Porsche 962/88 – The Autobiography of 962 011 (Limited Edition)
Serge Vanbockryck
- Signed by legendary Porsche engineer Norbert Singer and author Serge Vanbockryck, and limited to only 50 copies.
- Genesis of chassis 962 011 ahead of the 1989 season, developed by the Porsche factory in conjunction with the Joest Racing team.
- A great first season for 962 011: Bob Wollek won the ADAC Supercup, Germany’s high-quality national sportscar championship, and with Frank Jelinski scored the Porsche 956/962’s final and 39th world championship victory, vanquishing the dominant Sauber-Mercedes at Dijon.
- Four more seasons criss-crossing the Atlantic, 1990–93, to race mainly in the IMSA Championship in America and the Interserie in Europe, all explained in detail.
- The car’s top drivers receive in-depth profiles: Bob Wollek, Frank Jelinski, John Winter, Oscar Larrauri, Henri Pescarolo, Hurley Haywood, Jean-Louis Ricci, Danny Sullivan, Gianpiero Moretti, Manuel Reuter, Bernd Schneider, John Paul Jr and Chip Robinson.
- Day-to-day history of chassis 962 011 outlined in exhaustive technical detail, recording every test and every race with all available data, from fuel consumption figures to pitstop times.
- Artwork: exclusive artwork depicts chassis 962 011 as it evolved over its five active seasons.
- The car today: chassis 962 011 is shown in a special studio photoshoot and in action photos of its outings with various owner-drivers in recent years.
Successor to the all-conquering 956, the 962 extended Porsche’s tally of Le Mans wins and major sportscar titles. This car, 962 011, was the most successful of them all, winning nine races during its five years of top-level competition in Europe, America and Japan.
This book tells the definitive story of the car from its inception ahead of the 1989 season, through its evolution during its racing career, and ends with a spectacular studio shoot of the car as it is today.
The Limited Edition is signed by the author and Porsche engineer Norbert Singer. It is hand-bound in white leather and carries an embossed reproduction of the chassis number on the front, and presented in a grey cloth slipcase.
