Scalextric C129 March Ford 771

Rare famous classic Scalextric Formula 1 model with March decals

 

Six wheel racing cars attracted tremendous attention and interests towards the end of the 1970s. The theory of the 6 wheel March was that on conventional racing cars the large wheels at the back of the car disturb the airflow around the rear of the car and create 'drag'. However, to reduce them in size would mean less tyre surface in contact with the track and a corresponding reduction in road holding and car control. March did reduce the wheels in size and compensated for loss in tyre surface by having four rear wheels instead of two!

This very sought after model of the Scalextric C129 March Ford 771 model is complete.
