ACAR Custom Slot Car im Maßstab 1:64 - Porsche Kremer 911S Nürburgring 1971 No 82

Hard to resist! The Kremer Porsche 911S Nürburgring 1970.

For those who have been following my blog the Kremer Porsche does not come as surprise. Porsche has been on the agenda for quite a while. Especially the cars from the 1970s and 1980s. (Not a conscious choice at all.) And Kremer Racing has been a very active part in Racing thru out that period. With a fresh approach on the graphics, their cars would draw some interest. That is why it is hard to resist reproducing the race cars for the h0 racetrack.

The Porsche 911 S with Erwin Kremer / Jürgen Neuhaus came first in their class GT 2.0. While three Porsche 908/03 would finish 1st, 2nd and 3rd. (You can find the h0 replicas of the winning trio in some of the older posts.) The white arrow style ornament on the hood was difficult to reproduce. Detailed research on all the graphics has proven time intensive. But as many times before it was also very interesting. Reproducing the logos and sponsoring for the model has its merits, especially once they fit and look good on the body.

The procedure on the Kremer 911 S was very much the same as with all the others that had be created lately. Some significant changes transformed the AFX Porsche Carrera into a Porsche 911S. Front and rear were altered, mirror and rear spoiler removed. The body was cleaned, primed and painted. After decals were applied the body way protected with clear coat. Wheels by RRR and AFX with some Fuchs inserts by Custom FX on the front. There are many more 911S I would like to transform into h0 slot cars. If it was not for the time, each model is demanding. So far, I like the results, How about you?

The Porsche 911 S is a nice addition to the growing numbers of 1.000 Km Nürburgring cars in my collection. It is possible that we will see more cars of the 1970 and 1971 races being replicate in h0 in the near future.

Porsche at Le Mans 1970 – h0 Slot Car Custom

Porsche 907 and 910 at 24h Le Mans 1970 - the Unknown Heroes

Slot Car Custom Porsche 910 and Porsche 907 24 Hours Le Mans 1970

If you like historic race cars and you also like h0 slot cars, you will not find to many of the iconic race cars ready to buy, collect or race in that scale. There are some Porsche, Ferrari, Ford GT40 and Cobra Daytona’s available, that can be converted into one of the legendary cars to be found on popular classic car meetings these days. To escape the limitations of h0, customizing bodies becomes a necessity. The variation of slot cars available in larger scales can be very tempting. When it comes to track building the size would be a drawback. The combination of the two, modelling slot cars and a slot tracks, offers more options. This is why making unique cars in 1:64 has become fascinating challenge. What can be achieved?

In case of the Porsche 910, 907 or 906 Carrera the TYCO 908 has proven to be a good starting point. The bodies even allow to swop the chassis for the preferred AFX Magnatraction. Modifications on the front wheel wells create a better look. With the rear exhaust removed, altered air intakes and side vents added, the body resembles some of the significant features. Proportions of doors and roof, rear deck lid, head lights have not been changed. With the almost correct graphics the Porsches are a good interpretation of the original race cars.


The growing collection h0 slot cars from the 24 hours Le Mans 1970 was never intended. In the beginning the collection of resin bodies by Ryotaro +R Models

drew my interest. At the time the focus was mainly on the Ferrari 512. The AFX Porsche 917 could be transformed into the race winning car and some of the other teams. Customizing various Porsche 911 on bases of the AFX Porsche 911 Carrera brought up the idea of making some of the interesting Porsche 911S of the race. The 910 and 907 followed. You can also scale the blog for more 24 hrs. Le Mans 1970 slot cars.
