Description
This is the AFX Mark Donohue 1965 Shelby Mustang GT350R Blue/White Mega G+ HO Slot Car
Mark Donohue – AFX Collector Series
Mark Donohue, a multi-talented racer and degreed engineer, amassed a remarkable record of championships, victories, and innovative cars developed across 8 different racing classes.
But it was his 1965 race wins and SCCA Divisional Championship in a Shelby GT350R that helped bring him to the attention of a certain Roger Penske. This began a racing partnership that would yield legendary race wins and success for many years.
The GT350 “R” model was rare indeed with only 37 ever made specifically for competitive use under SCCA rules. The car made an excellent impression on racing circuits, becoming the B-Production divisional champion 3 years in a row.
In typical AFX fashion, the HO Scale version of this car comes fully decked out with even the smallest details like the racing oil cooler under the front grill and the tapered white stripes over the beautiful Guardsman blue body. Even the 5 spoke wheels are the style used when the car was raced.

Mega G+ Chassis
This chassis doesn’t just go faster or handle better than the competition. It wasn’t just built with the ultra-low, narrow dimensions of the original Mega G to continue the reign of the most realistic HO cars on earth. The Mega G+ Chassis is smoother, more consistent, and more intuitive than any car we’ve ever built.

On April 8th of this year, Ford introduced the brand new 2022 Ford GT Holman Moody Heritage Edition #5 car. It pays homage to the company and race team’s 1966 LeMans victory.
Holman Moody’s exclusive Gold exterior paint dons the gorgeous curves of the Ford GT with a more modern touch of exposed carbon fiber. Then there’s the signature Heritage Red and Oxford White accents that make this car one to remember.
The rear wing of the 2022 Ford GT Heritage rises when raced to coincide with the speed it is driven. The AFX model is depicted wing-down, accentuating the dramatic curvature of the body. It goes without saying this Ford GT comes with stupefying, pulse-pounding power and speed. And, with clear headlights and gold racing stripes, this beauty doesn’t just pay tribute, it sets itself apart from its predecessor.

The Mustang of the century, Ford’s 2021 Shelby GT500 is the fastest, most powerful street-legal car Ford has ever produced. The Mustang is Ford’s original “Pony car” and hasn’t deviated from its core composition in more than 55 years. It’s certainly been worth the wait for its 760 horsepower and 625 pound-feet of torque. And don’t let its smaller, lighter, athletic look fool you, with the Predator – the supercharged 5.2 liter V-8 engine, the GT500 roars from 0 to 100 to 0 in under 10.6 seconds and tops out at 180mph. Stomping through the streets with a kind of grace, it’s no wonder this GT500 is the only Mustang to bear the Cobra Snake Badge. AFX displays the Mustang’s unique, new design with a high-flying rear wing, intricate grill and muscular but sleek, sloping body. With black accents atop a stunning red, this car will turn anyone’s head.

It began in 1966 with the J-Car just after LeMans. Ken Miles was test driving the car when it crashed on an embankment, bursting into flames. The rest is heavy-hearted history. There were only 10 made, only half of which ever actually raced. However, the MKIV is known for breaking records both at home and abroad. It only ran in two races: the Sebring 12 Hours and the 24 Hours of Le Mans – the most prestigious race events in all of motorsport. It won both. These victories were no accident. Ford made sure of that. The car was specifically, painstakingly designed for endurance, designed for speed…designed to win. Each element of the MKIV was totally different from other GT40s, starting with where it was made. Unlike its predecessors the MKI and ll cars which were built entirely or partly in Europe, the MKIV was built from scratch in the United States. A little “skunk works” company called Kar Kraft built the all-new J series chassis and newly designed long, streamlined bodywork for Ford’s Special Vehicles Activity. The MKIV was easily the most radical variant of all the GT40s. Other modifications were made as well. A NASCAR-style, steel-tube roll cage was added as a direct result of beloved racer Ken Miles’ tragic death while testing the first J Car. Though it was significantly safer, the roll cage was incredibly heavy which hurt the car’s performance. The 1967 Ford GT40 Mk IV #9 was on the J-9 chassis which was specifically crafted as a Group 7 Can-Am racer. It featured a powerful 3-valve, all-alloy 427 Ford V8 engine—an engineering marvel designed for blistering performance. Built to dominate, its brutal, raw power is palpable. In fact, after testing the car, legendary driver Mario Andretti said the J-9 one of the “scariest cars” he had ever driven.
