First look at Revell Audi R10

[Zoom Zoom]

Looks pretty good so far, this is apparently a first-round test shot of the diesel-powered LeMans winner.

Translated by Google from German to English: With the AUDI R10 V12 TDI Le-Mans presents Revell on a scale 1:24 the winner vehicle which to history wrote. For the first time a Diesel this legendary long-distance running triumphed. The so-called “roofridge Shots” look already very good, so that from the standard model very much is to be expected.

Looks like it has the potential to make a nice replica.

That it does and for a fraction of what resins would usually cost; between the R10, the R8 supercar, and the 599 GTB, Revell Germany is doing a fantastic job scratching my itches this year :D

If I were Scalemotorsports, I'd ditch the planned LeMans Miniatures R10 detail kit and go for the gold w/this kit. I'm sure the Revell R10 caught them completely off guard.

:cool: Too Cool!!!! I know I will have to build one of these kits for our show. I also see lots of kit bash in this kits future. You have to know that Matthew Wells is a little Green around the gills over this kit coming out. I hope is detail kit fits the plastic kit. I would rather pay about $ 100 to 125 for a detailed kit of the R10 in plastic than over $150 for the resin kit. I guess Al Roberts can ask Matthew at the NNL East what his plans are with the Revell kit in the pipeline.:D

OK, where do I get one of them thar "roofridge shots"?

Looks nice, 599, SA, R8, and R10? And I wanted a Fairmont and a Topaz.

Maisto has a 599 out in red and blue, rumor sez, but I'll never see it here in TX. Has Satanic cult icon wheels. Challenge wheels in short supply, so all US orders for April build on are the star wheels. Any good replacements for the Challenge wheels guys?

BTW, would you guys allow a Texan, a Montanan, and a Nebraskan into the NNL? Takes months to clear schedule, but I'm thinking about it. What part of town is it in?

Pics for the lazy ;)

Not any good alternative challenge type wheels in large enough diameter or that exact style spoke.

[Eric Cole]

Sweet! I'll have to build one of those after spending this weekend in Sebring, for sure!

Hannants (GB) now has the Revell Audi R10 TDI listed in their new arrivals. It arrived on June 15th (how appropriate).
