Beautiful Blue Metallic with 5 Spoke Silver Rims
AFX continues to honor the lineage of America’s muscle cars with its HO scale 1970 Firebird Formula 400 in striking atoll blue.
Where the ’67 Firebird was engineered featuring a combination of Camaro parts and influence to meet their production deadline, the moment the first Firebirds went to market, development started on the 2nd generation to ensure this time they were all Pontiac. While it did share the F-body platform with the Camaro, the suspension was recalibrated and the steering box moved to improve handling. The doors were lengthened, eliminating the 3/4 windows of the earlier model, and adding to the cars’ Italian-style aesthetic.
Unlike the Shaker scoop that adorned the Trans Am hood, the Formula 400 uses functional twin Ram Air scoops for increased air flow. The engine – a powerful Ram Air III V8 400 cubic inch – offered Trans Am power in a lighter body built for a single purpose: Ultimate performance.
AFX honors this automotive legend with a model that blends historic accuracy and modern slot car technology. Like its full-size counterpart, AFX designed its 1970 Firebird Formula 400 for speed and stability. It sports the AFX Mega G+ chassis, ensuring flawless handling on even the most demanding tracks. The bold metallic paint and hyper realistic detail work make this a must-have for collectors and racers alike.
CHASSIS TYPE: Mega G+ LONG Wheelbase Chassis (1.7″)
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.
Get the feel of driving a real car with a whole new system…Made up of the Mega G+ Chassis, AFX120 Controllers and Exclusive Tri-Power Pack, the Mega G+ Race System is the perfect balance of grip and speed. With decades of slot car innovation, this is the best out of the box slot car system you can buy.
