Air conditioning keeps the interior cool. A second seat for a passenger is available as an optional extra. A massive safety cage combined with a racing bucket seat and a six-point safety harness help ensure maximum safety. The carbon fiber steering wheel and the color display behind it have been taken from the 2019 911 GT3 R. The knob on the gearshift lever has a laminated wood design and is reminiscent of historic Porsche race cars such as the 917 and the 909 Bergspyder as well as the street-legal Carrera GT super sports car. These historical references are also visible in the cockpit. The side mirrors come from the current Le Mans-winning 911 RSR, with the exposed titanium tailpipes modelled on those from the Porsche 908 from 1968. Many exterior details are a salute to successful vehicles from the company’s motor racing history: The aerodynamically enhanced rims echo those of the 935/78, with the LED rear lights on the rear wing endplates adopted from the 919 Hybrid LMP1 race car. Measuring 75.2 inches (1909 millimeters) in width by 15.8 inches (400 millimeters) in depth, the rear wing promotes aerodynamic balance. The distinctive wheel arch air vents on the front fenders, which also are a feature of the Porsche 911 GT3 R customer racing vehicle, increase downforce at the front axle. The spectacular aerodynamics are a completely new development, and pay tribute to the Porsche 935/78 Le Mans race car, which fans dubbed “Moby Dick” due to its elongated shape, massive fairings, and white base color. The width of the exclusive clubsport race car is 80.1 inches (2.03 meters). With its streamlined extended rear, the new Porsche 935 measures 191.5 inches (4.87 meters) in length. Like its historic predecessor, most of the body has been replaced or supplemented by carbon-fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) parts. It is based on the street-legal 911 GT2 RS high-performance sports car. “Because the car isn’t homologated for any series, engineers and designers didn’t have to follow the usual rules and thus had freedom in the development.” The race car’s technology is geared towards clubsport events and private training on racetracks.
