MiniGT, Tarmacworks, YM Model Toyota Supra MK4 – A 2JZ FEATURETTE
A Generation’s change! The first generation of the Toyota Supra was simply a modification of a Toyota Celica. The maximum 145 hp was only available in Japan and therefore left little room for European buyers. The second generation (1981 to 1985) managed 170 hp, but again as a Celica Supra combination. The third Supra (MA70/71) was finally allowed to be independent and came as 3.0 GT Turbo A from 1988 onwards with a respectable 270 hp and different versions. On the left side: 2nd gen 1984 Celica Supra by Para64 VS 3rd gen MKIII Supra from 1988 by Tarmacworks It was not until 1993, however, with Supra Mark IV, internally…

CMS, MiniGT, Tarmacworks, Kyosho Lancia Delta – A Racing Myth FEATURETTE
How it all started… The Lancia Delta S4 is one of the rare rally cars of the so-called Group B – and was even one of its most sophisticated examples. Although the era of Group B was extremely short, from 1982 to 1986, these four years were enough to anchor it forever in the annals of rallying. The reason is simple: the federations relaxed the regulations, suddenly almost everything was technically possible – and instead of 400 production cars, only 200 race cars were needed to be admitted to the WRC. For an evolution stage, i.e. an improvement of the car, you even needed only 20 production kits. CM Model…

Tarmacworks Pagani Huayra R β A revolutionary FEATURETTE
Beyond the limits! Another Pagani which is exclusively developed for the race track: With the Huayra R, the Italian sports car brand presents, in its own words, the “most extreme Pagani of all time”. Just like the Zonda R shown in 2009, the hardcore version of the Huayra is built only for the race track and comes with a completely newly developed engine, the Pagani V12-R. 850 hp and 750 Nm of maximum torque at a top speed while 9000 rpm meet a kerb weight of only 1050 kilos. The only components that have been taken over from the “normal” road-going Huayra are the exterior mirrors. Compared to the Huayra…

Tarmacworks Pagani Zonda R / Revolucion β A piece of art FEATURETTE
Craftsmanship in absolute perfection: A perfect definition that seems to have been created for the Pagani car brand from Italy, but which certainly applies to the true-to-scale version by Tarmacworks. Both know their craft like no other. Since hardly any “normal mortal person” can afford the sinfully expensive original Pagani in his garage with its adjoining wine cellar, it makes sense to resort to the very detailed 1/64th scale reproductions from Tarmacworks. The now legendary non-street legal Pagani Zonda R is one of them. A true poem on four wheels, a masterpiece of engineering and mechanical finesse! The Pagani Zonda R Special Edition with full carbon body Loud, brute and…

Tarmacworks Ferrari 488 GT3 BPGT Series 2018 β Special Edition FEATURETTE
A toast to its exclusivity! βItβs shiny, itβs special, itβs fast: Of course because itβs a Ferrari!β, a typical statement when it comes to evaluating the cars from Maranello in the heart of Italy. Except for the fast part as mentioned before, we can fully agree! The Ferrari 488 GT3 shone more with its eye-catching Singha livery than with victories on the race track during the Blancpain GT Series 2018. The strikingly beautiful yellow-blue-white Singha beer livery of the team TP 12 β Kessel Racing was the ideal reason for Tarmacworks (teamed up with IXO-models) to take up the cause and give this special model a try. The Special Edition…
