Cool video of testing / setting up two Porsche 962's with Tiff Needell and Derek Bell from back in the mid '80s. Check out the 944's and 928's in the back ground!
Cool timing. I was just reading March 08 Road and Track. The flashback page has the story of the Stock Car versus the 962 that took place 20 years ago.

major flashback for me! i remember reading that exact mag article; i was sitting in class at Univ of PA, ignoring the proffessor, and reading about the top speed rumble between the 962 and the stock car (a monte carlo, if my memory serves?). its been 20 years; didnt the monte break 240+ mph, or something ridiculous like that???
Great video. I particularly like how Tiff spins out then basically states that the reason was because the car wasn't set up properly. He intends to carry the same speed through the corner once the engineers get it fine tuned. I'll have to remember that excuse.
