Tamiya Model Kit --- Walter Wolf WR1 1977 F1 Car - 20064
Walter Wolf Racing was
founded in 1977 by Canadian businessman Walter Wolf and his team's WR1
competed from 1977 until the 1978 Monaco GP. Driven by Jody Scheckter,
the WR1 won on its debut at the 1977 Argentina GP, which was a great
accomplishment as it was the first race for both the team and car. The
WR1, created by Hesketh Racing designer Harvey Postlethwaite, was light
and considerably compact. Four WR1s were made and designated with
chassis numbers WR1-WR4. They were all basically the same but depending
on the course, two kinds of wheelbases were prepared. J. Scheckter also
won the Monaco and Canadian GPs and claimed 2nd in the 1977 drivers'
championship.
