November News - Le Mans Miniatures & Thunderslot
#1

Gaugemaster are expecting plenty of goodies to arrive in the UK during November. One of the brands they distribute is Le Minatures, who have two new liveries for their fabulous Renault-Alpine A442.

   

132077/9M Renault-Alpine A442 No.9 Le Mans 1977  Jabouille-Bell

   

Jean-Pierre Jabouille took pole position for the 1977 Le Mans 24 hours and lead from the start. Teammate Derek Bell stretched the gap and at sunrise on the Sunday everything looked good for the No.9 car - still in first place, eight laps ahead of Jurgen Barth's Porsche 936. Just after 9am, their race was over with engine failure.

The Le Mans Miniatures model is a new livery. The cars have a resin body and ABS plastic chassis with mostly Slot.it components. All the Le Mans Miniatures releases are limited editions. Due mid-November. RRP £105

132077/16M Renault-Alpine A442 No.16 Le Mans 1977  Pironi, Arnoux & Fréquelin

   

Of the four Renault-Alpine cars entered Le Mans in 1977, the No. 16 Bendix-sponsored was the one non-factory car. It is is notable as the first car entered by Hugues de Chaunac at the 24 Hours of Le Mans. The car had served as the development chassis during testing, but failed to complete a lap in the race. Due mid-November. RRP £105
