again - We are/were talking about current/recent Porsche racing. Porsche has concentrated since 1989 in GT racing with the exception of the 3 year LMP2 RS Spyder project... and even that has transferred its tech to raod going cars. (see the upcoming 918)

Why you have forgotten Porsche 911 gt1 and Joest car?

LMP2 Porsche was made in 2005, 918 - 2013. 8 years of deriving... Not a short time.

Not forgotten. The GT1 - although really a protoype, was in fact the then top call which was a GT calss. Remembr the Mclaren F1?

The Porsche 911 GT1 was a car designed for competition in the GT1 class of sportscar racing, which also required a street legal version for homologation purposes. The limited-production street-legal version was labeled the 911 GT1 Straßenversion (Street version).

Mclaren F1 was a series car that was scaled up to racing, gt1 was a pure racing car, that was homologated. Even gt1'98 was homologated with 1 car.

2 different approaches.
