Carrera Digital 132 Dodge Charger 500 "No 1"

Art.Nr. . 30981"

Carrera has been part of the lineup since 2003 —this newly released model is design variant number 11. Not all of the previous versions were modeled after race cars, but this new model is. The original car was driven by Pete Hamilton, who won the “Rookie of the Year” title in 1968. As a result, he was able to join the famous “Petty Enterprises” team. Due to an injury sustained as early as the late 1960s, he ended his NASCAR career after the 1973 season.
As mentioned, this model is already well known— Carrera but the deep blue paint job combined with gold lettering makes this Dodge stand out visually from the crowd of NASCAR cars.
When it comes to handling, everything is already well known—the model offers solid road holding, no matter which magnet combination you choose. Due to its weight, a smooth and anticipatory driving style is necessary. Apart from the ventilation hose protruding from the driver’s window, there are no delicate small parts that could break off during intense racing. Anyone looking for sturdy slot cars will definitely find what they’re looking for here.
