Porsche 956
One of the cars I have a huge admiration for is the mighty 956.
A friend of mine, Mario Silva, worked at the Weissach factory during the early eighties and was given these photos I just scanned. They are "official" photos from Porsche and quite rare, I believe. I've never seen these photos on the net. -   In case you're interested, we have a 956 actively competing in South Africa. I have some info up here - http://www.pts106.com/Porsche%20956.htm Cheers, Pierre. |

The second of those official photos looks like the 956's race debut- Silverstone 1982, drivers Jacky Ickx and Derek Bell.
Thanks for sharing them with us |

Is it the one that was entered by Brunn Racing in the Historic Group C races, or is it another one? see here for the Brunn Racing car http://www.racecar.co.uk/brunn/gallery/6.htm If I'm not too much mistaken, that's Porsche 956-108. see the 962 Registry: http://www.962.com/registry/956_962/956-108/index.htm Last edited by gert; 3 May 2004 at 22:27. |
