Only 20 units saw the light of the day!

The delay in the Porsche 959 gave birth to the 911 SC/RS in 1984. The Rothmans, sponsor of the Porsche Group C race, were in the dire need of a racing car; hence 911 SC/RS came to rescue. The SC/RS had 3.0-litre engine rather than the much advanced 3.2-litre rear-mounted motor energizing the rear wheels. According to the available data, the maximum power churned out by the engine mated to a 5-speed manual tranny was 247BHP @7000rpm and the peak torque resided at 250Nm @6500rpm.
