Norbert Singer (born 16 November 1939) is a German automotive engineer. He has played a key role in every one of Porsche’s 16 overall race victories between 1970 and 1998 at the 24 Hours of Le Mans. Singer was involved in the 911 Carrera RSR and RSR Turbo 2.1 from 1972 to 1974 Singer was then given the task of developing the Porsche 911 road car for racing, and in doing so he created eventually what is by far the most successful customer race car that Porsche ever produced: the Porsche 935 which won at the 1979 24 Hours of Le Mans outright, a remarkable feat for a modified 15-year-old road car design. Following this, Singer designed the bodywork of the Porsche 956 and 962 Group C cars which won 7 24 Hours of Le Mans titles and three Manufacturers’ and two teams’ World Championships between 1982 and 1986.
