The Ferrari horse and the Red Bull beasts
team up on the Italian “azzurro” blue background
SCX® PRESENTS THE FERRARI 360 GTC
Experience the lightness of the Ferrari from the 24-hour Daytona race on your SCX® tracks.
This time SCX® brings us the Ferrari 360 GTC, a racing car which is absolutely up-to-the-minute in both lines and decoration, with a largely metallic blue “azzurro” background and the striking Red Bull beasts featuring even more prominently than the Italian manufacturer's very
own prancing horse.
There are four air intakes to be found at the business end of this Ferrari from SCX ®, two large ones at the front and two rather smaller ones at the sides. Between the two front air intakes is the “Be Racing” logo together with the race number 73, and above them a small Dunlop logo.
The two bulls head to head in the Red Bull logo loom large on the bonnet, with the car's race number appearing once more at the side. The orange headlights grab the attention immediately.
At the top of the windscreen of this Ferrari 360 GTC is a dark blue strip with ACXIOM on it in white letters, and below this is the single windscreen wiper. Almost all of the roof is taken up by a large number 73 in red, except for a strip advertising CASTILLO in yellow just in front of the rear window.
The Red Bull once again dominates the side view of this SCX ® model, in this case facing the number 73, both motifs in red on the drinks brand's yellow background along with other smaller logos. On the side, underneath the bull, is a large air intake and the Ferrari crest appears just in front of the door.
The wheel feature the Dunlop logo and grey spokes. The names of the four drivers in the team are shown in a discreet size over the side window, together with the flags of each of their nationalities.
The rear end of this Ferrari 360 GTC is also highly attractive. In addition to the powerful spoiler with the words ‘...gives you wings’ there are four round lights, and between them a large number 73 in yellow, with the prancing horse in the centre.
At the bottom of the bumper are two Red Bull logos at the sides and a Remus one in the space for the number plate. A look through the rear window of this SCX ® car reveals the engine, and in the cabin itself the driver is featured, together with the anti-roll bars protecting him. Overall,
this is a Ferrari packed with detail, one to enjoy before you even put it on the track. It looks as good as it performs.
Track Trials
The Ferrari 360 GTC is a spectacular gran turismo which fully meets the expectations which are always aroused by cars from this Italian manufacturer. A wide rear end, a generous chassis length and no rear overhang (i.e. the car ends at the axle assembly) make every part of this car
useful in performance terms.
The overall weight is the factor which makes some control necessary in driving; taking bends at high speed may be risky if you are over-eager.
Driving with the car centred in the lane and keeping an eye on how the rear end behaves are the keys to clocking up the best times with a GT which certainly meets requirements in terms of pace and a safe drive. A well-balanced model which is enjoyable to drive.

The Real Ferrari 360 GTC
The Ferrari 360 GTC is approved by the Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile (FIA) to race in the GT Championship. It weighs 1100kg, the minimum allowed. This lightness is achieved by using different composite materials to cut down the weight of the original parts without sacrificing strength.
The Ferrari 360 GTC has a centrally-mounted 3.6-litre 90-degree V8 engine delivering 445 horsepower at 8,750rpm. The six-speed sequential-type gearbox and rear-wheel drive make this sports car a fearsome opponent on the racetrack.
The model reproduced here by SCX ® belongs to the ‘Be Racing’ team, which finished sixth at the 24 hours of Daytona in 2004 and was driven by the Austrians Philipp Peter, Dieter Quester and Klaus Engelhorn and the Italian Andrea Montermini.
The 24 hours of Daytona is a GT endurance race held on a mixed route at the Daytona International Speedway in the United States. The race has been held since 1966, in late January or early February.
The 24-hour format has been used ever since 1966, except in 1972 when the length was cut to six hours due to the oil crisis. The 24 hours of Daytona has formed part of the World Sportscar Championship and the IMSA GT Championship, and is currently part of the Rolex Sports Car Series.
Ferrari, Ford and Lexus have been the most successful manufacturers in this race, with five, four and three wins respectively. The driver who has won the most times is Hurley Haywood, who came first in the race in 1973, 1975, 1977, 1979 and 1991.
