The Rosso Corsa and Giallo Modena livery of dorsal 02 from AF Corse for the 24H of Spa 2024 arrives in 1/32 scale with the Fantasy Car GT3 chassis from Sideways: Baby Raptor 17K motor in anglewinder configuration, Prospeed medium tyres, and high-fidelity competition finishes.
The AF Corse GT3 at the 24H of Spa 2024, now on your slot track
Sideways presents one of the most recognisable liveries from the Fanatec GT World Challenge Europe in 1/32 scale: the number 02 of AF Corse as it raced in the 24 Hours of Spa-Francorchamps 2024. A striking visual combination —dominant Rosso Corsa with the Giallo Modena arrow running across the bonnet and sides— backed by a mechanical setup designed to perform on the track.
High fidelity decoration and details
The model accurately reproduces the graphic elements that distinguished the car on track. The rear wing features sponsorship from GINION GROUP, the interior sunshade incorporates the Fanatec brand, and the front wheel arch displays the Belgian flag, a direct nod to the Spa-Francorchamps circuit. The logos of Sabelt, Ray-Ban, and Pirelli complete a decoration that conveys the atmosphere of real GT endurance racing.

Track performance
The anglewinder configuration of the Baby Raptor 17K offers a balanced weight distribution that favours cornering and traction out of chicanes, critical points on technical circuits. The combination of hard tyres at the front and Prospeed medium at the rear provides progressive and controllable grip, suitable for those looking to fine-tune the setup as well as for those wanting a car ready to run from the outset. The 11/28 gear ratio places the model in a competitive top speed range without sacrificing response in slow corners.
Ideal for…
This Fantasy Car GT3 is perfectly suited for the club racer competing in modern GT categories who wants a solid base to work on adjustments, as well as for the collector following the Fanatec GT World Challenge Europe who wishes to have one of the most eye-catching GT3s of the 2024 season in their display. The richness of details in the AF Corse livery also makes it an attractive piece for those collecting cars related to major European endurance races.
Points to consider
The anglewinder assembly is different from the more common sidewinder in standard cars: if you are going to make adjustments or change the motor, ensure you have the correct mount for this configuration. The rear Prospeed tyres are known for providing very good grip on clean track; if your track accumulates dust frequently, a prior cleaning will make a difference in the car's performance.
Frequently asked questions
What track systems is this slot car compatible with?
As it is a Sideways model with a standard 1/32 guide, it is compatible with the most common track systems on the market, such as Scalextric and Ninco (universal track). To use it on Sport track (Scaleauto, Slot.it), it may be necessary to change the guide.
What does it mean for the motor to be in anglewinder position?
The anglewinder configuration positions the motor at an angle to the rear axle, unlike the sidewinder (transverse) or inline (longitudinal). This allows for an intermediate weight distribution between both configurations, providing a balance between top speed and corner handling.
Are Prospeed tyres interchangeable with other brands?
Prospeed tyres are an aftermarket component widely available in the slot market. You can replace them with tyres from other brands with the same dimensions (20 × 11 mm rear, 19 × 10 mm front) to adapt the car's performance to your preferences or track type.
Is it a car suitable for club competition or just for recreational use?
Its mechanics are designed to perform on track: Baby Raptor 17K motor, competition tyres, and Fantasy Car GT3 chassis make this model a valid option for modern GT categories in clubs. However, it is also very satisfying for recreational use due to its stability and visual finish.
Does it include any additional accessories or spare parts?
According to the available information, the model is delivered as described, without specified additional accessories. If you need specific spare parts, consult the catalogue of components compatible with the Fantasy Car GT3 chassis.
Does the livery faithfully reproduce the real car from the 24H of Spa 2024?
Yes. The decoration is based on the official livery of the number 02 of AF Corse at the 24 Hours of Spa-Francorchamps 2024, within the Fanatec GT World Challenge Europe, including sponsors, the Belgian flag, and the team's corporate colours.
