The team did well and with time they moved on to touring car racing in European championships. Peter Seikel himself even won the Group N championship in 1979. After racing a diverse fleet of touring cars, in 1994 Seikel got into GT racing, with a partnership with Porsche in the BPR Global GT Series. And concurrently, he tried his luck at La Sarthe. With a solo car in the race, his <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.porscheroadandrace.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/s_15_HDK-5557.jpg\" target=\"_blank\">Porsche 968 Turbo RS<\/a> had to abandon the race on the 84th lap. The team went back to Le Mans in 1995, 1996 and 2000 with consistent results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.w-143.com\/+upload\/porsche\/race911\/porsche_911_gt3-rs_83_03.jpg\" alt=\"\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Not exactly a striking livery in my humble opinion.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>For the 2001 <em>24 Heures du Mans<\/em> they had a one car team. Again with a Porsche, this time it was a 911 GT3-RS (chassis #WP0ZZZ99Z1S692075). The GT3-RS is a beast of a racing machine, with a boxer-6 3598 cm\u00b3 engine that delivers over 440 hp. But not only powerful, the GT3-RS has a very important characteristic, specially for Le Mans &#8211; it&#8217;s reliable. To the point that the <strong>GT3-RS #83<\/strong> came in sixth position overall and snatched a <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/bucket.carmodel.com\/images\/cm-lg\/84639_3.jpg\" target=\"_blank\">class win<\/a>. However, despite the top honors in the GT class in 2001, due to financial concerns Peter Seikel closed down Seikel Motorsports in 2007.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.w-143.com\/+upload\/porsche\/race911\/porsche_911_gt3-rs_83_02.jpg\" alt=\"GT3-RS #83\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The GT3-RS #83 is a bad model, no way to hide that&#8230;<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>About the model, I will allow myself to be blunt: it sucks \ud83d\ude23. Though the paint job is decent and wheels are okay, just look at those exhaust pipes. Although there are (rare) <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.w-143.com\/index.php\/oreca-01-6-altaya\/\" target=\"_blank\">exceptions<\/a> to this rule, once again Altaya proves that their models are VERY badly detailed. And in this case it&#8217;s aggravating because the GT3-RS #83 was a class winner. Consequently, this is a car that I need to upgrade.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>2001 Porsche 996 GT3-RS Pilots: F. Babini, G. Rosa, L.
