Porsche 935 #66 1981 Nürburgring J. Mass in 1:18 scale
This is the Porsche 935 #66 1981 Nürburgring J. Mass in 1:18 scale by MCG.
The Porsche 935 #66 that raced at the 1981 DRM (Deutsche Rennsport Meisterschaft) Nürburgring event was campaigned by the celebrated Joest Racing outfit and driven by experienced German driver Jochen Mass, a veteran of Formula 1 and sports car racing who’d already enjoyed success with Porsche through the 1970s. The powerful Group 5 turbocharged 935 was known for its raw speed and aerodynamics, and at the Nürburgring 300 km DRM race on the Nordschleife, Mass put this chassis near the front — qualifying and race pace were competitive enough for a 2nd-place finish in Division I against tough competition, underscoring both his skill and the 935’s strength on one of motorsport’s most demanding circuits. What set this Nürburgring round apart was the brutal challenge of the Nordschleife layout itself — a nearly 15-mile course of elevation changes, blind crests, and variable conditions that rewarded car balance and driver precision far more than the flatter, more predictable circuits elsewhere in the championship.
This model is hand painted and polished to a beautiful finish and has a sealed body. These diecast
models are exceptionally accurate of scale, shape and detail. Interior detail is hand assembled and easily
visible. Photo etched parts, die-cutting, tampo printing and waterslide decals are often used for a most
authentic replication.
