HAS20472 - Hasegawa 1/24 Lamborghini Jota W/Italian Girl Figure
SPECIAL REISSUE ***ESTIMATED ARRIVAL Q3 2024***
The Lamborghini Jota is an Italian racing car that was made in a single unit in 1970. The car was powered by a single 3.9 liter 12-cylinder engine. The Lamborghini Jota was developed by engineer and test driver Bob Wallace as a racing car. Theoretically, the Jota is based on the Lamborghini Miura P 400, but at its core has little to do with it. First of all, it has a body made of completely different materials, which resulted in a significant reduction of materials. The design and dimensions of the car's frame have changed, as has the suspension. The styling of the body has also been corrected - especially its front part. The Jota has the same engine as the Miura, but with added electronically controlled ignition and changed cylinder heads. Finally, a car was created with fantastic for that time performance, capable of accelerating to 320 km / h and accelerating from 0 to 100 km / h in 3.6 seconds! However, due to the company's financial problems, the only copies of the Jota were sold in 1972, and a little later it burned down in an accident.
