Wing screws

Perhaps it is not seen, but it is there. And if it is there, it is clear that it must be placed, precisely because it is there. Right?

King of the 308

There are only a few Ferrari 308s that have participated in competition, but the history of some of them is really exciting, or at least curious. We are going to talk about the first unit of a Ferrari 308 GTB that arrived to the US. Ferrari had problems in the American market due to the new safety and emissions regulations, and such problems prevented that the successor of the Daytona (the 365 GT4 BB) could even be sold in the US. In 1975, when Ferrari introduced the 308 GTB, the owner of the Ferrari dealer in San Francisco Ray Ramsey used an exemption in the legislation to be able to import one to his country before the first official unit arrived to the US.

...and more to come!!!

As everyone knows, we love talking about novelties, both about the new references that we receive at SpotModel, as well as about the references that manufacturers announce for the coming months. But this time we go sooooo much further: we are going to talk about some products that have not yet been even announced... What do you think?

MP4/2C

A few weeks ago we told you some things about the impressive McLaren Honda MP4/4 and today it's the turn of one of its predecessors: the McLaren TAG Porsche MP4/2C. It was the third evolution of the MP4/2, characterized by some changes in aerodynamics, which helped McLaren to take second place in the 1986 constructors' championship, with Prost and Rosberg at the wheel. Today it is unthinkable that a Formula 1 model remains collecting victories in the championship for 3 consecutive seasons, hence the huge importance of the MP4/2.

Kevlar

We are going to talk a little about kevlar, a great invention widely used in the world of motor racing. This material has some very interesting characteristics such as its lightness, resistance to breakage, and its easy machining. Embedded in a resin, it allows the manufacturing of bucket seats, helmets, mufflers, fuel tanks, all kinds of parts and body sections, and lots more. A real wonder.

#92

Attention!!! Are we all really paying attention? Sure? Perfect, because we don't want anyone to miss the news: the Porsche 911 991 GT3 RSR by Nunu is coming, with the legendary "pink pig" livery with number #92 at the 2018 Le Mans. Yes, you read it right!!!! The boss, who is crazy about anything that has a Porsche label on, says he wants half a dozen to whet his appetite. It is scheduled to arrive in Europe for the end of this summer and soon we will open the product so that you can book as many as you want, in case you are even crazier than the boss... XD

Pit stop for PrintLab

SpotModel's PrintLab has been running non-stop since 2019, every single day of each year, bringing digital decal prints of the designs of the most intrepid scale modelers to all parts of the planet. :)

MP4/4

The McLaren MP4/4 was born a winner: in 16 races held in the 1988 season, it achieved 15 victories, 15 pole positions, 8 fastest laps, 10 one-two finishes, 25 podiums (out of 32 possible) and 199 points (out of 240 possible). All of this earned McLaren the top position in the Constructors' Championship, with Ayrton Senna and Alain Prost finishing first and second in the championship. It is statistically one of the best single-seaters in the history of Formula 1.

312 F1

Back in the days when a paddock was just a little more than a horse stable, when the team names were written in chalk on the wall, when they drank a few beers before qualifying or smoked a couple of cigarettes before putting on their helmets, there were really authentic and slightly crazy people who spent hours and hours around some machines whose effectiveness and speed half of the time were the result of a daring idea that an engineer had while peeing.

Dragons

The dragon is a mythological being that is present in cultures all around the world. In some of them they are huge beasts that spit fire while emitting sounds that make the body hair stand on end. Can you imagine it?
