Castrol's cream, green and red colours run across this Scalextric Jaguar XJR9 #60, including its fitted rear wing.

The #60 Castrol Jaguar Racing XJR-9 is a legendary sports-prototype race car that won the 24 Hours of Daytona in 1988. The car was designed by Tony Southgate and deployed by the racing team of Tom Walkinshaw Racing (TWR) with official Jaguar factory support.
The Historical Victory
In the 80's Porsche dominated endurance racing. Jaguar specifically designed the XJR-9 to break this hegemony. During its competitive debut in the American IMSA GTP class, the car with starting number 60 immediately won the prestigious 24 Hours of Daytona.

Drivers: Martin Brundle, Raul Boesel and John Nielsen (with Jan Lammers as extra rider during the race).
Performance: The car was driving an extremely tight race and finished exactly one lap for the second-placed Porsche 962.
The Livery: While the cars in the European World Sportscar Championship were running with the purple-and-white Silk Cut sponsorship, the American IMSA cars were sprayed in the iconic green-red-white Castrol colors.

Technical Specifications
The XJR-9 was a technical masterpiece that combined brute force with advanced aerodynamics.

Motor: A monumental, atmospheric 7.0-litre (6,995 cc) V12 engine. This engine was basically derived from the engine from the Jaguar XJS street car.
Power: About 750 hp at 7,200 rpm.
Chassis: A super-light and rigid monocoque made of carbon fiber (carbon) and Kevlar.
Special feature: The car had characteristic closed rear wheel arches (rear wheel spats) to maximize ground effect and reduce air resistance.

Popular Culture and Models
Due to its iconic status, the #60 Castrol XJR-9 is very popular among collectors and gamers:

Simracing: The car is prominent in racing games such as Forza Motorsport.
Scale models: There are countless die-cast and slotcar replicas produced from this particular Daytona winner by brands such as Corgi (1:43), CMR (1:18) and Slot.it.
