Another excellent resin kit from Brach Model, with its fantastic perfectly crafted parts that we all love so much about this brand. This kit recreates the Garelli 125cc that Fausto Gresini rode in 1987, with which he dominated the 125 cc world championship , winning up to 10 races. Only one escaped him, the last of the year held in Jarama (Spain), although it really was the Portuguese GP (Estoril had not been finished on time). The kit has great detail, and its assembly is the closest thing to built the real motorcycle. Without a doubt, a kit that will not disappoint you!

F1 lovers are still in luck, and it is now the turn of the car with which Alain Prost won the title of World Champion in 1986. The kit includes a large number of parts to recreate in detail both the chassis in carbon like the incredible V6 TAG Porsche engine. Includes photo-etched plates with details for the mechanical part, such as the TAG Turbo letters that go on the cylinder head covers or the belt buckles. Decal sheets include tobacco advertising and various patterns of fiber and composite parts.

Support with 40 units of tire inflation valves made in resin by 3D printing. The valve design resembles that used on the rims of NASCAR championship cars, but can be used on other 1/25-1/24 scale models. The valves are delivered on a support with walls, which must be removed to be able to paint the pieces more easily.

As many as 9 victories was achieved by the Lancia Delta HF 4WD in the 1987 season, starting a whole era of dominance in the World Rally Championship. Two of the most prestigious victories were achieved at the Portugal and Sanremo Rallyes, with Marku Alen and Miki Biasion as drivers respectively. The transkit consists of a complete resin bodywork without the bulky wings or the bulging hood of other versions, the exterior mirrors, the roof air intakes, photo-etched parts with the different grilles, the windshield wipers, harness buckles and other details, as well as the decal sheet with the Martini decoration used in both rallies, both with the number #3 on the doors. Chance?

Up to three decal sheets make up this set of carbon fiber patterns for the Ferrari F60 Tamiya model kit.

In total there are 26 carbon fiber patterns identified with the numbers of the parts of the kit on which they have to be placed.

In 2014 the San Remo rally did not qualify for the world championship, but that does not mean that very interesting vehicles participated, such as the Ford Fiesta R5 sponsored by BRC and powered by natural gas. Before he retired by an accident in the ninth stage, he was leading the rally. This complete Studio27 decal sheet allows us to make this version, for which we must use the Belkits Ford Fiesta kit as a base.

Jipocar's version of the Fiesta WRC may be one of the most striking, and in the 2014 Rally Mexico its driver, the Czech Martin Prokop, obtained his best result of the season, fifth place.

The perfect event for Ken Block... a show with an entire area of the Monza circuit with hairpin after hairpin where the parking brake is a must.
