Chris Harris Drives The Rothmans-liveried Porsche 962C
Harris monkey goes flat out in a Le Mans winning Porsche 962

This car belongs to the Porsche Museum, its worth millions of dollars, and they let Chris Harris spank it at their Weissach test track. Luckiest journalist alive? We'd say so without a doubt.

Driving the Rothmans-liveried Porsche 962C at Porsche's Weissach race course - I'm at a loss for words how jealous I am of CH right now, but if any journo deserves this opportunity, the right man has been chosen. Check out the latest Drive episode can be seen below.

As a refresher, (thank you Wikipedia) the Porsche 962 (also known as the 962C in its Group C form) was a sports-prototype racing car built by Porsche as a replacement for the 956 and designed mainly to comply with IMSA's GTP regulations, although it would later compete in the European Group C formula as the 956 had. The 962 was introduced at the end of 1984, from which it quickly became successful through private owners while having a remarkably long-lived career, with some examples still proving competitive into the mid-1990s.

The video won't load for me!!!!!! Obviously it's working is for everyone else is there a setting that I can change? Never had this problem before.

EDIT: running internet Explorer if that helps! Work laptop so that's what we use but it has never denied a vid before.

Nevermind, it's becasue some donkey that posted the vid rated it "R" so it's being blocked at work. Will have to watch when I get home today.
