AFX Audi R18 #7 Black Mega G+ HO Slot Car

This is the AFX Racing Audi R18 #7 Black Mega G+ HO Slot Car. With a stunning red and black paint scheme on this new, beautifully crafted body, the R18 is a welcome addition to any AFX race set.

2016 was Audi’s last year contesting the World Endurance Championship. That year’s R18 was arguably the most fearsome weapon produced in 18 years of competition and 13 Le Mans wins. Beautiful in a brutish way, it is wonderfully efficient aerodynamically.

And the car’s aerodynamics made it a singular challenge for AFX when creating the body in 1/64th scale. In fact, this is the most complex body we have ever made with 15 full depth body openings, way more than we or anyone else has ever done. But the payoff comes when the spectacular body and dramatic graphics are combined in a stunning new HO beauty from AFX

Because of the Mega G+ chassis, only AFX can bring it to you. With the lowest, narrowest chassis ever made in this scale, the correct proportions can be maintained along with deep aerodynamic channeling which can’t be done with any other chassis.

The black presentation livery was the way the car was presented to the press in 2015 and they were stunned to see that Audi had abandoned their historic shades of grey and silver livery. But when the car actually showed up to race, it had changed back.

Oh yeah, it’s also wonderfully drivable, fast and fun!

What is the Mega G+ Race System?
It is a Slot Car system that delivers the perfect balance of grip and speed. The result is a slot car set that is easier to learn and easier to drive at the limit so you have more fun fast and keep having fun longer.

We achieved this by redesigning our famous Mega-G chassis, designing a new power unit and precisely mating it to our upgraded AFX120 controller and our exclusive Tri-Power Pack. With decades of slot car innovation and over a year of experimentation behind it, we believe the Mega G+ Race System is the best out of the box slot car system you can buy.

Mega G+ Chassis
This new chassis is the heart of the Mega G+ Race System. It is not just faster and better handling than the competition, now it is even smoother, more consistent, more intuitive and more fun to drive than any car we’ve ever built.
