Policar Lotus 72 Hockenheimring 1970, #72
Policar Lotus 72 No.2 Gold Leaf. This 1:32 model slot car reproduces the Lotus 72 in which Jochen Rindt won his last Grand Prix at Hockenheim in 1970. Finally, there is a classic F1 car for the collector and racer! New Triple Gearing accurate reproduction of the Hewland FG400 gearbox. Comes displayed in a crystal box and sleeve.
Like Colin Chapman's Lotus 72 took Formula 1 by storm, this first F1 from Policar sets new standards for F1 replicas.
This long-awaited model, designed by Andrew Rowland and engineered by Slot, relies, among other things, on an innovative gearbox that enables a proper external replica of the Hewland FG400 gearbox. The concept is based on an idle axle with a crown/spur gear combination that transmits power from the motor to the rear shaft.
Power is supplied by a Policar custom-designed FF-150 type motor, with one open and one closed face.
The motor, gearbox, and axle are housed inside a separate pod, yet another innovation unique to the Policar F1 line. This permits unprecedented levels of tuning and performance for an F1 slot car.
A Complete line of tune-up parts is available separately, including spare motor pods, axles with different gear ratios, pinions, set screw aluminum rear wheels, and racing F22 tires.
