Shelby Le Mans Series – Shelby Modelismo

A report in Spanish from our friends in Brasil of a 12 Hour race they recently did at the Shelby Modelismo club in Sao Paulo. If you don't read Spanish you'll at least be able to enjoy the pictures.

Shelby Le Mans Series – Shelby Modelismo

En marzo de 2011, en el club Shelby ( Brasil ), los fascinantes mini automóviles rodaram por muchas horas en más una edición de su tradicional Carrera , las 12HORAS Shelby.





Los coches, sus pilotos, en mucho tiempo de dedicación, kilometros y kilometros de concentración, capacidad y placer.


Con más esto, el club agrega 45 ediciones de prueba de resistência y larga duración (Replicas de coche 1/32). Marca mundial para los coches en la escala 1/32.

Felicitaciones para los participantes del evento. Felicitaciones para sus equipos y sus coches.

Shelby Modelismo y Ninco, companeros también en las carreras de gran duración.

Special Super Tires

These are "Classic" (silicone) Super Tires offered in special colors - day-glo yellow and day-glo blue. Currently available in a limited number of sizes (see below) - more will be added if there is sufficient demand. These won't appeal to everyone; however, if your goal is to achieve a special look for a car, these tires may be just the ticket. Other potential benefits:

These colors make it very easy to spot your car while racing (particularly helpful when several racers have the same car livery and/or color).
Any "dirt" on your tires is readily visible - let's you know when the tires need to be cleaned

Currently available for two (2) popular wheel sizes:

15x8mm (C.B. Design, Slot.It, etc.) - 6 sizes available (1400/01/02/03/04/05)
17x10mm (C.B. Design, Slot.It, etc.) - 4 sizes available (1407/08/09/10)
