Stig drives the Rothmans 962
The algorithm must've seen Yellowperils thread about the magazine covers. This showed up front and center on my feed today.

Get off my lawn!

It looks like Wayne needs another 962 to add to his collection!
I just wonder what the sale price will be. Since I have to ask..... Cool toy.

Wow...
 1:09 an hour to drive this exclusively around 1:12 doddington it's pretty epic privilege 1:15 and it's just such a pivotal part of the 1:18 1980s Group C Racing scene which 1:20 arguably the greatest era of Motorsport 1:24 of all time 1:25 ever I can't help but agree.

Race cars used to be beautiful as well as fast.

The now-defunct World of Speed had a Porsche exhibit for a while and had a couple of 962's in it. I was really surprised how small they seem in person and just how low they really are. They are a pure work of art to look at.
