Vseries. LMH 24H. leMans 2023 no.311 Pro Anglewinder RT4

The #311 from Le Mans 2023 takes to the track in slot format with all its competition mechanics.

The LMH (Le Mans Hypercar) category represents the pinnacle of current endurance motorsport, and the number 311 that raced in the 2023 24 Hours of Le Mans is one of those cars that remains in the memory of any endurance fan. This slot version of the V-series LMH 24H Le Mans 2023 nº311 is not limited to reproducing the livery: it comes prepared and assembled to perform from the first lap, with a technical specification designed for speed championships and intensive track use.

Highlighted technical features

The mechanical assembly revolves around the Pro in-flex RT4 soft chassis, made from a low-stiffness grey composite. This type of chassis allows the body and the running gear to work almost independently, absorbing circuit imperfections without transferring vibrations to the rear axle. The result is a car that keeps all four wheels in contact with the track in almost any condition.

• Chassis: Pro in-flex RT4 soft (grey), fully assembled.
• Motor: SC-0029 at 22,500 rpm, mounted in Anglewinder configuration (motor at an angle to the rear axle).
• Motor mount: RT4 Offset -1mm, lowering the centre of gravity and improving cornering stability.
• Guide: Advanced with screw SC-1608B, for precise and consistent corner entry.
• Axles: Hardened steel of 2.38 mm.
• Front wheels: Lightweight plastic.
• Rear wheels: High-precision aluminium.
• Tyres: High-grip RT compound.

Anglewinder configuration: what it brings to the track

The Anglewinder setup positions the motor at a specific angle to the rear axle, allowing for a combination of some advantages of the Sidewinder —greater mass over the rear axle— with a more compact profile within the body. In practice, this translates to smooth transmission, favourable weight distribution, and a very direct throttle response, especially in medium and long radius corners. It is a highly valued configuration in speed championships where the consistency of corner exits makes the difference.

Track behaviour

The combination of the soft RT4 chassis with the Offset -1mm motor mount and RT compound tyres offers a well-balanced equilibrium between grip and manoeuvrability. The advanced guide with screw provides bite on corner entry without penalising fluidity in quick transitions. The aluminium rear wheels contribute to more stable rotation and reduce the possibility of imbalances due to manufacturing tolerances.

The SC-0029 motor at 22,500 rpm provides sufficient power for speed circuits without becoming unmanageable, facilitating setup work and reducing wear on braids and tyres during long sessions.

Ideal for…

• Club drivers competing in speed championships with soft chassis regulations.
• Enthusiasts who want a ready-to-run car without having to assemble or set it up from scratch.
• Collectors of the 24 Hours of Le Mans looking for a replica with a competitive spirit, not just for display.

Aspects to consider

As this is a model assembled and prepared for competition, it comes adjusted with a specific specification. If you plan to integrate it into a championship with its own regulations, check that the SC-0029 motor and RT4 chassis are within the permitted categories before registering it. The RT compound of the tyres may require a small break-in period to achieve optimal performance on track.

Frequently asked questions

Does this car come assembled or do I need to assemble it?

It comes fully assembled and ready to run. No prior assembly is necessary.

What type of track does it need to operate?

It features an advanced guide with screw, compatible with Sport track (Scaleauto, Slot.it) and universal track (Scalextric, Ninco). Always check the guide measurement with your track system before running.

What is the difference between an Anglewinder motor and a Sidewinder?

In the Sidewinder, the motor is parallel to the rear axle (transverse). In the Anglewinder, the motor is mounted at an angle to that axle, allowing for a lower profile and a different mass distribution within the body.

Can I change the motor for one with higher rpm?

The RT4 Offset -1mm mount accepts motors with the same format as the SC-0029. Before increasing the rpm, ensure that your championship regulations allow it and that the rest of the running gear can handle it without compromising reliability.

Do the RT compound tyres need prior preparation?

It is not mandatory, but as with any high-grip compound, a few laps of progressive warming help the rubber reach its optimal working temperature and offer maximum performance from the start of the run.

Is it suitable only for competition or also for recreational use?

It can be perfectly used in recreational sessions, although its configuration is clearly oriented towards competition. On club or home tracks in good condition, the driving experience is also very rewarding in recreational mode.
