Miles,

absolutely, Porsche was really concerned about court cases and, above all,
bad publicity.

Below are some more pics of the white 917.
Car was build by factory mechanics around a spare tube frame and a spare
turbocharged can am engine. This particular car had 600 HP and was later sold to the US. It was geared to go from nought to 120 miles in 8 seconds.
Can you imagine maintaining such a car in your garden shed???

Also, see a pic of a LMK 917, road registered, at a Porsche Club meeting in Braunschweig this year.
