Porsche 956

Automobiles

The Porsche 956 was a Group C sports-prototype racing car that Norbert Singer designed and Porsche built in 1982 for the FIA World Sportscar Championship. It was upgraded to the 956B in 1984. In 1983 Stefan Bellof drove one around the 20.832 km Nuerburgring Nordschleife in 6:11.13 in qualifying for the 1000 km race, a record that stood for 35 years until Timo Bernhard beat it in a derestricted Porsche 919 Evo on 29 June 2018. The 962 replaced it in 1984 and 1985 after regulation changes made the 956 obsolete in the American IMSA series.
