Hello,

I think that those Porsches are rescue cars for the Nurburgring rather than Le Mans. The first
picture certainly looks like the Nurburgring. There is a reference on Wikipedia to the Porsche
rescue vehicles having an R on the side. The ONS in the description also refers to the
Nurburgring. Looks like Minichamps getting every last bit of mileage out of their Porsche 911
casting.

Cheers,
Mike
