What sets the TR61 apart from its competition is its innovative pontoon-fender bodywork, designed to optimize aerodynamics and cooling—a radical departure from conventional race car designs of the era. Powered by a robust V12 engine, it combined blistering speed with reliability, making it a favorite in grueling events like Le Mans and the World Sportscar Championship.

This model is hand painted and polished to a beautiful finish and has a sealed body. Resin models are
exceptionally accurate of scale, shape and detail. Each model is created using a variety of production
processes, to achieve this precision. They are produced using a composite material referred to in the
industry as “resin”. Photo etched parts, die-cutting, tampo printing and waterslide decals are often used
for the most authentic replication.
