1976 Ferrari 512 BB DAYTONA Scale 1:43 Made In Italy Burago

BB512

El 365 GT4 BB se actualizó como BB 512 en 1976, resucitando el nombre del Ferrari 512 anterior. El nombre "512" se refiere al motor de 5 litros y 12 cilindros del automóvil; una desviación de la práctica establecida de Ferrari de nombrar los coches de carretera de 12 cilindros (como el 365 BB) según su cilindrada.

El motor se amplió a 4943 cc,​ con una relación de compresión aumentada de 9,2:1. La potencia se redujo ligeramente a 360 hp, mientras que un embrague de doble disco gestionaba el par adicional y aligeraba el esfuerzo a ejercer sobre el pedal. El cárter seco evitaba la falta de aceite en las curvas pronunciadas. El chasis permaneció inalterado, pero los neumáticos traseros más anchos (en lugar de los 365 del mismo tamaño) significaron que la vía trasera creció 63 mm.

Los detalles externos diferenciadores incluyeron un nuevo deflector delantero inferior, incorporado en el parachoques. Un conducto NACA en el lateral mejoraba la refrigeración del sistema de escape. En la parte trasera ahora había dos luces y tubos de escape a cada lado, en lugar de unidades triples como en el 365 GT/4 BB.5

Se produjeron 929 unidades del BB 512.

Uno de los pocos modelos que tengo en la escala 1:43 y es un Burago Ferrari 512 BB DAYTONA.

1972 Lotus 72D Emerson Fittipaldi #8 F1 1:43

From Wikipedia:

The Lotus 72 is a Formula One car designed by Colin Chapman and Maurice Philippe of Lotus for the 1970 Formula One season.
 The car was developed during 1971 by Tony Rudd who had formerly worked at BRM. He worked especially on redesigning the rear suspension and modified the rear wing to produce more downforce. Fittipaldi struggled during the season but scored good results and finished a respectable sixth, whilst the following season was much better. The development work done behind the scenes helped him become the youngest world champion in F1's history in 1972 winning five races in the 72, whilst Lotus again won the constructors' championship. The car now sported a striking paintscheme of black and gold; Imperial Tobacco had introduced a new brand, and decided to increase exposure and provide more funds to Lotus as part of the deal. Lotus was now sponsored by John Player Special cigarettes.

1971 Brabham BT-34 Graham Hill 1:43

The Brabham BT34 was a Formula One racing car designed by Ron Tauranac, and used by Brabham during part of the 1971 and 1972 Formula One seasons.

In 1971, Jack Brabham sold his share of the team to co-owner and designer Ron Tauranac. Englishman Graham Hill was signed to drive the BT34 and Tauranac also signed Australian Tim Schenken to drive the older Brabham BT33. Tauranac designed the BT34, which was nicknamed the 'lobster claw', as derived from its twin radiators (claw) mounted ahead of the front wheels. Only one BT34 was built for Hill.

Brabham used the BT33 in the 1971 South African Grand Prix. The BT34 made its debut at Spain, and Hill retired with steering issues. The Englishman crashed at the Monaco Grand Prix. Hill finished tenth at Holland and retired at the French Grand Prix with a broken oil pipe. The start of Britain was a shambles, with a bungled flag drop causing a crash between Hill and Jackie Oliver (McLaren), for which Oliver was fined £50. Hill finished ninth at the German Grand Prix. Hill finished fifth at Austria and retired at the Italian Grand Prix with a broken gearbox. Hill crashed at a wet race in Canada. The Englishman finished seventh at the United States Grand Prix.

Brabham finished the season in ninth place in the Constructors' Championship, with five points, scored by Schenken in the Brabham BT33. Only a team's best place finish in any one race counted towards the constructors' championship. Hill's fifth place at the Austrian Grand Prix did not count towards the final points total as Schenken finished third.

At the end of the year, Tauranac, an engineer by choice, started to feel his Formula One budget of £100,000 was a risk he could not afford to take on his own and searched around for an experienced business partner. He sold Brabham for £100,000 at the end of the year to Bernie Ecclestone, former manager of Jochen Rindt and former owner of Connaught Engineering. Tauranac stayed on to design the cars and run the factory.
