Carrera Digital 124 Ford GT Race Car " No. 66"

Item No. 23893

In the test report for item no. 23892, I already pointed out that the Ford GT Race Car No. 66 actually has a different name (Ford GT Ecoboost 3.5L Turbo V6 "Team FORD Chip Ganassi USA") and what kind of team it is (CHIP GANASSI RACING).

The number 66 car in question was driven by the English GANASSI team in 2019. The car, in this livery, participated in the 2019 24 Hours of Le Mans. The drivers were Stefan MÜCKE, Olivier PLA, and Billy JOHNSON. The GT finished seventh in the LM GTE Pro class, just behind the aforementioned number 69.

The light blue Ford sported a livery reminiscent of the Ford GT40 shared by 1966 Le Mans 24 Hours winners Bruce McLaren and Chris Amon. The No. 69 ECOBOOST qualified 37th with a time of 3:49.511, achieved by Stefan Mücke in the third lap. Although the No. 66 Ford GT struggled to find the right pace early in the race, the driver and mechanics pulled together, and the car crossed the finish line in 25th place overall and seventh in the LM GTE-Pro class.

A few more words about the FORD GT in general:
The Ford GT marked the end of an era for Ford Performance Motorsports when it crossed the finish line for the last time in December 2019 at the ROAD ALTANTA race track in Georgia, USA. Racing has been a core part of Ford's history since the company was founded over 100 years ago, when Henry Ford's victories on the track attracted investors. But this closes only one chapter in Ford's ongoing assault on the racing record books. It will be interesting to see what Ford does next. The company plans to focus its motorsport efforts on hybrid and electric vehicles, among other areas.

As the standard-bearer of Ford's international racing efforts over the past four years, the GT earned its place in the history books in 2016 when it won the 24 Hours of Le Mans in France in its first outing—exactly 50 years after its GT40 ancestor shocked the racing world by beating Ferrari for the overall victory in the 1966 race. The story is legendary, most recently captured in the 2020 film "Le Mans 66: Against All Odds."

Since 2016, the mid-engined, carbon-fiber GT—the most advanced sports car ever to bear the famous FORD badge—has raced around the globe in the IMSA Weathertech and Endurance World Championships. It has won 19 races and taken home the prestigious IMSA Manufacturers' Championship in 2018. It has also helped sell 1,350 production GTs for princely sums starting at $500,000 to enthusiasts and collectors eager to own a piece of history.

The end of the Ford GT racing program also coincides with the end of the production car program. All 1,350 Ford GTs, manufactured by the Multimatic racing shop outside Toronto, have already been allocated. The last GT will roll off the assembly line in 2022—and enter the history books.

Carrera Digital 132 Ford GT Race Car " No 66"

Item No. 30913

It would be hard to capture the origin and purpose of the car more clearly in the name.
The 132 model, featuring the classic Ford Motorcraft livery, was released for the 50th anniversary of IMSA. It was fielded by the Chip Ganassi Racing Team, for example, at the 2019 Daytona 24 Hours. The car, competing in the GTLM class there, finished 27th in the race – a subsequent time penalty resulted in 28th place in the final standings.

The white base color with the bright red decals is clearly visible on the track and can also be easily distinguished from other vehicles in operation. The printing and decals are clean and true to the original. I couldn't find any defects in the workmanship or the technical components. The tires are printed with "Carrera" for obvious reasons—if that bothers you, you could turn them over and then have neutral black tires.

The massive rear diffuser is, of course, only suitable for banked turns to a very limited extent, but who actually uses a banked turn 1 on their track? Otherwise, the handling is excellent, and the car can be driven quickly. There's nothing to stop you from racing slot cars with other GT cars from the D132 series. When choosing a car, aesthetic and brand-specific considerations certainly always play a role – for me, it could be this Ford RaceCar.

Item No. 30928

Apple, now a world-famous company, was founded in a California garage in 1976. The path to its current success wasn't always linear, but by 1980, the company was definitely on the rise. Back then, a computer was still an exotic device for nerds and, increasingly, gamers, but far from a common household item. The Apple II was a powerful powerhouse; competitors like the Commodore 64, which is very well-known in this country, only came onto the market later.
According to legend, Apple co-founder Steve Jobs was a big fan of the German design school and privately drove a Porsche 356, among other cars. When this needed repairs, he came into contact with racing driver Bob Garretson and the Dick Barbour Racing Team, which was based very close to Cupertino.
As a result of this acquaintance, the decision was made for Apple to act as the main sponsor for one of the team's vehicles.

