This is the AFX 2021 Chevy Camaro ZL1 Wildfire Black-Lime Flame HO Slot Car
Chevy’s 2021 Camaro is more than just a muscle car – it’s the monster of muscle cars. The ZL1’s supercharged V-8 engine breathes a fiery-hot 650 horsepower and brings that bone-rattling thunder muscle car fanatics know and love. Wider, stickier tires that grip track like never before can stop this beast at 70mph in just 143 feet.
The AFX 2021 Camaro ZL1 brings the heat thanks to the powerhouse Mega G+ chassis for smooth, thrilling accuracy and tons of speed. AFX Wild Fire Flames are proprietary custom designs. But we certainly weren’t the first folks to paint flames on the side of a hot rod.
The first flames to appear on a hot rod were literal flames. Captured in a perfectly timed photograph on October 20th, 1938 by the Carroll Photo Company. Driver Fred Friday zipped his car through Gilmore Stadium when his car alighted in flames from a fuel leak. The idea that a car had been driven so furiously as to emit flames inspired hot rod and muscle car fans across the country. Friday survived the race, happily, and totally unaware of what his unique race performance had ignited.
World War II followed swiftly after bringing with it the trend of “nose art” - the decorative painting of an aircraft’s front fuselage. Though originally intended to identify friendly planes, the practice quickly evolved into an expression of individuality. The aircraft “nose art” was showcased to the general public and the idea spread like, well, wildfire.
By the 1950s the custom hot rod craze peaked. Returning veterans were drawn to both the thrill of racing and the new outlet for self-expression. With the booming economy of post-war America, hot rodders and muscle car lovers brought their designs to life with access to custom parts and professional designers.
