■Product Description
This is a 1/43 scale handmade model car of the "Porsche 962C "Rothmans Porsche Team Schuppan" JSPC Suzuka 1000km 1988 No.25" produced by "VISION".
This model reproduces the "Porsche 962C "Rothmans Porsche Team Schuppan"" that participated in the "SUZUKA 1000km Race", one of the races in the 1988 All Japan Sports Prototype Car Endurance Championship (JSPC).
【Vehicle Explanation】
The Group C category appeared in 1982 due to a revision of the FIA regulations. There was no limit on engine displacement, and although the amount of fuel used during races was regulated, there was a relatively high degree of freedom in machine production, and many automobile manufacturers entered and participated.
Porsche developed the Porsche 956 as its first Group C car and put it into actual competition from 1982. The 956 was a machine full of new innovations, including a 2.7-liter horizontally opposed six-cylinder twin-turbo engine mounted in the center of an aluminum monocoque chassis, and a body designed as Porsche's first ground effect car, aiming to reduce drag and generate strong downforce.
After its debut in competition in 1982, it achieved a brilliant record, including four consecutive victories at the 24 Hours of Le Mans until 1985, before being replaced by the next-generation 962C.
The 962 was based on the 956, but was improved mainly to ensure driver safety, and appeared in 1984 in compliance with the American IMSA-GTP class regulation that "the driver's toes must not extend beyond the center of the front axle while driving." Porsche extended the wheelbase (120 mm). Later, the FIA Group C also added the same standard to its regulations, so the 962 for Group C was named the 962C.
The 962C won the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1986 and 1987, and also achieved great success in races around the world, including Japan's JSPC (All Japan Sports Prototype Car Endurance Championship).
This time, we have reproduced the 962C of Team Schuppan that participated in the 1000km endurance race held at Suzuka Circuit, the 5th round of the JSPC in 1988.
[Model Description]
The model is a modified version of the 3D data of the 962C released by our company, and the body of the early model 962C short tail specification has been created.
The sponsor colors of white and dark blue were masked and painted one by one, and each sponsor decal was applied, and then several layers of clear coat were applied and polished repeatedly to eliminate the edges of the decals and create a mirror finish.
The wheels have rims made of machined aluminum with excellent roundness. Aiming for a sharp reproduction, the disc/spoke parts are combined with etched parts to achieve a suspension that combines high quality and realism.
The 962C, an icon of Porsche racing in the 1980s, will have further variations to look forward to.
