The Porsche 962 was created in the prime of its predecessor, the very successful Porsche 956, to comply with the new IMSA rules that came out in 1983. The USA was an important market for Porsche, so work on the new sports car had already begun in October 1983. In the Porsche 962 the front axle was moved forward a few centimetres to meet IMSA requirements. Otherwise the 962 differed little from its predecessor. The 962 was used in both the USA and in Europe, where it was suitably equipped for Group C and was given the letter C. The Porsche 962 and 962 C were two of the most successful racing cars in history, offering according to equipment, 640 to 680 bhp and a speed of 380 km/h. |
