The Real Car ... is an iconic 1:32 slotcar that was released in 2008 as an exclusive Scalextric Club Edition. The model is based on the car of the Aston Martin Racing team that won the GT1 class in 2007 during the 24 Hours of Le Mans. The true Aston Martin DBR9 #009 is one of the most successful and iconic GT racing cars in modern motorsport history. The car was built by Aston Martin Racing in partnership with Prodrive and dominated the GT1 class in the second half of the 2000s. Here are the key facts and achievements of this legendary monster: The Historical Victory (Le Mans 2007) The car with start number #009 made history during the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 2007. The Drivers: The car was driven by the legendary trio David Brabham, Rickard Rydell and Darren Turner. The Performance: After a bloodcurdling fight in the pouring rain, the #009 defeated Corvette Racing's factory team. It was the first class victory for Aston Martin at Le Mans since 1959. The 'Weathered' Look: At the finish, the car was covered in rubber, mud and oil residue—exactly the dirty look Scalextric recreated on the C2965 model. Technical Specifications Among the iconic Gulf colors was pure racing technology: Motor: An atmospheric 6.0-litre V12 that produced a deep, recognizable whining sound. Power: Limits (due to regulations) to about 600 hp, with a torque of 700 Nm. Chassis: An ultra-lightweight construction of carbon fiber (carbon fiber) panels over an aluminum frame, with a total weight of exactly 1,100 kg. Top technology: Carbon fiber brakes and a sequential Xtrac six-speed gearbox. The Gulf Livery Although the DBR9 raced mainly in traditional British Racing Green in its first years (2005-2006), the team switched to the legendary light blue-orange colours of sponsor Gulf Oil in 2007 for the most important races. This design has become a modern classic. Today, the original DBR9 chassis (only about 10 were built as a factory car) are worth millions of euros. They are cherished by collectors and occasionally still in action during historic race weekends such as the Goodwood Festival of Speed or the Le Mans Classic

The interior features blue/orange stitching, Gulf logos embroidered on the headrests and a striking orange marking stripe on the 12-hour position of the carbon steering wheel. Exclusivity: The Gulf paint set was offered as a pepper-expensive factory package exclusively to a very select number of wealthy McLaren customers.

Durability: Equipped with flexible rubber side mirrors and a flexible antenna to minimize damage during crashes The Real Car The real Ferrari 308 GTB Group 4 rally cars have a fascinating history, and the specific model that the Scalextric slot car is based on is the work of the Finnish masters of Mäkelä Auto-Tuning (MAT). Although Ferrari himself preferred the circuit at the time, the legendary Italian tuner Michelotto saw potential in the 308 GTB for rallying. With a blessing from the factory, they built a handful of high-performance Group 4 (and later Group B) rally samples between 1978 and 1985. The projects of Mäkelä Auto-Tuning (MAT) Mäkelä Auto-Tuning, based in Kannus (Finland), is known worldwide for their legendary, ultra-detailed restorations of historic racing and rally cars. They have transformed multiple Ferrari 308 GTBs into historic rally cars according to the exact, stringent FIA Group 4 specifications. Two of their best-known 308 GTB projects are: The 'Vetroresina' Group 4 (#25393): Based on an early and very rare 308 GTB with a body of fiberglass (vetroresina), which formed the perfect, lightweight base for a historic rally car. The Alitalia Tribute (#28817): A breathtaking 1980 308 GTB that was completely converted into Group 4 specifications and was shrouded in the iconic green-white-and-white-red Alitalia-livery (known from the Lancia Stratos). Technical specifications of the real Group 4 308 GTB If MAT rebuilds or restores a car, they go to extremes. The specifications of these Group 4 samples are impressive: The Engine: The atmospheric 2.927 cc V8 is being completely revised and tuned to a power output between 288 hp and 330 hp (depending on the carburetor or injection adjustment), with a whining speed that extends to well above 8,000 rpm. Weight reduction: By using wafer-thin fiberglass or Kevlar body panels, a stripped interior and aluminum components, the car weighs only about 950 to 980 kg. The Chassis: Wide, knocked-out wheel arches to accommodate thick Campagnolo rims with wide rally tires. In addition, it is equipped with a shorter, manual gearbox (dog ring), a mechanical locking differential, an adjustable brake balance and sturdy independent suspension to catch the blows on unpaved roads.

