“We are commemorating the debut of the Porsche 906 at the 1966 24 Hours of Le Mans. With only 50 units ever produced, the 906 showcased remarkable performance, finishing just behind the Ford GT40, a feat made more impressive considering the Ford team’s substantial budget aimed at outpacing Ferrari. This shirt pays tribute to the achievement of a small company that, despite lacking the financial resources of giants like Ford or Ferrari, left a lasting mark at Le Mans.”

 

History of the Porsche 906 :

In its debut in the 1966 24 Hours of Daytona, the Carrera 6 finished 6th overall, and won its class against Ferrari Dino 206 Ps. At the 12 Hours of Sebring, Hans Herrmann/Herbert Müller finished fourth overall and won the class, as well as at the 1000 km of Monza, Spa, and Nürburgring.

Willy Mairesse/Gerhard Müller, driving a privately entered 906, secured an overall victory at the 1966 Targa Florio when the factory cars failed. At the 1966 24 Hours of Le Mans, the 906 placed 4-5-6-7 behind three Ford GT40 Mk IIs, outlasting all of the previously dominant V12-engined Ferrari Ps.
