Beschreibung
IROC's inaugural season was so compelling because the cars were matched Porsche 911Carrera RSRs, each painted a different color with driver/car assignments drawn at random. The cars were specially built by Porsche for this series. These specific IROC cars are now among the most valuable and storied 911s in the collector market.

Über den Autor

Matt Stone (Camarillo, CA), former executive editor of Motor Trend magazine, has been a professional automotive journalist and photographer since 1985. He is the award-winning author and photographer of several books, including Motorbooks’ best-selling 365 Cars You Must Drive, McQueen’s Machines, McQueen’s Motorcycles, Hot Rod Empire, and The IROC Porsches. He is the co-author, with Preston Lerner of Winning: The Racing Life of Paul Newman and History’s Greatest Automotive Mysteries, Myths, and Rumors Revealed.

George Follmer is a retired American racing driver. Born January 27, 1934, Follmer is known primarily as a sports car racer, but his portfolio of accomplishments is much larger than that. He's an SCCA Can-Am champion (1972) and a two-time SCCA Trans-Am series champ (1972, 1976). Follmer raced in Formula 1 and at the 24 Hours of Le Mans. He competed in the Indianapolis 500 five times, and twice competed in the International Race of Champions (IROC). Follmer equally enjoyed a fruitful NASCAR racing career, with one win in that series. Known as a versatile all-rounder, Follmer's reputation as a fast yet smooth charger earned him success in nearly any type of car or series in which he competed.
