See Porsche 962C Race Car Driven On Public Roads

"Race car for the road" has become somewhat of a cliché in recent years but this Porsche 962 perfectly encapsulates that description. It started out in life as one of the privately owned 962s built for Group C, specifically one of the 11 chassis from Kremer Racing. It now wears a license plate since it has been converted for street use without losing the visual drama of the original car. The flat-six with its side exhaust sounds epic.

At the heart of the road-legal Kremer 962CK6 is a 3.0-liter engine with a pair of turbochargers making a colossal 750 horsepower. While that might not sound like much in today's hypercar world with 2,000-hp machines, this Porsche only ways about 1,000 kilograms (2,204 pounds). The 1987 Le Mans Group C specification had an official top speed of 217 mph (350 km/h).