No sooner said than done: The logo, still very colorful at the time, wrapped the white body, creating an extremely striking design that is still recognizable today. The car itself only raced a few times with this livery, but in later years at least one replica was made.

Carrera chose the 1980 Sebring 12 Hours as the model for the latest version of the 1:32 scale model. This model differs in the starting number and some other details (e.g., the lettering on the rear wheel arches) from the version released as a slot car by a Spanish competitor many years ago. The most obvious difference is the color of the rear rims.

Technically, everything remains the same; the model is available in both analog and digital versions and is powered by the standard E200 engine, as before. The handling can be adjusted to your own preferences using the two chassis magnets. Overall, the car is one of the faster and more controllable models.

Item No. 30914

The FFF1 Racing Team was born in 2014 from the merger of the Chinese company Fu Songyang's FFF Automobile China and Italian racing driver Andrea Caldarelli. A successful partnership, victorious since its first appearance in Asia in 2014. One of its greatest achievements was the 2016 season, when Lamborghini included the FFF Racing Team in the official Squadra Corse program, thanks in part to a prestigious partnership with Swiss watchmaker Roger Dubuis, both in Europe, in the GT Open and GT3 Le Mans Cup, and in Asia as the series' reference team.

The car in front of me is the HURACAN as used by FFF in the 2019 racing season. The car differs from the original in one significant aspect, namely the modified front end (air intake) and the hood scoop. The CARRERA model still represents the first stage of the Lambo GT3. Nevertheless, the car's livery is perfectly executed. If you weren't aware of the modified bodywork, you wouldn't notice a thing.

ACM's ORANGE1 FFF Racing Team celebrated a breathtaking and sensational season in its 2019 Blancpain GT Series debut. The Chinese squad took the risk of competing in every championship and series and officially became the first team to achieve a perfect "Triple Crown" in the series' history. Following success in the World Challenge Europe in its first Sprint Cup year, ORANGE1 FFF Racing was crowned champion in the driver and team standings in the Blancpain GT Series and the Endurance Cup.

Retro design is still in. It's perhaps not quite as obvious as with the first two 1:24 models (23885 and 23886), but this model also cites a model from decades past: white, red, and blue, the colors of the Brumos Racing Team. They also suit the modern 911 RSR extremely well. Since this is now the fifth design variant of this 1:32 scale model, the 911 RSR could quite easily compete in a one-make cup.

In any case, the driving performance leaves little to be desired, and since the model is wide and flat, the roadholding is also excellent.

This Lambo also differs from the original, specifically in the modified front end and the hood scoop. The CARRERA model represents the early stage of the Lamborghini Huracan GT3. The print is still excellent.
To mark the fiftieth anniversary of the moon landing in July 1969, the American MAGNUS RACING racing team painted its Lamborghini Huracan GT3 EVO in the design of the Saturn V launch vehicle of the time. In addition, the racing team swapped its regular starting number 44 for the number 11 for a one-time appearance. The team even received permission to race with a black number plate. The car competed on July 20, 2019, with drivers John Potter and Andy Lally in the IMSA SportsCar Championship at the Lime Rock Park race track in Connecticut, USA. The Lambo finished 16th…

Carrera DIGITAL 132 Ford Mustang GTY No. 17
Carrera Digital 132 Ford Mustang GTY " No 17"

Item No. 30939

The American sports car dream, the Mustang a legend on four wheels.
Just like in real life, the Mustang, in the 132 Carrera slot car version, is no lightweight. Depending on the configuration, with or without a magnet, it weighs between 112 and 115 grams on the uncalibrated kitchen scale.
The No. 17 only has the body spoiler, not the powerful one of the No. 54, but I think that can be modified.

A number of screws were used on the underside of the body, and they certainly weigh a bit more than glued plastic. The magnet can be removed without disassembling the motor or the rear axles – though you should be careful. The plastic clip that holds the magnet in place is quite fragile… if you want to drive magnet-free permanently, you might want to take a more blunt approach. Use a very narrow watchmaker's tool to pry it off, pull it out from the side, tilt it, and remove it – the same thing applies to the magnet, in essence.

The model is based on the Mustang VI GT Fastback and is a homage to models that ran in the Trans Am series.
I haven't been able to find a real-life model for No. 17. The design certainly has a racing feel, but except for the very wide roof stripe, it's more understated than No. 54. Both cars look good side by side and in racing. I think we'll see a few more horses racing in the coming years.

