Newsletter 672: Jolly ClubJuly 17^th, 2025

In the 1990 season Robert Droogmans managed to become European Rally Champion, and on his way to the title the victory achieved in the ADAC Rally of Germany was key. Reji Model offers us this decoration to use on the asphalt version of the 1/12 scale Italeri model of the Lancia Delta 16 valves.

In the 1988 season, a second structure, although closely linked to Lancia, also began to use units of the powerful Lancia Delta HF 4WD. Reji Model's fourth option of its transkit for the Delta 4WD allows one of the two units that the Jolly Club used in its participation in the 1988 Rally Portugal, where Fiorio (number #9) and Loubet (number #7) achieved finish second and third respectively behind the official Lancia Martini. The transkit consists of a complete resin body without the bulky fenders or the bulging hood of other versions, the exterior mirrors, the roof air intakes, photo-etched with the different grilles, the windshield wipers, harness buckles and other details, as well as the decal sheet with the Totip decoration.

Set of two stencils that will allow you to paint with total ease and precision the Calsonic logos on the 1/12 scale side radiators of the Tamiya McLaren MP4/6 kit, replacing the decals of the original kit, which lose realism and flake off over time. The stencils have a lip in the center to fit on the radiator support, allowing precise positioning of the part. Recommended for use with acrylic paints only. The use of solvent-based paints softens the resin from which the stencil is made, so the fine details of some of the lettering may come undone and disappear.

Italeri presents us with a new kit of the Renault Magnum. A huge kit that includes full details on both the engine and the cabin, as well as the usual rubber wheels, gorgeous decals, etc.

Decal sheet to reproduce the Studie x CSLMotorsport team's version of the BMW M4 GT3 (G82), which made its debut in Japan in 2022. Although the season began with two retirements in the first two races, the team achieved its first victory in the GT300 class at the Suzuka 300 km, the third round of the championship. This decal sheet allows to reproduce this version based on the Nunu kit, and includes the carbon pattern decal set for the body reference LB-M4CF.

There must be something about the Suzuka circuit that allows the BMW M4 GT3 to perform at its best level, since in the 2023 season the BMW M4 GT3 (G82) once again repeated victory on that track in the GT300 category, which was the 450 Kms of Suzuka. This decal sheet allows to reproduce this version based on the Nunu kit, and includes the carbon pattern decal set for the body reference LB-M4CF.

For the 2025 Japanese Grand Prix at Suzuka, the RB team unveiled a special white livery for its RB21... while a twin-liveried Honda NSX toured Tokyo to explore the country's authentic ties to automotive culture. This decal sheet recreates this livery, which so befits Honda's beautiful supercar.

What would you think if someone suggested you take a Ferrari F50, prepare it for racing, and then put it on the track on the dangerous and winding Macau street circuit for the Supercars Championship? Well, it wouldn't be anything new, because the same thing happened in 1995, fortunately with a happy ending, as the car finished intact and, what's more, in first place. This decal sheet allows you to reproduce this almost "unique" racing version of the F50, for use on the Tamiya Ferrari F50 kit.

This seat model has a long history, having been launched in 1966, revolutionizing the concept of the sport seat.

The R5 Turbo seats were characterized by their carefully designed design to enhance lateral support for the occupants, with prominent, enveloping side cushions. When designing the Renault 5 Turbo kit, Tamiya included flatter seats to accommodate the driver's figure, thus losing the seats' spectacular appearance.

In this reference, the fabric texture in the central part of the seat is smooth.

Tameo Kits has decided to redesign its Ferrari 412 T2 kit from the ground up, following current quality standards.

This reference reproduces the version with which Jean Alesi achieved his first and only Formula 1 victory, at the Canadian Grand Prix held at the Gilles Villeneuve Circuit in Montreal in June 1995, where, curiously, he had to take a lap of honor to return to the pits aboard Schumacher's Benetton, after running out of fuel at the "Epingle du Casino" corner.
