The Porsche 911 GT1 is far removed from the production car which it contains the central cell. In fact, Porsche has an opposite approach to that of its rivals by building a racing car which she counterpart a road version. 1998 will see the appearance of the 911 GT1 evolution, pure carbon chassis prototype.
This is Mercedes signing the pole with CLK-LM. The best Toyota is not far away, the 911 GT1 either, and the best LMP1, the BMW 2, advanced to sixth place !
As against the Porsche LMP1 and Nissan are already clearly struggling. At 22h, the No. 25 Porsche took command at the halfway point, two ahead of the Nissan Porsche # 30. The No. 25 has damaged its flat bottom in a runway excursion, and No. 26 encounter cooling problems. And this is the Toyota GT-One in the lead with three laps ahead of the best 911 GT1. At 9 am : the Toyota box remakes of his own, the No. 26 Porsche took the opportunity to take command, but Toyota quickly recover its property. This is without counting the ultimate twist of fate for the Japanese: A 12:21, the box gives! The 911 GT1 thus offer twice the 26 preceding the 25. Nissan No. 32 was third.
The kit:
A Revell box from 1999 which has the particularity to offer an already painted body ! the black around the windows is done ! The rims are also pre-painted.
Only downside: the stickers! yes it s not mean decals but really stickers!
Otherwise the whole is well detailed, especially the motor section (which will unfortunately invisible!)