Carrera has equipped the Mustang with tires with rounded edges. There's only a small cast edge on the inside, which can easily be driven or sanded down.
In terms of paintwork and decals, the vehicle is well-made and flawless. Personally, I would add a little more decals or stripes to the roof, just a touch.
I particularly like the rear light - very visible on the track, although the wide, white stripe is also easy to see.

Even though there's no GTY series in the real world, I can certainly imagine it appearing on the Carrera track in the future – and "normal" GTs are certainly welcome to compete. The Mustang drives smoothly and quickly; maybe not a winner, but it certainly deserves a podium finish.

Item No. 23899

Start number 382

…is there even a race with so many participants?

Ferrari's answer to the Porsche 917 appears in a new version in the 2020 Carrera Digital 124 program. The base color is red—well, there aren't many alternatives anyway—the rear cover is white, as is the starting number circle on the hood. Add to that yellow stickers and large yellow starting numbers, a design that's certainly worth seeing and distinguishable from other Ferrari 512Ss.
But back to the race – where did the original car run?

Trieste-Opicina 1970 is a reference on the pit lane. A quick Google search and I found a railway line of the same name – it's an old funicular/cog railway with a track length of about 5 km, which has some significant climbs. Could this be a reference to a hill climb? Bingo, it was a race that took place between 1911 and 1971. It was also called "Monza with a climb" because of the curves, climbs, and high speeds. What isn't a problem in Monaco to this day – the closure of a busy route for an entire weekend – not only caused danger but also led to the end of the race in 1971. On the upside, there is a vintage car tour of the same name, which has been held with historic vehicles since 1981. The prototype of the Carrera model was driven by Giampiero Moretti, and the placing in this hill climb – a rather atypical race for the Ferrari 512S – was a complete success for Ferrari: 1st place.

The model shows no defects in either the paint or the decals. The handling is familiar, with most drivers – as in the 1:1 original – slightly lagging behind the Porsche 917s, but certainly fast and easy to control, though it's all a matter of taste and the driver's skill at the controls ;-)
124 enthusiasts will probably have to wait a long time for the modified version, which was also able to beat the original Porsche 917.


Until then

PS It's always worth delving into previous years' models, expanding your research, and releasing such a great model. Chapeau.

The American sports car dream, the Mustang a legend on four wheels.
Just like in real life, the Mustang in the 132 Carrera slot car version is no lightweight. Depending on the configuration, with or without spoiler or with or without magnet, it weighs between 113 and 118 grams on the uncalibrated kitchen scale.

A number of screws were used on the underside of the body, and they certainly weigh a bit more than glued plastic. The magnet can be removed without disassembling the motor or the rear axles – though you should be careful. The plastic clip that holds the magnet in place is quite fragile – if you want to drive magnet-free permanently, you might want to take a more blunt approach. Use a very narrow watchmaker's tool to pry it off, pull it out from the side, tilt it, and remove it... the same thing applies to the magnet, so to speak.

The model is based on the Mustang VI GT Fastback
To mark its 50th anniversary, Ford released a special edition of the Mustang in 2014, and a racing-spec GT with the same design was introduced for the Supercars series.
For the Carrera D132 model, this is a fitting design inspiration for the current "55" model – 2019 marked the 55th anniversary – the galloping horse also found its way onto the side of the Carrera model. Added to that is a bold spoiler and a powerful diffuser with a side design accent. The red-accented rims are a real eye-catcher.

Carrera has equipped the Mustang with tires with rounded edges. There's only a small cast edge on the inside, which can easily be driven or sanded down.
The paintwork and decals on the vehicle are well-made and flawless. I particularly like the rear lights—they're very visible on the track.

In the summer of 2017, Mercedes announced that it would withdraw from the DTM at the end of the 2018 season. During this farewell tour, they pulled out all the stops, and Gary Paffett clinched his second DTM championship title after 2005.

After the model was released last year in the smaller 1:32 scale, the 1:24 version now follows, as the 8th design variant of this model.

Naturally, the paintwork, printing, and details come across even better on a larger scale; just let Mike's pictures have an impact on you.
Logically, nothing has changed in the chassis construction or the weight, so the handling holds no surprises.

All in all, the model is a nice and useful addition to the 1:24 DTM fleet.

Carrera Digital 132 Ford Capri RS 3100 " DRM 1975"

Item No. 30927

The unexpected often happens – after a hiatus of several years, another design variant of the Ford Capri RS 3100 is now appearing. The original vehicle was driven by Werner Schommers in the 1975 season of the German Racing Championship (DRM). He achieved 9th place overall and repeated this result the following year, albeit with a Ford Escort.

