This is the Auto World 1966 Ford GT40 (Carmine) Thunderjet HO Slot Car
GT Icons Thunderjet 2025 Release 1
GT racing pushes man and machine to their limits in a gladiatorial test of will and horsepower. Many legendary automotive brands have built their prestige through success in endurance racing, with road cars often inspired by those competing at Sebring, Daytona and Le Mans. The focus on durability, style, and speed makes GT racing a proving ground, and the cars that survive the gauntlet become icons.
The ThunderJet Ultra-G chassis is Auto World's adaptation of the classic "pancake" design, originally developed by Aurora in the early days of electric slot racing. Auto World expanded the design by adding a Neodymium magnet for better control. Still immensely popular today, entire slot racing events are created around this chassis. ThunderJets Ultra-G are retro slot racing at its best!
