Libro: Porsche 936 IL documentazione Di Da corsa classico

Book: Porsche 936


For author Jürgen Barth, this book was an affair of the heart. After all, the racing driver and long-time Porsche employee achieved the greatest success of his career by winning the 24 Hours of Le Mans in a Porsche 936. Together with his co-author Bernd Dobronz, he not only meticulously traces the creation and further development of this open-top sports prototype. He also provides an exciting and informative account of all the factory outings of the Porsche 936 in the World Sportscar Championship races and the 24 Hours of Le Mans, based on the records kept by the engineers at the time. The result is not just a monograph on a successful model in Porsche's racing history that has received far too little attention to date. Rather, the authors have succeeded in telling the stories surrounding the triumphs and tragedies of the time, thus capturing the flair of a special era in motor racing.

The list of the most important people and drivers inextricably linked with the Porsche 936, an overview of all races contested with the Porsche 936 and its related models, as well as precisely researched vehicle histories of the 908/03 Turbo and 936 models round off this unique contemporary document impressively.
