MERCHANDISE

Just arrived in the Gulf office is the latest offering from Hornby – through their famous Scalextric brand. The first name in electric slot car racing is just bringing out its latest set – the Gulf Racing edition – complete with GT car and Le Mans Prototype, both in a Gulf livery.

As with all Scalextric products it is sturdy and would make a great gift for anyone, especially families with kids. Easy to assemble and guaranteed hours of fun – this set comes complete with a lap counter to stop any arguments as to who has actually won! Of course, once you have the basic track, you can add to it and get hold of new cars to drive on it – pictured here is the ROFGO Mercedes GT3 car that won the Silverstone 24 Hours earlier this year.

Also released this month, crafted by Motormax, is the impressive Gulf Racing Trailer. The 10-wheeler comprises of an open-and-close tailgate, detachable die-cast cab and a working ramp for cars.

On a slightly smaller – 1/63 – scale, Motormax has also produced a series of Gulf trucks, called Gulf Big Rigs, with five colourful different trucks and trailers , which makes an excellent set of collectables.
