Description
This is the AFX 1969 AstroVette LMP12 Gold/Black LTD Mega G+ HO Slot Car
1969 was the golden age of exploration. Moon landings were no longer the stuff of sci-fi stories. Space explorers had become real life superheroes. Besides taking a trip to the moon, astronauts also had one particular job perk to look forward to – driving a ‘69 Corvette. Thanks to former Indy 500 winner, Jim Rathmann, astronauts in training were given the use of new Chevy cars every year for the whopping sum of $1. Apollo 12’s all-Navy crew picked the Riverside Gold Corvette Sport Coupes. All three were identical save one “touch of uniqueness” – a small rectangular plaque on the car’s fender. Each driver’s role on the spacecraft was engraved in the color assigned to them for their mission: red, white and blue.
The AstroVettes – as they were called, came with the thunderous roar of a 427 Turbo-Jet V-8 engine, four-speed wide-range transmission and 390 horsepower. The gold body donned black-painted “wings” designed by iconic stylist Alex Tremulis, evoking the colors of the Apollo 12 module. This AFX car represents the Corvette used by Lunar Module Pilot, Alan Bean. To Alan, the fourth person to walk on the moon, said driving his AstroVette was the one thing that compared to the thrill of flying through space.

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.

Includes One AFX 1969 AstroVette LMP12 Gold/Black LTD Mega G+ HO Slot Car | This is the AFX Formula N #4 Red/Gray Mega G+ HO Slot Car Formula N No matter what type of racing you’re into, you just can’t argue one simple fact: Formula cars are true works of art. Unprecedented downforce meets monumental grippage in today’s Formula cars, with the second most advanced technology after fighter war planes. The unmatched braking system allows acceleration from 0-100mph back down to 0mph within a mere 4 seconds. The wings are engineered to literally manipulate air. They create such intense downforce that, at upwards of 150MPH, an F1 car can be driven upside down on the ceiling of a tunnel. With those mind-blowing engineering facts, we refused to take a single shortcut in designing our very own AFX Exclusive Formula N cars.

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.
