2006 Porsche 911 (997.1) GT3 Cup Rally

The Porsche 911 GT3 (997.1) Cup Rally is based on the fifth-generation Porsche 911, known internally as the 997. More precisely, the 997.1 version as it predates the facelift. It features significant modifications that have enabled it to compete very competitively in the CERA (Campeonato de España de Rally de Asfalto).

These modifications are based on the GT-Rally homologation issued by the RFEDA (Real Federación Española de Automovilismo). Thanks to this homologation, specifically created to allow the participation of vehicles not homologated by the FIA for competition, these vehicles can participate in competitions held on stages and circuits in Spain.

The Porsche 911 (997.1) GT3 Cup Rally is powered by the original engine of the 997 generation, the naturally aspirated flat-six 3.6-liter engine that develops 415 hp in the original GT3 road version.

The high power of the Porsche 911 (997.1) GT3 Cup Rally, combined with its 1,230 kg of weight in empty condition, including all mandatory safety systems due to the RFEDA homologation, made this vehicle a strong contender for class victories and even overall victories, as demonstrated by the statistics of the CERA championship.
