That Coca Cola 962 belongs to a friend of mine.....it will be racing at Rennsport in Sept.

QUOTE(lalee914 @ Jul 27 2015, 05:09 PM)  This is the Bob Aiken Coca Cola 962. As I recall, the 962s were hitting just about 200 MPH at the end of the back straight. I know they were hitting 210 in 1987! I don't think I was there in '85, but I was definately there in '86, '87 & '88 This is me in either 86 or 88  |

My original posts in this thread were supposed to be part of the thread about an old IMSA 914/6 that Glenn Stazak curently owns and races.
http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?sho...6064&st=280 I screwed up and didn't get these photos attached to his thread properly so now this is its own stand alone thread. Brain fade... Here is another shot of the Coca Cola 962 in pit lane after the race. Good looking car. I was thinking about this race again after finding these photos. I kind of recall talking to someone in the 914/6 crew in pit lane after the race. They had a good solid 3rd in class when in the last 15 minutes of the race, they hit some debris on track that knocked off one of the big oil lines to the engine and put them out. They had run enough laps to be classified but finished down the order pretty far. Their finish was not an indicator of their performance. Larry Attached thumbnail(s)
