Plastic model that requires assembly and painting. Overall length = 389 mm The photo shows the kit assembled and painted. [A pioneering machine that pioneered a new era]. The Renault RE-20 Turbo has won three F1 Grand Prix races in the 1980 season, demonstrating the great potential of a turbo engine. In 1977, Renault developed the first F1 machine RS-01 equipped with a turbo engine and started the challenge of the Grand Prix race.

In 1979, the engine was made into a twin turbo and evolved into the RS-10 that adopted the mechanism of the ground effect car, and recorded the first victory of the turbo F1. The RE-20 turbo is a further improvement of this RS-10, and the fighting power has been further enhanced, especially by succeeding in reducing the weight by nearly 30 kg. The engine is a 1.5-liter V-6 DOHC equipped with two turbochargers.

By regulation, it produces about 520 horsepower and top-class output while having half the displacement of a naturally aspirated engine. The car body is finished in a typical ground effect car with side pontoons with a reverse wing cross section on both sides of the slender center monocoque. With the success of the RE-20, which won three wins, many turbo F1s will appear after that, and the Grand Prix race will enter the turbo era. This is a 1/12 scale plastic model assembly kit of the Renault RE-20 turbo that was active in the 1980 F1 Grand Prix race. Overall length 389 mm, overall width 184 mm.

It is a large precision scale model with plenty of workmanship and spectacularness. Coil springs are built into the front and rear suspensions, and they operate with the same mechanism as the actual vehicle. The V6 turbo engine is precisely modeled including the turbo system such as turbocharger and intercooler, as well as wiring and piping such as ignition cord and fuel pipe.

The drive system such as the transmission is the same as the actual vehicle. The body cowl and nose cowl are removable. Even after completion, you can see the internal structure such as the frame configuration and the cooling system placed in the side pontoon. You can change the direction of the front wheels to the left or right by turning the steering wheel. The side skirt can also be moved up and down.

The tires are made of hollow rubber with a realistic texture that accurately reproduces the characters on the sidewalls. The cockpit has a dense finish that reproduces the seat belt, shift knob, and ABC pedal.

A set of etched parts for radiators, intercoolers, oil coolers, and brake discs. Thank you for considering the product! This item is in the category "Toys & Hobbies\Models & Kits\Automotive". The seller is "kamken_8534" and is located in this country: JP.