The design, while simple in my opinion, is still attractive and distinctive on the track. The technical construction remains unchanged, meaning the front axle still has independent suspension, and the familiar E200 engine is used. This allows the model to cruise quickly around the track, but it doesn't quite reach the lap times of current GT3 or DTM cars. Nevertheless, this model will surely find its way to many DRM fans.

Item No. 23902


The car was owned by Niki Lauda; he renounced the factory car to which he was entitled and used his own white and signal-red car in the 1979 ProCar season, which he won convincingly.
In the Procar series – which was held as part of the Formula 1 events of the time – the five fastest Formula 1 drivers were eligible to start. They received factory cars and competed against a maximum of 19 other drivers in identical vehicles.

Lauda allegedly had a "better car" at his disposal, but he denied this and pointed to good sets of tires. A crucial criterion not only in model racing.
The BMW M1 was in reality what it is on the Carrera track, a fast and beautiful vehicle, but one that is actually only driven in its own class.

Personally, I think the new design in the Carrera portfolio is very well implemented... Sure, the Marlboro stickers are missing – as they were in the originals at some races – but some Carrera drivers probably already have them sitting in their drawers, waiting to be used. Tobacco advertising is not only banned on toys, but, in fact, is only permitted in very limited areas.

The model's handling is familiar—I can easily adjust the power to the specified levels on the small test track. I couldn't detect any manufacturing defects in the decals, paint, etc.

I'm excited about this modern classic and hope for more large-scale M1s.

Item No. 23890



It's finally here!

Exactly ten years ago, Carrera introduced the Porsche 911 GT3 RSR into its lineup. Since then, the car has been a perennial favorite in the range. This was likely due not only to the "Porsche 911" aura, but primarily to the car's outstanding performance, which, even after ten years, was no match for more modern vehicles. Furthermore, the car competed in so many different series that the car's visual appeal made it possible to create a truly beautiful and diverse model lineup over the years.

In recent years, however, there has been an increasing number of voices from the slot car scene calling for a newer or more up-to-date version of Porsche's long-running car.
Well, the time has come, in front of me is the 911 RSR in the 2018 body!

Let’s get to the model:


Item number 23890 is the MOBIL Porsche that won the 2018 Petit Le Mans GTLM class with drivers Pilet, Tandy, and Makowiecki. A quick note: The current top GT class, the FIA ​​and ACO GTE class, was called GT2 between 2005 and 2010. IMSA adopted these regulations and renamed this class GTLM. With a lead of over 11 seconds, Porsche driver Tandy crossed the finish line first in the GTLM after 10 hours.
In terms of color scheme and paint scheme, the RSR is in no way inferior to its full-size original. All decals, advertising stickers, and sponsors are where they should be, and the color gradients of the classic MOBIL livery are spot on.

The body of the modern RSR differs from the 2010 version in several details. It is more expansive overall and visually wider. The very wide fenders on the rear axle and the sill extensions below the doors are striking. Not to be underestimated is the very tall and delicate rear spoiler. I wouldn't be surprised if it becomes a sought-after spare part one day.
The driver insert is, of course, a bit flat due to its design, but thanks to the 124 scale, it's somewhat better formed than in 132. There's also a very nice driver figure with a neatly printed helmet.

I'll leave the extended test runs to my colleagues with club tracks and large home tracks. I'm a carpet-slider, meaning I can only test the thing on my constantly rebuilt track at home.

In my opinion, the car drives very briskly and aggressively, although this impression can, of course, be deceiving due to the car's looks. I'm probably a bit biased, too, as I'm a Porsche fan.
Overall, there's nothing to complain about in terms of performance; the car is already one of my new all-time favorites.

And this should ensure another classic for the Carrera range for the coming years!

Item No. 23893


The new item number 23892 is listed in the catalog as Ford GT Race Car No. 69.
The correct name would be GT Ford Ecoboost 3.5L Turbo V6 “Team FORD Chip Ganassi USA”.
CHIP GANASSI RACING is an American racing team based in Concord, North Carolina.
It was founded by the eponymous racing driver Chip Ganassi, who entered the Champ Car series in 1981 and participated in the Indianapolis 500-mile race five times. After ending his career due to injury, he bought into the Patrick team in 1988. A few years later, he founded his own racing team, with which he competes in NASCAR, the Indy Racing League, and the Champ Car series.

