This is the AFX Ford GT40 Mark IV #9 White Mega G+ HO Slot Car
AFX Collector Series – Ford GT40 Mk IV J-9
The origins of the Ford GT40 MKIV is marred by tragedy. 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.

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.

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.

Plus, it features a “pop off” prop saver design and incredibly tough EPP construction that makes it one of the most durable trainer airplanes yet!
Best of all it also features SAFE (Sensor Assisted Flight Envelope) technology that helps prevent overcontrol, loss of orientation, and crashes so nearly everyone can learn to fly successfully. The 100% factory-assembled airframe is equipped with a reliable electric power system, receiver, and servos.

P-51D Mustang 450mm is a scale replica of the legendary U.S. Army Air Corps fighter that makes learning to fly radio controlled (RC) airplanes in more places and smaller spaces easy and fun! Its ultra-micro size makes it an ideal choice for a smaller trainer model that can be flown in large yards, parks, soccer fields, and other suitable spaces where larger models can’t typically be flown successfully by first-time pilots.

And the fun doesn't stop while or after you learn how to fly! The lightweight yet extremely durable EPP airframe is equipped with a powerful electric motor that delivers long flight times and provides plenty of speed and power to perform aerobatic maneuvers including loops, rolls, and even inverted (upside down) flight in the Experienced mode. Or, if you’re not ready to perform aerobatics on your own, the P-51 can automatically perform single or even multiple loops or rolls in the Beginner or Intermediate flight modes with just a quick press of the “Aerobatics” button and by moving the control stick in the desired direction!
This Ready-To-Fly (RTF) model includes everything needed to fly in one box and is a perfect choice if you're a new RC pilot. From the 5-channel 2.4GHz controller/transmitter and the AA batteries for it, to the two 1S 400mAh rechargeable Lithium Polymer (LiPo) batteries and a convenient charger that can be used with a variety of USB power sources, there's nothing extra you need to buy or provide! There’s even a spare propeller featuring the unique "pop off" prop saver design included in the rare chance you might need it.
Features
| 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.
