1984 - 1000km Nürburgring / n7 - H. Pescarolo, S. Johansson, A. Senna

The Porsche 956 #7 of Senna, Pescarolo and Johansson at the 1984 Nürburgring 1000 km, now in your collection

There are races that transcend the result and become legend. The 1984 Nürburgring 1000 km is one of them, partly because among the drivers of the Porsche 956 number 7 was a certain Ayrton Senna, who that same year was dominating the European Formula 3000 with an authority that already anticipated what was to come. He shared the car — in this case, a prototype — with Henri Pescarolo, an unquestionable veteran of Le Mans, and Stefan Johansson, whose F1 career was about to take off. An extraordinary line-up on one of the most demanding circuits in the world.

Slot.it has captured that moment with the reference SICA09M, integrating it into its Porsche 956 line, one of the most iconic Group C prototypes in motorsport history.

Features and Highlights

• Porsche 956 body decorated with the livery of number 7 corresponding to the 1984 Nürburgring 1000 km edition.
• Drivers represented: Henri Pescarolo, Stefan Johansson and Ayrton Senna, a trio of immense historical and collectible value.
• Manufacturer: Slot.it, reference SICA09M, within its established family of Group C prototypes in 1/32 scale.
• High-fidelity finishes, with graphics of the original decoration reproduced with the level of detail characteristic of the Italian brand.
• Compatible with Sport track (Slot.it, Scaleauto) and adaptable to other systems such as Scalextric, Ninco or Carrera via interchangeable guide.

Scale and Level of Detail

The Slot.it Porsche 956 in 1/32 scale is one of the reference models in the slot world for those seeking historical accuracy and on-track performance at the same time. The body reproduces the proportions of the real prototype, and the decoration of this unit — colours, sponsors and car number — is taken directly from the event documentation. For the collector, it is a piece with its own identity: it is not "a generic 956", it is the car from that race, from that crew.

On-Track Performance

Slot.it models based on the Porsche 956 are known for their stability and balance between speed and control. The technical plastic chassis, ceramic magnet motor, and the guide-braid set from the brand provide predictable response both on club circuits and more demanding home tracks. If you already have experience with other models from the brand, you will find the usual behaviour: effective from the first moment, with room for improvement if you want to fine-tune the setup.

Ideal for…

• Collectors of Group C prototypes and the golden era of Le Mans and endurance racing of the 1980s.
• Slot enthusiasts looking for models with real history behind them, not just a generic competition car.
• Ayrton Senna fans who want to expand their collection beyond Formula 1, with one of his rare appearances in endurance racing.
• Club competitors who value Slot.it's technical reliability as a starting point.

Aspects to Consider

As with all Slot.it models, the guide and braids are prepared for Sport track, used by the brand itself and by Scaleauto. If your track is universal (Scalextric, Ninco), you will need to replace the guide with a compatible one, something simple with the adapters available on the market. The model comes factory-ready to run; if you seek competitive performance, Slot.it offers a complete catalogue of specific spare parts and upgrades for its cars.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this model suitable for Scalextric tracks?

The model comes with a guide for Sport track as standard. To use it on Scalextric or Ninco tracks (universal track), simply change the guide for a compatible profile one. It is a straightforward operation that does not require modifying the chassis.

What makes this car special from a collectible standpoint?

The combination of drivers is unique: Pescarolo, a Le Mans veteran, Johansson, with immediate potential in F1, and above all Senna, who that year was the most promising driver in the world. It is one of his very few appearances in endurance racing, making this reference a singular piece within any collection.

Does Slot.it offer specific spare parts for this model?

Yes. Slot.it maintains a very complete catalogue of spare parts for its cars: motors, crown gears, pinions, braids, guides and chassis. You can find compatible parts for this model in our store.

What type of motorisation does this Porsche 956 have?

Slot.it models from the 956 family typically feature an anglewinder configuration, with the motor angled relative to the rear axle. We recommend checking the official technical sheet from Slot.it to confirm the exact configuration of this specific reference.

Is it suitable for racing in clubs or just for display?

Slot.it designs its models to perform on track, not just to look good in a display case. This car can run perfectly in club sessions and, with some basic setup adjustments, compete with confidence. That said, the livery and the history it represents also make it equally valuable as a collector's piece.

The Slot.it SICA09M Porsche 956 #7 brings to life one of the most remarkable driver line-ups in 1980s endurance racing: Henri Pescarolo, Stefan Johansson and Ayrton Senna at the 1984 Nürburgring 1000 km. A must-have for Group C collectors and Senna fans alike, this 1/32 scale slot car delivers both historical accuracy and on-track performance.