By the way, there are two GANASSI teams: Team USA and Team UK (the island division).
The #69 Ford belongs to the USA team and competed in the 2019 Le Mans 24 Hours. The drivers were Ryan Briscoe, Scott Dixon, and Richard Westbrook. This car's livery was inspired by the design of the Ford GT40, which finished second in the 1966 Le Mans 24 Hours, the American brand's hat-trick. I like the red stripes against the very subtle light blue paint scheme.

Ryan Briscoe qualified the No. 69 Ford GT in 38th place with a time of 3:49.546. Aside from a spin for Richard Westbrook in the Dunlop chicane, the race ran smoothly, finishing 24th overall and sixth in the LM GTE Pro class. He finished one place ahead of his fellow English driver, the No. 66 car, which CARRERA also includes this year.


Regarding the model's handling, I refer you to the reviews of previous versions: The Ford drives really well, but compared to the competition, it's a bit too heavy to be truly competitive. However, the body offers plenty of opportunities to save some weight. And when competing against other GTs, it doesn't matter anyway.

Item No. 30943


Consequently, Carrera has now added a new feature to the 132 digital system. The track is even safer, as ambulances are now also available. In addition to the general security duties they share with safety cars and police cars, you could also try a race with the other three-axle vehicles.
The ambulance features a very sober design, with a white base color and red lettering; the design is modern and appealing. The highlight is certainly the included nurse figure, with a heart in the right place. Who wouldn't want a little crash in there? Like all three-axle vehicles, the ambulance is fun to drive, but challenging.
The sounds can be configured using the vehicle ID (button-vehicle assignment). From subtle honking, to German and American special signals, to the wailing of the injured person in the vehicle… every time you press a switch—turnout, pit entrance, or just for fun—you can hear it subtly but recognizably.
The axles (only the last one is driven) run smoothly, as does the rest of the workmanship and without defects.

Carrera Digital 132 Dodge Charger Daytona " No 42"

Item No. 30941

I'm always fascinated by the design versions of the old NASCAR muscle cars that Slottus pulls out of his drawer. I personally believe that he has a photo album in his office of every picture of the Dodge and Plymouth that has ever appeared anywhere, and he's now working through them piece by piece. And the motto is: the more colorful the car, the better. Although cars back then were colorful anyway, nothing compared to the white, black, and silver uniformity that dominates our streets these days. If your car is any color other than the three mentioned, you might as well put on a Guy Fawkes mask.

But back to the current Wingcar with item number 30941. What do we have here?
Finally a Dodge Charger Daytona again!
I love the wingmen! Due to the size of the cars, they're almost at the level of a 124cc, easy to handle at all times. And they're also in the wonderful purple-yellow color scheme. And it's extremely well executed; the car is 99% true to the original (except for a few promotional decals, which were probably altered due to the usual licensing restrictions). Purple-yellow was the color scheme the Daytona driver used on NASCAR racetracks with almost all of his cars. If you google the name on the driver's door, you'll find the following Wikipedia entry:
Marty Robbins (born 1925 in Arizona, died 1982 in Nashville, Tennessee) was an American country singer and songwriter. In his 30-year career, he garnered numerous hits in both the country and pop music scenes…

What is only mentioned in passing in the Wikipedia entry, however, is a much more interesting aspect of Marty for us racing fans.
The man loved racing. And since his success in the music industry gave him the means, he occasionally competed in NASCAR races. Every year, he tries to compete in events at the major racetracks (Talladega Superspeedway, Daytona International Speedway) and, when time permits, on the smaller pure tracks. His cars were built and maintained by NASCAR legend Cotton Owens.

In 35 NASCAR races, he achieved six top-ten finishes. If you want to know more about him, google "Marty Robbins" and "NASCAR"; you'll find a lot online. You'll also find out what other race cars he drove.

A little gimmick on the side: in the movie “Hell On Wheels” (which you can also find in our film list in the forum), Robbins plays himself.

Have fun with the car!

Item No. 30932


The US-based Chevrolet company has been producing the Camaro since 1966, but discontinued production of the fourth generation in 2002 and resumed with the fifth generation in 2009. The sixth generation has been in production since 2015 and received a facelift in 2018. Depending on the engine and fine-tuning, the Camaro is classified as a pony car (sports car) or a muscle car. The "2007" designation for the Carrera Camaro refers to the concept car built before the new series began. At that time, a purple and an orange version were launched in the D132 range.
After the Sheriff version (with special signaling system on the roof and tinted windows) was launched in 2016, the PaceCar variant will now be released in 2020.

The orange warning light can be switched on and off using the button on the handlebar (light, flashing light, both at the same time or everything off) - on the track, the PaceCar cuts a fine figure - especially in conjunction with other modern or classic US cars.

