We are talking not about a typical Porsche, which in this case is also controlled by a well-known Mexican.

That Mexican is Héctor Alonso Rebaque, a driver who in the ’70s thirteen points scored in 58 Formula 1 races. He tried it even with their own team, but was never as successful as he was in the IMSA championship. Rebaque bought his Porsche 911 Carrera 3.0 RSR (1974) with the help of a sponsor Café Mexicano and won his first race, the IMSA 1000 KM-race in Mexico City.
