Product Description

This book chronicles the history of Porsche's all-conquering 956/962 sports cars. The Group C category, for which the 956 was built, allowed Porsche to demonstrate their expertise with the turbocharged racing engine, and the car won at Le Mans in its debut year of 1982. The 956, and the later 962, went on to dominate the French Classic for an unbroken run of six years until 1988. During this spell, Porsche also lifted the World Sports Car Championship crown for five successive years. Here is the full story of the dominant Group C car of the 1980s.

5.0 out of 5 stars Porsche 956/962 by Peter Morgan, 15 Mar 2004

By A Customer

This is the complete history of Porsche's legendary Group C racers the 956 & 962. Written by journalist & Porsche expert Peter Morgan, he describes the cars design,development & career,& talks to many of the characters & drivers who were involved in the project. The book mainly follows the progress of the works team but the private teams like Joest & Brun are also covered. At the back of the book there is a complete list of all the cars international wins & chassis numbers. The book also contains loads of colour photos many of which I have never seen before. Absolutely brilliant!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars The Bible on the history and development of this famous Porche., 5 Sep 2006

By	Mr. P. J. R. LEWIS (Llandudno N Wales) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER) (REAL NAME)

I will keep this review brief because this superb book with a wealth of highly detailed photographs is the definate history of both cars especially the 956.

There are not that many books out there on this one particular race car,but thakfully this book does the subject real justice,you feel you know the car once you have read this book.

If then you are looking for the definate history on this Le Man classic then look no further THIS IS IT
