent out one car out of their museum accompanied by Nabil Karam and Nigel Riddle. Belgian Rally Racer Pascal Gaban and Le Mans Legend Gijs Van Lennep were present as well along with many others who either raced or worked on the SCRS back in the days, it was an amazing day in racing history and the cherry on top of the cake was when the SCRS 911s hit the track and we were all able to enjoy that sweet mechnical music that these great cars produce!
