The Italian brand Fenix Racing have introduced their newest body for the 70 F1 series: a super detailed replica of the Ferrari T2 as raced in 1976 by Niki Lauda and Clay Regazzoni. The T2 is the car that Lauda drove when he suffered his infamous Nurburgring crash and made utterly famous by ‘Rush’, the movie.
At the Tokyo Hobby Show 2018 the re-release of the 1/10 scale replica of the Ferrari 312T3 made its debut at the Tamiya booth. This classic Ferrari Formula 1 car, build on Tamiya’s F104W chassis, is a special limited edition release and is already in the hobby stores.
The Ferrari 312T3 made its racing debut in the 1978 South African Grand Prix. Underneath it’s aerodynamically polished, wide body lay a 3-liter horizontally installed 12 cylinder engine with 510 horsepower of output. With drivers Carlos Reutemann and Gilles Villeneuve at the wheel, the Ferrari 312T3 took a total of 4 victories for the Grand Prix season and took second place in the 1978 Constructors Cup.