The handling – well, it's not a race car – neither particularly low nor particularly wide – but that's not what it's supposed to be. As a pace car in the appropriate operating mode, it's quite fun and adds a nice gaming element. I haven't found any manufacturing defects, and the livery looks authentic, although I haven't been able to find a real-life model.

Carrera Digital 124 Ford Capri Zakspeed Turbo " Mampe"

Item No. 23895

Even though I find it the most attractive Turbo Capri in terms of design and colors, I initially had no idea what MAMPE was. Nothing could be easier these days... just google it, and you'll usually get more information than you actually wanted. MAMPE has been producing a wide variety of alcoholic beverages for over a hundred years, but—except through racing sponsorship—it has never achieved much recognition outside of Berlin.

Half and half means that the alcoholic beverage from MAMPE consists of 160 different herbs, half of which is alcohol, and the other half of bitter oranges. Perhaps there will be an opportunity to try it sometime ;-)

Between 1977 and 1979, Mampe AG sponsored the Mampe-Ford-Zakspeed team.
Hans Heyer, driving a black and yellow Ford Capri Turbo, achieved multiple race victories and won the German Championship three times. The slot car driver's pink suit wasn't the product of a designer's idea; Hans Heyer actually drove in a pink jumpsuit... he just swapped the floppy hat for a helmet.

The 124 series car from Carrera drives well, as expected (width + length + low center of gravity, what more could you want). I have no complaints about the workmanship, the noticeable tolerances, or the paintwork. The adjustability via the control unit is good; 1-2 = full throttle in the pit lane and on the inside of Turn 1 is possible... Even with the magnets, the top corners require a certain amount of sensitivity.

"We already know those," is probably what many people asked when they discovered these two models in the 2020 catalog. The term "reissue" was also frequently mentioned at the club meeting at the Toy Fair. However, these are not true reissues; the models from 2003 (Evolution Item Nos. 25717 and 25719) and 2004 (Pro-X Item Nos. 30209 and 30212) had the same design, but also featured the massive wings at the front and rear.

The chassis has been around since 2010 and is used again in these new models. The combined weight of both vehicles is just over 110 grams, resulting in a solid roadholding and handling. More than ever, it's essential to develop a smooth and predictive driving style, enabling lap-long duels on equal terms.

Carrera Digital 124 Ford GT 40 Mk II " No 4"

Item No. 23896


It's been some time since the last Ford GT Mark II was released, but the car continues to enjoy undiminished popularity among drivers of historic GT cars. CARRERA is responding to this demand by adding the Ford with chassis number 1032 to its lineup this year.

By 1966, Carroll Shelby and Holman & Moody (a US race car manufacturer) were already heavily involved in the "Le Mans: Ford vs. Ferrari" project, and up until then, everything was going quite well. The 7-liter Fords dominated the 24 Hours of Le Mans, finishing first through third in arguably the most famous period in Ford's racing history. Henry Ford's anger at not being able to buy the Ferrari brand was appeased. The background to the story is well known: Ford wanted to buy Ferrari to reposition itself in motorsports, as the three major American automakers – Ford, General Motors, and Chrysler – had decided to stop motorsports in the late 1950s, but this decision was torpedoed by Chrysler's involvement in NASCAR. The talks between Ford and Ferrari were already well advanced. But ultimately, they ended up arguing over a "small matter": Enzo Ferrari was determined to manage Ford's motorsports activities alone, without any say, while Henry Ford II, in turn, refused to let Enzo Ferrari dictate anything to him. The classic problem of two alpha males. The talks ended inconclusively; Henry Ford II was furious and declared war on Ferrari.
In fact, the GT40s won Le Mans four times in a row. The GT40's legacy is so enduring that in 2005, Ford built the Ford GT, which was developed from the Ford GT Concept Car introduced in 2002—a modern interpretation of the original race car. The successor to the 2005 GT was the new GT in 2016, which we also know from the current Carrera lineup.


But back to the MK II: This car, chassis number 1032, is one of eight MK IIs. It was completed on November 5, 1965, along with P/1031, by Ford Advanced Vehicles in Slough, England. P/1031 is the dark blue GT40 with the yellow front end (not yet available in the Carrera range). It was then delivered to Shelby American in California, where it was completed in MK II configuration, including the 427 engine with twin four-barrel carburetors and a four-speed transaxle. Painted white with a black nose, it was then driven by Walter "Walt" Hansgen and Mark Donohue as one of two Shelbys in the 1966 12 Hours of Sebring, where it finished second.

