Some nice exposure for Carrera:

After the huge impact the 935 of our new CEO had in Spa, here's the next public event with a certain Slotcar-brand prominently featured:

Well... who'da thunk it?

Just ignore the chaos during the red flag.

I don't understand, this is a race video. It would help if you put a time marker as to what we are suppose to look at.

I had a look but didn't have the patience to wait for the Carrera sponsorship I assume? If I had more time I would watch it all though!

[Slottus]

Okay, for those with less time on their hands, go to 1:39:10 ff.

That race was a bit odd... but the comments in the chat well made up for this.

The following two races on sunday didn't go that well...

Hey Slottus... I'm sure you guys have already thought of it, but since you already have the new mold Porsche, that livery will really pop on black Carrera track. My request is that it be made in D/124 and available in the U.S....

I like Gorig's Petty Livery Porsche.
Maybe Carrera will make one?
According to an article on another site, "Revell is On the starting grid of Spa, Stefan Görig's Porsche 935S was sponsored by Carrera and Revell. An initiative that leads us to think that in the 2020 plans, the extraordinary Porsche 935S will be part of both the Revell static model range and the Carrera slot model range."

Sponsor your own CEO's car? Cool...

Unnnnfortunately, the FIA Motorsport Games Porsche is the current GT3 R, which is quite different to the new RSR we have in our lineup.
And Porsche has become very strict about livery/bodyshape mixups.

Regarding the news for 2020:

I am hoping that is a tease for the 2020 Porsche in 1/24

cheers

Bummer about the 991 . Like DM though, I would be in on the teaser car. Need a running mate for the Rothmans Porsche. Don't care much for the Pink Pig.
Randy

Appreciate the updates Slottus.

[Slottus]

Btw, here's this year's toy-chain "idee+spiel" Special Edition, available now in germany.

So don't despair, there's still the Bel Air!

Little update:

Porsche allowed us to do the FIA Motorsport Games livery on the RSR as a Limited Edition, so here are some pics of the first decorated sample.

Item-#23903.

[Dave Kennedy]

Looks very nice, G-man.

[Slottus]

Thx, Dave!

[HomeRacingWorld]

Hey that's pretty cool. I'll add that one.

[32lbking]

I see from the part# that it is 1/24. Will that be available in the USA?
Randy

[Slottus]

It's the 24th scale Limited for this year, it should be available in the states.

The 32nd-scale Limited Edition for this year will be the Stella-BMW CSL, btw.
The one with the graph-paper livery.
