Sauber-Mercedes C9

==Description==
The Sauber C9 is a Group C prototype endurance racing car designed by Peter Sauber, Heini Mader and Leo Ress which competed in the World Sportscar Championship from 1987 to 1990, competing in Class C1. Replacing the previous C8, the C9 was powered by a 5.0L twin-turbocharged V8 and was highly successful in the series. The car most notably won the 1989 Teams', Constructors' and Drivers' Championships in the World Sportscar Championship, with Jean-Louis Schlesser and Jochen Mass at the wheel. Six chassis were produced.
The casting features a removable engine cover. The initial livery of the casting replicates that of C9 #63 which won the 1989 24 Hours of Le Mans, the second replicates the #61 AEG Olympia "Circuit Board" car which took part in the 1988 World Sportscar Championship and the third replicates the "presentation specification" #61 car.
