The Porsche 906 was officially marketed as Carrera 6 and was a racing model. Like the 904, the Porsche 906 was to receive homologation for the sports car class of the sports car world championship. The 906 was produced for the 1966 World Championship of Makes.
It was designed for the FIA’s Group 4 regulations, whilst modified variants of the car, using larger engines and/or cut-down Spyder bodywork, were entered in Group 6, the Sports Prototype category. The 906 became the last street-legal ‘pure’ racer built by Porsche
Now, we have the opportunity to witness it in action thanks to this video shared by Belgian-Motorsport on YouTube. Enjoy the unfiltered and intense sound of its flat-6 engine revving up to its limits around Spa-Francorchamps!
