Alle Champ Car Modell Auto Sammler dürfen sich auf das nächste Jahr freuen, denn dann gibt es den neuen Panoz DP01 als Modell zu kaufen. Sie unterschrieben einen Vertrag mit GREENLIGHT COLLECTIBLES für 3 Jahre. Zusammen mit Speedgear (wie immer) werden die Modelle 1:18 und 1:64 im nächsten Jahr zu haben sein. Was genau dabei sein wird:
CHAMP CAR WORLD SERIES INKS THREE-YEAR AGREEMENT WITH
GREENLIGHT COLLECTIBLES
INDIANAPOLIS (October 15, 2007) – Champ Car fans will have something extra to look forward to next season with the announcement that GreenLight Collectibles, Speedgear and the Champ Car World Series have teamed up to produce die-cast replicas of the Series’ new DP01 race car. The die-cast replicas will go on sale in early April.
The 1:18 and 1:64 scale DP01 replicas will include, among others, the 2007 cars of Paul Tracy and Graham Rahal as well as a commemorative 2007 Sebastien Bourdais Newman/Haas/Lanigan Racing #1 McDonald’s car honoring the triple Champion who looks to clinch an unprecedented fourth consecutive title at the next race in Surfers Paradise, Australia. The collection will also include a replica of the first-ever DP01, which served as the Champ Car test car and featured a Troy Lee Designs paint scheme.
The 1:18 replicas, which will measure approximately 11 inches long, will be officially licensed by the Champ Car World Series and will feature a die-cast metal body and chassis, authentic DP01 detailing, real rubber Bridgestone tires, driver figure with authentic helmet graphics, sequential numbering on the base and custom window box packaging. The 1:64 replicas will measure approximately 3 inches long.
Speedgear, Champ Car’s exclusive licensing partner, negotiated the multi-year deal with GreenLight Collectibles, an Indianapolis-based manufacturer of authentic die-cast replicas which produces a wide array of racing and automotive die-cast memorabilia.

EDIT:
ich füge mal den Rohbau sozusagen von GREENLIGHT dazu als Anlage, so wird das Modell im Rohbau aussehen ohne die dazugehörigen Paintjobs
