Another fantastic book from Haynes October 31, 2008
This book covers the 956/962 Group C/IMSA/Japan Prototype era Porsches. Excellent photos and storyline about the evolution of one of most famous racing cars of the 80s.
Please do a book on the 935 and 936!!
Well worth the money. Their 917 and F1 books are also top notch, especially the photos.
Great 956 book January 4, 2007
Excellent picturs, and data on the cars. I reccommend this book, although amazon packing was not the best.
Porsche 956/962 book review January 16, 2004
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
As a fan of prototype race cars especially the Porsche 956/962 it's nice to finally see a book on this. Haynes publshing and Peter Morgan do it again with another detailed, thoroughly researched book on Porsches. Great photos with coverage of the IMSA series, Group C and races in Japan. A chassis record and race results are included. I highly recommend this book!!

5 out of 5 found this review helpful
Peter Morgan has done an excellent job of taking what could be a dry and technical subject and making it an easy and enjoyable read. If you like the Porsche 956/962 series of race cars, this book is a must-have, with outstanding pictures and text that helps explain the origins of the cars as well as the fascinating technical background - and all in such a way that even a novice to the world of sports car racing would understand and enjoy. And did I mention that the pictures in this book are outstanding?
