Ixo Mitsubishi Lancer WRC Rally de Monte Carlo 2004 1:43 scale G. Panizzi/ H. Panizzi

An Ixo Mitsubishi Lancer WRC Rally de Monte Carlo 2004, driven by: Gilles Panizzi/ Herve Panizzi, in 1:43 scale.







                                 Actual Lancer WRC
From the Net:
The Mitsubishi Lancer WRC is a World Rally Car built by Ralliart, Mitsubishi
Motors' motorsport division, to compete in the World Rally Championship. The
previous Lancer Evolution series were homologated for the Group A class, and
their competitiveness against World Rally Cars from other manufacturers was
therefore limited.
The Lancer WRC04 continued with the 4G63 engine, mounted to a 5-speed
semi-automatic transmission and a new all-wheel drive system co-developed by
Ricardo Consulting Engineers and Mitsubishi Motors Motorsports (MMSP). The
bodywork was subjected to extensive aerodynamic testing at the Lola Cars wind
tunnel. The front brakes were upgraded to 8-piston calipers clamping 370 mm (15
in) discs.
The lead Lancer WRC04 in the 2004 World Rally Championship was driven by
ex-Peugeot driver Gilles Panizzi, with his brother Hervé as co-driver.
