Only four Porsche
968 RS Turbo's were produced by the factory in Germany between 1992 and 1993 to compete in the ADAC GT racing series in Germany.
Between 1993 and 1996
Fitzgerald Racing Services in Australia, with the assistance of Porsche Motorsport, converted four right hand drive 968 Club Sports to Turbo RS specification using factory supplied parts. They were the only private racing team to receive such support for this model.
Each example cost more than AUD$225,000 and were tuned to suit the
specific requirements of the first owners.
These cars are of
similar output of performance to a Porsche 911 GT3 but with a far more balanced
handling. They were raced successfully
in Australia in many events including the Targa Tasmania, Targa West and Dutton
rallies. All four cars could be street
registered with some minor modifications but were primarily
designed for racing and club use.
