R5, was one of the RS/RSR development fleet of factory racers, which Norbert Singer was called on to create. R5 was constructer around a 911 body shell during February 1973. R5 ran the 1000 Kms of Dijon, the third Makes round of the year and won the GT division driven by Gijs van Lennep and Herbert Müller.
After being wrecked during the Nürburgring's 1000 kilometer event, R5 was set aside until Singer started the Carrera RSR Turbo, project. R5 was used as a proof of concept prototype for the new 934s and 985s that would appear in 1976. R5 became the first ever in the use of turbo charging for a production-based race car.
R5 gained several modified components as a test platform for developing the RSR Turbo and ran in the 1974 24 Hours of Le Mans almost finishing 1st overall, ending in second place.
Gunnar Racing purchased the car and reconverted it between 2000 to 2008 back to its 1973 factory racer configuration.

Entered in 'The iconic Porsche 911 at fifty years' class, this 911 is one of a handful made under Group 4 GT racing rules, and a Sebring 12 hours winner from its very first outing in 1973, driven by Peter Gregg and Hurley Haywood. The RSR boasts a rich competition history, from Daytona to Watkins Glen to Mid Ohio to Atlanta before entering the Dr. Bill Jackson Porsche collection in 1976, where it remained until 1999. Under intricate restoration since then up until 2011, the car maintains many unique original characteristics and will be a star of its class at Syon Park in September.
