We were laughing about this car over on HRW -- if they hadn't said so in the press release, we wouldn't have noticed that the orange and green were reversed on this car compared to the earlier #55. And we've seen pictures of this car many times! All this time, I've been thinking that the only difference was the #202. I need an emoticon with a cane and sunglasses.

Every photo I have ever seen of the JSPC version of this car has the rear wing in green. Am I wrong?

Default There are definitely images of the car with this coloration.

So maybe the answer is yes.

I have seen it with and without headlights, and with an orange wing and a green wing.

So both are correct.

Or at least images exist to prove both.




Interestingly both of these images are reverse coloration but orange wing and headlights, hey Maurizio more versions you can release

so maybe I won't be paintin' the wing ...

I guess the "truth" of our race car models, is that cars often do change through out the season, let alone in the course of a race. Aero tweeks, sponsors, crash damage can all account for these "innaccuracies"

Thanks Mr Alan ! ... Now I can sleep better.

If you can only work on your BRM pricing

There are at least 3 different threads on SCI relating to the release of this #202 Mazda.

Default Lost my thread, but this car is 100% correct.

SUGO 500km 

787B 
 

#202 RENOWN CHARGE

This is how the car ran at Sugo, there are even photo's of other decorations Maurizio can do. A #58 Renown car, a white #201, and the flip paint versions of the car with the green wing that did not run at Sugo.

Look here: http://slotcarillustrated.com/portal...ad.php?t=61389
