#23. 'HYATT' ALEX JOB RACING.
WINNER : 2006 MID-OHIO, ALMS.
Drivers : Timo BERNHARD / Romain DUMAS

With the RS Spyder - the first Porsche built exclusively for motor sport since the Le Mans winning GT1 from 1998 - Porsche made a comeback to prototype racing.
The RS Spyder is powered by a newly-developed 90-degree V8 endurance racing engine, fitted with a mandatory air restrictor for running in the American Le Mans Series. The unit delivers approx. 480 hp from a 3.4-litre capacity. In compliance with the 2006 ALMS and A.C.O. regulations, the RS Spyder weighed in at 775 kilograms. The minimum permissible weight was achieved by a highly integrated lightweight concept, without the extensive use of exotic and hence expensive materials.

Already by mid-October 2005, Penske Motorsports won the LMP2 class with the RS Spyder at its first test outing, the ALMS season-final in Laguna Seca. In 2006, Timo Bernhard (Germany) and Romain Dumas (France) drove the new # 7 Porsche RS Spyder from last position on the grid to victory at the third round in Mid-Ohio, securing for Porsche the first overall victory in this race series with the world's fastest sports prototypes. Team mates Sascha Maassen (Belgium) and Lucas Luhr (Monaco) made the double win perfect at the wheel of the # 6 RS Spyder.
