Scalextric Chevrolet Camaro Z28 BBL #7 1981 Spa 24 Hr 1:32 Slot Car

The Chevrolet Camaro was General Motors' direct response to the American muscle car revolution, as they introduced this model to compete in the pony car race. Described as "a small vicious animal that eats Mustangs," the remodeled Camaro Z28, part of the second generation, was given a lower, longer, and bulkier appearance, featuring a powerful V8 engine. Remarkably, the year 1979 saw the highest sales for any Camaro generation. This iconic muscle car has not only been popular on the streets but has also become a favorite on the racing track, with appearances in various motorsport events such as Trans-Am, Drag, NASCAR, Touring, IMSA GT, and IROC. The Camaro has undoubtedly become a staple in American culture, fostering a love for power and speed that resonates with car enthusiasts worldwide.

In 1981, a Camaro driven by Belgian drivers Michel de Deyne, Teddy Pilette, and 'Davit' qualified a credible 6th position at the rain-soaked Spa 24hr race. Unfortunately, a car failure ultimately put them out of the competition. Scalextric, the iconic slot car racing system, taps into the nostalgia and thrill of motor racing, bringing the excitement to life in the comfort of your living room. Scalextric is the ultimate motor racing system for all ages, where miniature cars race against each other on a special track, drawing power from a slot in the middle of each lane (also known as slot racing).

The DPR (Digital Plug Ready) feature on the Scalextric C8515 model allows for easy upgrades to Scalextric Digital or Scalextric ARC PRO Layouts. The car itself is highly detailed, featuring a full interior and a realistic racer design. It also boasts working headlights and taillights, and an easy-to-change braid with magnatraction technology. Scalextric offers a comprehensive range of products to cater to your 1:32nd scale slot car racing needs. You can build your own real-life circuits and choose from a variety of vehicles representing different genres of racing.