After returning to California and further testing and development, it was painted bronze with a green front end and entered in the 1966 24 Hours of Le Mans. The No. 4 drivers were Paul Hawkins and Mark Donohue. During this race, Dan Gurney, driving another MK II, set a new Le Mans lap record of 142.98 mph.
By the way, the No. 4 retired after just 12 laps with differential damage.


Ford had ended an era at Le Mans. Ferrari would never again achieve an overall victory in the 24-hour race.

And another interesting detail about chassis number 1032:
Upon returning to the United States, this No. 4 MK II was painted to look like the Le Mans winner and then exhibited throughout the country by the Ford Motor Company.

Item No. 30944


Richard Brickhouse and his only NASCAR victory

The Plymouth Superbird is now a classic in the CARRERA range. The first NASCAR models were delivered in 2003.
However, the vehicle is still selling very well in the homeland of oval track racing, which is why CARRERA has added a few models to its new product range after a few years.

The red and gold one is a Plymouth Superbird, based on a real car that ran in the 1979 DAYTONA 500. Driver was Richard Brickhouse.
But who was Richard? I've delved into his story a bit for this club report, as the story of his only NASCAR victory is more interesting than the car he drove the year after his victory.

Richard Brickhouse was born on October 27, 1939, in Rocky Point, North Carolina. He drove in just 35 NASCAR races, including 13 top-ten finishes, including one victory. He is best known for winning the first Talladega 500, which took place on September 14, 1969. Talladega Superspeedway is now the largest racetrack on the NASCAR calendar, hosting two races each year.

Brickhouse was a second-row driver who was only able to win the 1969 race because the stars of the scene at the time did not compete in the race:
The size of the track and the 33-degree banked tires, coupled with hot temperatures and an abrasive surface, led to tire failure in practice, often after just a few laps. The Professional Drivers Association (PDA), led by Richard Petty, asked Bill France Sr. (Big Bill), the legendary founder and manager of the NASCAR series, to postpone the race until Goodyear or Firestone could guarantee that the tires would withstand the stresses. Big Bill refused; his solution was simply not to go as fast (max 185 mph / 298 km/h)! This wasn't an option for many racers, as in their opinion, it had nothing to do with "racing."
Led by "The King" Richard Petty (who had shredded three of the four Firestone tires on his car during qualifying), the majority of the top drivers simply went on strike! The boycott didn't sit well with Big Bill, who was determined to hold/host the race no matter what. With only one top driver (Bobby Isaac) and primarily second-tier drivers like eventual winner Richard Brickhouse, the race ultimately took place. Brickhouse, a relative newcomer to the scene, resigned from his PDA membership to be able to drive. It was his only NASCAR victory; he only drove in 38 more NASCAR races in his career, from 1968 until his retirement in 1982. Incidentally, he held the Guinness World Record for the fastest time on a closed course for many years.

The 1969 driver boycott was, incidentally, attributed to the downfall of the Professional Drivers Association (PDA), which had only recently been founded under the leadership of Richard Petty. The organization from which the drivers hoped for the following improvements was higher prize money, better insurance coverage, the introduction of a pension fund for the drivers, and washing facilities in the paddock.

Item No. 30916

We've had to wait long enough for the new racing version of the Porsche 911. The last design variants up to and including 2018 were generally just racing cars with a modern or current design, but with the body of the old Porsche 911 GT3 RSR from 2007.
In 2019, the time had finally come: Carrera launched the Porsche 911 RSR model 991. Despite its advanced age, the old GT3 was still a firm favorite with buyers, which was reflected in corresponding sales figures. This was primarily due to its handling; it could easily keep up with even ten-year-old designs.

The new 991 hasn't disappointed this trust. The chassis is based on proven principles: the car has a short rim and wide axles. At 108 grams, its weight is in line with its competitors.
The latest model, released in 2020, is the black and yellow Porsche of the Lohne-based Project 1 Motorsport team. The model is based on the 2018 World Championship car. With this car, the Project 1 racing team secured the GTE-AM class championship in its debut season in the FIA ​​WEC Endurance Championship.

The car is faithfully reproduced; there are quite a few links to the vehicle online, including some nice racing videos. The team's website is also highly recommended: https://project-1.de/

Item No. 30926

The new 1:32 Turbo Capri from the Zakspeed team looks great on the track with its white base color, making it easily recognizable and distinguishable even in difficult lighting conditions. The model's proportions are well realized and it's known for its good handling. The printing is clean and largely true to the original. Unfortunately, a production error crept in with the side stripes; the colors are reversed.

