New Product Release - Item: 77668 - Carisma Racing CRF-GT Pagani Zonda R 1/10th 2WD Performance Pan Car *Kit
What Inspires You?
Here at Carisma Racing we draw our inspiration from some of the greatest vehicles ever designed, raced and driven. We never stop being amazed by what the automotive world can achieve, and the passion that's evident at all levels of the industry.
One company that's been firmly on our radar is Pagani. Since 1992 this Italian manufacturer has been producing Supercars that have given the more established names in this genre more than a run for their money. The original Zonda, and all of its evolutions have become some of the most iconic Italian Supercars in history. One model, the Zonda R has always been our firm favourite.
But first a few Zonda R facts...
On 30 June 2010, Pagani claimed a new record for production-based cars at the Nürburgring with the Pagani Zonda R. It lapped the circuit in a staggering 6:47 seconds. Not long after its launch a Zonda R driven by The Stig, lapped the Top Gear test track in just 1:08.5 seconds. 'Officially' it was disqualified from the Power Lap board because it wasn't road legal.
'Unofficially', it was the third fastest car to ever go around the track. Again to put this in perspective, the current fastest 'Road Legal' car to ever go round the track is the Zonda R's sibling, the Pagani Huayra at: 01:13.8 seconds. It seems Pagani do know how to build very fast cars...
And So Do We!
We will manufacture just 500 Limited Edition Zonda R kits. These will be numbered items, the body made under license from HORACIO PAGANI S.P.A., Italy. We can proudly say that this is the most realistic body shell in the history of Carisma Racing. The body panels are Screen Printed to replicate the original cars Dry Carbon Look and this finish is ONLY available with this Limited Edition KIT. To complete the realism and photorealistic look, Injection Moulded pieces are used to further enhance the detail and replicate items like wing mirrors, spoilers and all the aerodynamic aids the 1:1 car possesses. We have truly replicated the real vehicle in every way possible. Just take a step back and look at it, stunning doesn't even come close!
The CRF-GT Explained
The CRF-GT is based on the new Carisma Racing CRF platform. It shares all the quality and innovation of that Innovative 2WD race chassis and features the same ease of geometry and tuning options of its Chassis Only CRF Kit sibling. The only noticeable differences are the addition of a front bumper and the design of the battery hold down mechanism.
Numbered Pieces
Each chassis will be laser engraved with its edition number making this not only a fun and iconic Supercar to own, but also a collectable snapshot of automotive history.
