The latest 1/18 Indycar releases from Replicarz Exclusives will be here in a few days.
Above: Arie Luyendyk set the all time one (237.498 mph) and four (236.986 mph) lap records at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway in the #5 Byrd / Treadway Racing Reynard 95I Cosworth XB during qualifying for the 1996 Indianapolis 500. Arie also set the ‘unofficial’ Indy single lap record (239.260 mph) during practice.
These records still stand, nearly 30 years later.
Below: In 1995, Jacques Villeneuve became the first – and only – Canadian driver to win the Indianapolis 500, overcoming a 2 lap penalty in the final 500 before ‘The Split’. Villeneuve drove the #27 Player’s sponsored Team Green Reynard 95I Cosworth XB to victory at Indy, also taking the 1995 CART Champioship before departing to F1 in 1996.
