1989 Porsche 962C: Old are the rags...

Anonim

Old? The Porsche 962 was the fastest car driver Andrew Jordan has ever driven. Living proof that "the rags are old"…

This Porsche 962, belonging to the C group and introduced 30 years ago, continues to amaze even the most experienced drivers. Andrew Jordan was one of them: champion of the BTCC (British Touring Car Championship) in 2013, reveals that this model produced in Stuttgart was the fastest car he has ever had the opportunity to drive.

All the power of the Porsche 962 comes from a flat-six engine with 770hp, “too powerful” for a chassis with 960kg (approximately). This is where this Porsche's greatest asset comes in: the rear wing. Literally stuck to the ground, this Porsche devoured straights and curves at a speed as great as the length of its sporting record.
