The Slotcar
The Slot.it Ford GT40 Mark I #6 is a scale model (1:32) of the legendary winner of the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1969.
Features
Model Reference: Slot.it CW09 / SICW09
Drive: Sidewinder configuration (engine is located right in front of the rear axle).
Engine: Standard equipped with a powerful V12 engine (typically 21,500 to 23,000 RPM).
Chassis: EVO6 chassis with high-quality, adjustable parts (such as an adjustable front axle and aluminium rear rims).
Compatibility: Analog to be used on virtually all known orbits (Carrera Evolution, Scalextric, Ninco, Policar). The chassis is also prepared for easy conversion to digital systems via specific decoders.
Scales & Type: 1:32 Analog RTR (Ready-to-Run) slotcar
Livery / Version: Iconic blue-orange Gulf-design
Real car (Chassis #1075): Won the 24 Hours of Le Mans in both 1968 and 1969
Drivers (1969): Jacky Ickx and Jackie Oliver
Version: Limited collector edition delivered in a box including numbered certificate.
Slot.it has released this model under the reference SICW09 (as a limited Le Mans Winners edition in a special collector's box) and later also in regular production runs under the CA18 line (such as the CA18g).
Rarity
The limited Collectors Edition (SICW09) with numbered certificate is now very rare and a wanted collector's item among slotcar enthusiasts. On platforms such as eBay or at specialized specialty stores, the car still pops up, but often at significantly higher collector prices.
The car is known in the slotcar community as an absolute "weapon" on the track: thanks to its low center of gravity and the refined Slot.it technique, it drives extremely smoothly and fast.
The Real Car
The Ford GT40 Mk I (chassis #1075) with start number #6 in the iconic blue-orange Gulf colours won the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1969. This is one of the most legendary cars and races in motorsport history because of a series of unique events:
The legendary drivers: The car was sent to victory by Belgian racing legend Jacky Ickx and the Brit Jackie Oliver.
Ickx's protest: At the time, drivers ran to their car at the start, started blindly and drove away without seatbelts (the traditional "Le Mans start"). In protest against this life-threatening ritual, Ickx walked quietly to his car, stepped in calmly and carefully secured his seat belts. Because of this, he left last.
The same chassis wins twice: This particular chassis (#1075) made history by winning the 24 Hours of Le Mans two years in a row. In 1968, the exact same car already won (then with starting number #9, driven by Pedro Rodríguez and Lucien Bianchi).
Blood-curdling finish: The final stage of the race in 1969 was a nerve-wracking duel between Ickx in the outdated Ford GT40 and Hans Herrmann in the faster, more modern Porsche 908. After 24 hours of racing and numerous overtakings in the final laps, Ickx won the race with a lead of just 120 metres (about a few seconds).
This historic victory abolished the traditional Le Mans start from 1970. The #6 Gulf Ford GT40 has since been a symbol of pure persistence and tactical driving.