Although model car manufacturer AUTOart released the car at the time under the name "GT3R" (a type designation that Porsche used at the time for the more extreme endurance cars in the FIA GT classes), the Carrera Cup Asia drove entirely according to the official brand cup specifications of the 996 GT3 Cup at the time. Specifications of the real car Unlike a street car, this is a factory stripped race car, built directly by Porsche Motorsport in Weissach: Engine: A rear 3.6-litre water-cooled six-cylinder boxer engine (the legendary 'Mezger' engine). Power: Approximately 381 to 390 hp (depending on fuel and cup specifications in 2004). Weight: Only 1,150 kg. The car has no insulation, no airbags, no air conditioning or other luxury on board to keep the weight as low as possible. Transmission: A six-speed manual transmission that sends the power entirely to the rear wheels. Interior: Fully equipped for the circuit with a welded roll cage, a single bucket seat with a six-point belt and a built-in fire extinguishing system. Sponsor The striking brown-and-yellow color scheme is derived directly from the main sponsor of the time: A-Ha Coffee, a popular coffee chain in Asia at the time. This made Matthew Marsh's car one of the most recognizable appearances on circuits such as Sepang (Malaysia), Zhuhai (China) and Macau. With this car Marsh managed to drag into the coveted Asian title in 2004 after a nerve-wracking season.

The Scalextric Mirage GR8 #11 Gulf (article number C4443) is a popular 1:32 scale slotcar that mimics the historic winner of the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1975. Driven by race legends Jacky Ickx and Derek Bell, this car drove into the iconic blue-orange Gulf Oil colors to victory at the time. Features Drive: Sidewinder engine layout (transversely placed) with rear-wheel drive. Motor: Scalextric Short Can. Gear ratio: 11/36. Lighting: Equipped with working headlights and taillights. Digitally prepared: DPR (Digital Plug Ready), which means that the car can easily be made digitally with a separate chip. The model has been released as a detailed Special Edition and is highly sought after by both collectors and active slotcar racers. The Real Car The real Mirage GR8 was powered by a Ford Cosworth V8 engine. The victory in 1975 marked the third and last time a car in the legendary Gulf colours took the overall victory over Le Mans. The real 1975 Gulf-Mirage GR8 is a legendary sport-prototype racing car. The car was specifically developed and optimized for one main goal: winning the 24 Hours of Le Mans. Features Chassis: An extremely rigid, riveted and glued aluminum monocoque with steel bulkheads. The body was made of lightweight fiberglass and designed by Len Bailey. Compared to its predecessor (the GR7), the GR8 had no less than 21% less air resistance. Engine: A 3.0-liter Ford Cosworth DFV V8 engine. This was a Formula 1 engine in the base. For the 24-hour race, the engine was tuned back to about 380 to 400 hp to improve reliability and fuel economy. Bearing part: Both the engine and the manual Hewland five-speed gearbox functioned as load-bearing parts of the chassis (stressed members). Weight: The car weighed empty only 756 kg. The legendary Le Mans weekend of 1975 The team of John Wyer (Gulf Research Racing Company) built only two copies of the GR8 (chassis 801 and chassis 802) at the time. Both cars were deployed during Le Mans in 1975: Chassis GR8/801 (The winner - car #11): Driven by Jacky Ickx and Derek Bell. Despite severe vibrations from the V8 engine that caused the engine mounts to tear at the end of the race, the car managed to reach the finish. They completed 336 laps and won the race with one lap lead over a Ligier JS2. Chassis GR8/802 (Number 3 - car #10): Driven by Vern Schuppan and Jean-Pierre Jaussaud. This car made the success complete by finishing third. The End of an Era The victory in 1975 was historic because main sponsor Gulf Oil decided to withdraw from endurance racing immediately after the race. With that, the Mirage GR8 was the very last car to take the overall victory over Le Mans in the classic, independent Gulf period. Both original chassis still exist and are worth millions of euros in the classic car world today
