The Porsche 911 SC RS was the first rally car prepared by Prodrive for the Porsche Rothmans Rally Team.

The car was built on the basis of the 2nd generation of the 911 model. Porsche in the 911 SC RS used a body from the Turbo model and aluminum doors and fiberglass bumpers in order to leigh weight the car as much as possible.

The car had a 6-cylinder, 3-liter engine in the traditional Porsche Boxer configuration with a power of about 290HP. Which, with a car weight of 960 kg, gave the ratio of 3.3 kg/KM.
 

The car competed in the Group B era, so its greatest successes were limited to victories in gravel/sand rounds such as the Oman Rally, which it won in 1984 and 1985.
