Carrera DIGITAL 132 Chevrolet Bel Air 57 "Oval Racer"
Item No.: 20030759
What is an oval racer? Or, to put it another way, what is oval track racing?
In popular terms: driving in circles.
That is the favorite argument of motorsport opponents: “they drive in circles the whole time.”
While this isn't (always) true for European racetracks, it's definitely true for American ones. The dominant racetrack type in the USA is the oval, whether NASCAR, INDY, or other racing series, whether on asphalt, concrete, or sand.
And in the 1960s, since the appearance of the legendary 327 small-block engine, the Bel Air was at home on every one of these tracks, and with great success.
I’ll spare myself the trouble of listing the data now. If you want, you can have a quick look at the following link. The section “post production popularity” is particularly interesting:

The new Chevrolet Bel Air (item no. 30759), which is unfortunately only available for the American market, doesn't have a specific prototype. However, the car's color scheme somehow reminds me of a NASCAR legend. In any case, the paint job is exceptionally well done; the car is a real eye-catcher.
The handling is always surprising; with the relatively narrow tires, you'd expect the car to roll more quickly in fast corners. However, thanks to its wide track and long wheelbase, the Chevy sits very firmly in its lane. The car is truly fun to drive, and the color scheme and overall look do the rest. For me personally, the design of the car is one of the highlights of the year.
