It is perhaps the most powerful racing car to attack a road course; the most powerful racing car designed to travel more than a 1/4-mile at a time: the Porsche 917/30.
Its all-conquering twin-turbo flat-12 engine produced a reliable 1,100 bhp at 7,800 rpm and 19 psi of boost. For short bursts, the pilot could command a staggering 1,500 bhp by turning up the boost to a piston-melting 32 psi with the twist of a knob. Accompanying all this power is the handling of an F1 car!
Getting down close to our precision-engineered 1:18 scale Porsche replica will mesmerize even the most serious collector. It is so intricate you will swear that you can hear the thundering roar of the 5.4-liter power plant that lives within this classic Porsche Can-Am demon!
Special features include full opening parts to showcase an unprecedented level of furious detail: fully wired and plumbed flat-12 twin-turbo engine, water and oil cooling radiators in photo-etch, fully detailed cockpit, water pipes, hydraulic hoses, electrical wires, and much, much more...
