Corvette C6R

The Corvette C6R that won at SPA, now on your track: NSR recreates the #72 of Luc Alphand Aventures

NSR presents reference NSR1181, the Corvette C6R with the livery of the Luc Alphand Aventures team that achieved victory at SPA-Francorchamps during the 2009 Le Mans Series season. The #72 dorsal and the colours of this decoration make the model particularly attractive for both collectors and drivers looking for a high-performance car straight out of the box.

Technical specifications

NSR has equipped this model with technical features typical of its competition range. All data comes from the manufacturer's official specifications:

King 21 Evo motor in anglewinder configuration

The King 21 Evo motor is one of the most recognised units in the NSR catalogue for the GT category. Mounted in an anglewinder position —that is, with the motor angled relative to the rear axle— it achieves a balanced mass distribution that favours stability in corners without compromising acceleration on straights. The 13/31 gear ratio offers a very usable starting point for recreational use and is perfectly adjustable for club environments.

Air System rim and Low Profile guide

The NSR Air System rear rim incorporates a ventilation system that improves tyre grip by uniformly reducing contact pressure. Along with the 4841 Low Profile guide, the combination provides a stable braid pickup and a low profile that adapts well to different track depths, which will be appreciated by those combining tracks from different brands.

Scale and level of detail

Like the rest of NSR's GT car range, the Corvette C6R is manufactured in 1:32 scale. The 22 g body is decorated with the graphics of the Luc Alphand Aventures team as it appeared in the 2009 Le Mans Series edition, with the number #72 clearly visible. The level of detail in the decoration is typical of NSR: clean, with good colour definition and suitable for display.

Track behaviour

With a total weight of 87 g and the anglewinder geometry of the King 21 Evo, the car exhibits predictable behaviour that is easy to control. It is not a model designed exclusively for aggressive tuning: it comes out of the box with a balance that allows enjoyment from the very first moment. Those who wish to go further have a solid starting point: the wide availability of NSR spare parts facilitates any modification or maintenance.

Ideal for…

• Collectors interested in the Le Mans Series and GT prototypes from the 2000s era.
• Club drivers looking for a competitive GT with the King 21 Evo motor as standard.
• Enthusiasts wanting a high-performance car ready to run without initial preparation.
• Fans of the Luc Alphand Aventures team and the history of GT at SPA-Francorchamps.

Points to consider

The 4841 Low Profile guide is optimised for tracks with standard depth rails. If you are using circuits with deeper rails, it may be advisable to check the guide height to ensure optimal contact with the braids. Additionally, the 20 x 11 mm rear tyre provides a good contact footprint, although on very fast tracks it may be worth considering options of different hardness depending on the compound available in the NSR catalogue.

Frequently asked questions

What track systems is the NSR Corvette C6R compatible with?

The 4841 Low Profile guide is compatible with the main rail systems on the market: Scalextric, Ninco, Scaleauto, Carrera and similar. If you have any doubts about specific rail depths, we recommend checking the guide clearance before running.

What motor does it come with as standard and can it be changed?

It includes the King 21 Evo motor in anglewinder configuration. NSR offers a wide range of motors compatible with this chassis, so replacement is straightforward for those who want to adjust performance to their competition category.

What does anglewinder position mean?

In an anglewinder, the motor is positioned at an angle relative to the rear axle. This distinguishes this setup from both the sidewinder (motor parallel to the axle, transverse) and the inline (motor perpendicular to the axle, in line with the car). The anglewinder combines compactness with a good weight distribution.

Is this model suitable for club competition?

Yes. The King 21 Evo motor and the 13/31 gear ratio make it perfectly valid for club GT categories. Depending on the specific regulations, it can be run straight out of the box or with minimal adjustments.

Are spare parts available for this model?

NSR has one of the most comprehensive spare parts catalogs on the market in 1:32 scale: tyres, crowns, pinions, guides, Air System rims, and other components are easy to find, facilitating both maintenance and preparation of the car.

What does the number #72 and the Luc Alphand Aventures decoration represent?

The Luc Alphand Aventures team competed in the GT1 class of the Le Mans Series with a Corvette C6R. The #72 dorsal was declared the winner in the 2009 SPA-Francorchamps round, making this decoration a direct tribute to that victory.

The NSR Corvette C6R ref. NSR1181 reproduces the Luc Alphand Aventures #72 livery, winner at SPA-Francorchamps in the 2009 Le Mans Series. Fitted with the King 21 Evo motor in anglewinder configuration, Air System rear rim, Low Profile guide and a 13/31 gear ratio, this 1:32 slot car offers an outstanding balance of performance and collectability straight from the box. A must-have for GT racing fans and competitive club racers alike.
