Description[]
The Porsche 962 was a highly successful endurance prototype sports car designed by Norbert Singer. Introduced in 1984 as an evolution of the previous 956, the 962 complied with both GTP and Group C regulations. Powered by a 2.6L Type 935/76 flat-6 with one or two Kühnle, Kopp & Kausch turbochargers, the 962s were highly competitive in whatever races they entered, usually taking the win or at least a podium position. The 962s were so competitive that they were still winning races ten years after it was introduced, at which point numerous other cars had long obsoleted them; Team Taisan had the honors of taking the last ever competitive victory in a 962 in the All Japan Grand Touring Car Championship (now known as Super GT) in 1994. 91 chassis were produced in-house by Porsche, with additional being produced by other privateers such as Joest or Kremer.
All liveries of this casting thus far (with the exception of the NFT Garage release) have been featured on real 962s that have raced.
An unreleased version of this car was suppose to come out in 1990 for the short planned line of set known as the Light Speeders Challenge.