Lili Reisenbichler, the female racing legend of the 1970s, competed in various races with a BMW M1, Ford Escort RS, NSU 1000, Renault R5 Alpine, and Ford Capri. Her greatest success was first place in the touring car class of the 1000 km race at the Nürburgring in 1980, driving a Ford Escort RS 2000.

In addition to the Turbo Capris driven by Klaus Ludwig and Klaus Niedzwiedz, the Zakspeed team fielded a third Capri in Group 5 with Lili Reisenbichler in most races in 1982. She had worked her way up to this level of racing through the Ford junior program.

Lili Reisenbichler is currently traveling to many historic racing events as a Children's Heart Ambassador, where she drives various vehicles with many well-known racing drivers.

Item No. 30925

The BMW M1 already appears in the 1980/81 catalog in the "Denim" design, for the steerable Servo 140 system. Interestingly, the catalog image shows a retouched vehicle in a larger 1:32 scale, the whereabouts of which remain unknown to this day. The 1:40 scale version, which remains popular with Servo fans to this day, goes on sale. Fans of track-based racetracks had to repaint the car themselves, a relatively difficult task with this design. At least in the 1:32 scale, this is no longer necessary; the model is now available as a new release in both analog and digital versions.

The original car was driven in 1980 by Hans Heyer, who also won the German Racing Championship title that same year with a Lancia Beta. His spectacular accident at the Norisring remains unforgettable, although he fortunately survived unscathed.

Back to the model – the two-tone paint and printing are flawlessly executed. Combined with the differently colored rims at the front and rear, it creates a very attractive look. The original model also comes in a version with the familiar silver BBS rims, but I personally like the choice made here much better.

In terms of handling, everything is as usual – the model isn't overweight and drives accordingly fast, but it also has a relatively loud driving noise. Since this is now the eighth design variant in a smaller scale, nothing stands in the way of a Procar run.

The CARBON Corvette

was founded by Reeves Callaway back in 1979. If you're unfamiliar with CALLAWAY, I recommend visiting the Connecticut-based guys' website (www.callawaycars.com) and then googling the vehicles in question. Some of them are truly awesome.
Callaway has made a name for itself in the USA primarily as a Corvette tuner.
The Carrera version of the Callaway Corvette C7 GT3-R with the number 26 was used by the CALLAWAY COMPETITION USA team with this livery in 2018, including in the Pirelli World Challenge in St. Petersburg and in COTA, Austin, Texas.

By the way, there is also a German CALLAWAY team, the Callaway Competition racing team in Leingarten near Heilbronn in Baden-Württemberg.
“Our Corvette GT3 is unique, just like every single one of your products.”
This slogan, among others, is used by the Swabian racing team on its website. Managing Director Ernst Wöhr's team will field only one brand: the Chevrolet Corvette (of course...). Callaway founder Reeves C. is fitting: "We're competing here in Germany with the only real race car in the USA." Callaway Germany is the longest-serving team in the ADAC GT Masters and has already won the driver and team classifications twice.
The German company also produces custom-made body elements for racing cars made entirely of carbon fiber. For example, the majority of the body of the current Corvette C7 GT3/R is a pure carbon solution.

This model has long been desired, if not demanded, in the club forum. Now it's finally here, at least in the smaller 1:32 scale. A similar vehicle was already available in the Uni and 124 ranges in the mid-1970s, but back then in the Jägermeister livery. In terms of authenticity, the current model pulls out all the stops: the snow shovel-like front spoiler, the angular wheel arch extensions, the protruding rear spoiler. It's no coincidence that the vehicle is affectionately called the "Batmobile" by fans. The not exactly circular shape of the rear wheel arches is also true to the original, and at the rear, you'll find the classic chrome-plated rear panel, which was often lost on the aforementioned Uni and 124 models over the decades.

Technology and driving behavior:
Technically, the chassis once again conforms to familiar and proven designs. Despite its relative size, the total weight of 103 grams is just within a manageable range. The front axle is continuous, and the headlights have a bit of trouble penetrating the blackened lens. The handling once again proves the old adage "length matters." Without the rear magnet, the cornering is wide and easily controllable, although in this case, the edges should be equipped with shoulders. Otherwise, the rear spoiler won't last long if it frequently comes into contact with the guardrails.

Conclusion:
Carrera has been competing in the German Racing Championship and related models from other racing series since 2003 and 2006, respectively. The BMW 3.5 CSL continues this tradition, as does the currently outstanding 935 K3. Visually, the model is very well-designed, and its performance also meets the well-known standards.
