Gebhardt, Germany.  The brother Günther and Fritz Gebhardt first built a racing car in 1984 for Group C2.  The C91 was built for the IMSA GTP class and had a turbocharged Audi V5 engine which was later replaced in 1992 by the current 3.5 litre Cosworth V8 engine. It had a carbon fibre chassis.  In 1991 it finished sixth and eighth in Interserie races at Zeltweg. At the Watkins Glen 500km it finished 20th where one of the drivers was Derek Bell.  In 1992 its best result was 10th place in the Nurburgring Interserie race.  It didn't finish the 500km races at Monza and Silverstone.
