In recent years, however, calls from the slot car scene for a newer or current version of Porsche’s long-running favorite have grown louder.
Well, the time has come—standing before me is the 911 RSR in its 2018 body!
Let’s take a look at the model:
TheArt.Nr . 23890 is the MOBIL Porsche that won the Petit Le Mans in the GTLM class in 2018 with drivers Pilet, Tandy, and Makowiecki. Quick note: The current top GT class, the GTE class of the FIA and ACO, was known as GT2 between 2005 and 2010. IMSA adopted these regulations and refers to this class as GTLM. With a lead of over 11 seconds, Porsche driver Tandy crossed the finish line first in the GTLM class after 10 hours.
In terms of color scheme and graphics, the RSR is in no way inferior to its larger original. All decals, advertising stickers, and sponsor logos are exactly where they should be, and the color gradients of the classic MOBIL livery are spot on.
The body of the modern RSR does differ from the 2010 version in a few details, however. It is more pronounced overall and appears wider. The very wide fenders on the rear axle and the fender flares below the doors are particularly striking. The very tall and delicate rear spoiler is nothing to sneeze at. I wouldn’t be surprised if it becomes a sought-after replacement part someday.
Due to the design, the driver’s seat is naturally a bit flat, but thanks to the 1:124 scale, it’s slightly better sculpted than in the 1:132 version. It also comes with a very nice driver figure featuring a cleanly printed helmet.
I’ll leave the extensive driving tests to my colleagues with club tracks and large home tracks. I’m a carpet racer, meaning I can only test this model on my track at home, which I keep rebuilding.
In my opinion, the car drives very lively and aggressively, though of course that impression can always be misleading due to the car’s appearance. I’m probably also a bit biased, since I’m a Porsche fan.
Overall, there’s nothing to complain about in terms of driving performance; the car is already one of my new all-time favorites.
And with that, another classic is likely
