Scalextric Chevrolet Camaro #7 Bob Jane

Bob Jane Camaro The Scalextric Chevrolet Camaro Bob Jane is a beloved collectible among slotcar enthusiasts, which mimics the iconic "Hugger Orange" ZL-1 Camaro by Australian racing legend Bob Jane. This car was one of the few original ZL-1s in the world and dominated Australian coach racing in the early 70's. ## Main Scalextric Models Scalextric has released several versions of the Bob Jane Camaro on scale 1:32, often as limited editions: * C2413 (Number 7): A rare limited edition (1500 pieces) of the 1969 Camaro in the famous orange color with Castrol sponsorship. * C2696 (Number 76): A limited edition of the 1969 Bob Jane Camaro, also in orange with sponsorship of Castrol, Levi’s and Total. * C4172 (1972 Symmons Plains): A more recent version of the Chevrolet ZL-1 Camaro with which Jane participated in the 1972 ATCC Championship. ## Technical Specifications (1:32 Scale) Most of Scalextric’s Bob Jane Camaro models share a similar technical base designed for speed and grip: * Engine: Sidewinder setup with a 18,000 rpm S-Can motor for a smooth weight distribution. * Drive: 2WD with plastic wheels and rubber tires. * Chassis: Equipped with Magnatraction and space for up to three neodymium magnets for extra stability on the track. * Extras: Often Digital Plug Ready (DPR), making them easy to convert for digital jobs with a separately available chip. ## Availability and Value Because these models have often been released as limited editions, they are considered "difficult to find," especially outside of Australia.
