Jaguar XJR10 No.61 - 1st Lime Rock 1990

The roar of the miniature Group C: the Jaguar XJR10 no.61 winner at Lime Rock 1990

The Jaguar XJR10 is one of the most recognisable prototypes from the golden era of endurance racing. Developed by Tom Walkinshaw Racing (TWR) for the IMSA GTP championship, this V6 turbocharged beast dominated the 1990 season on North American soil with a combination of reliability, refined aerodynamics, and power. The victory at Lime Rock Park that year —with the number 61 on its flanks— is one of the brightest pages in Jaguar's history in American competition.

Slot.it, the absolute reference in 1:32 scale slot racing, has brought this historic moment to the track with the reference SICA42C, offering collectors and club racers a reproduction that honours both the memory of the race and the technical demands of the modern hobby.

Features and highlights

• Original decoration: authentic livery of the Jaguar XJR10 no.61 as it raced and won at Lime Rock Park in 1990, with all sponsors and period colours.
• Slot.it manufacturing: high-precision plastic body with superior quality screen printing finishes, a distinctive feature of the Italian brand.
• Scale 1:32: standard format compatible with Sport tracks (Scaleauto, Slot.it) and, with the appropriate guide, adaptable to other systems.
• Guide and braids: equipped with the guide and braids specific to the Slot.it system, prepared for stable electrical contact and precise track response.
• Anglewinder motor: anglewinder configuration optimising weight distribution and corner traction, a hallmark of the Slot.it CA range.

Scale and level of detail

The 1:32 scale allows Slot.it to capture all the visual details that make the XJR10 unique: the aerodynamic silhouette of Group C, the side skirts, the sharp nose, and the characteristic decoration of the 1990 IMSA season. The attention to detail in the paint and decals is notably superior to the industry average in this scale.

Track performance

The CA series models from Slot.it are designed to offer an excellent balance between recreational enjoyment and club competition. The anglewinder configuration —with the motor positioned at an angle to the rear axle— contributes to a low centre of gravity and a smooth line through chicanes and fast corners. The factory braids ensure clean electrical driving from the very first moment.

For those wishing to fine-tune the model, Slot.it offers a wide catalogue of compatible spare parts and upgrades: crowns, pinions, tyres, and alternative chassis that allow for scaling the level of preparation according to each club's regulations.

Ideal for…

• Collectors of Group C and IMSA GTP prototypes from the 80s and 90s.
• Slot enthusiasts looking for a ready-to-run model with performance guarantees.
• Club racers wanting a solid starting point to prepare a competitive car.
• Motorsport history enthusiasts wishing to have a piece linked to a real victory in their display case.
