About the Porsche 911 997 GT3 RSR Flying Lizard #80 S. Neiman / J. Bergmeister / J. van Overbeek 24 Hours of Le Mans 2008 Minichamps 1:43
TL;DR: Minichamps' 1:43 diecast reproduces the #80 Flying Lizard Motorsports Porsche 911 997 GT3 RSR from the 2008 24 Hours of Le Mans, driven by Neiman, Bergmeister and van Overbeek. The body is a sealed zinc casting. A strong piece for a Flying Lizard or Le Mans GT2 collection.
Flying Lizard Motorsports became one of the most successful American privateer GT teams of the 2000s, and its Le Mans campaigns brought a US-based squad genuine credibility on the world's most prestigious endurance racing stage.
Reproducing an American Team's Le Mans Livery
The GT3 RSR body is a sealed one-piece zinc casting, holding the widened arches and front canards that distinguish the RSR homologation. Minichamps tampo-prints the Flying Lizard livery onto the shell, and the process keeps the team's distinctive color scheme sharp along the doors and rear quarters where Le Mans liveries typically carry dense sponsor branding. The rear wing and splitter are separately molded and fitted, giving the correct low, wide GT stance. Paint holds a flat, functional finish, matching how these cars looked through a genuine 24-hour race rather than under studio light.
An American Privateer Entry for a Le Mans Shelf
Flying Lizard's Le Mans entries hold real appeal for American collectors following US teams competing on the international endurance stage. At 1:43, this casting sits well alongside other 2008 GT2-class Le Mans entries to reconstruct that year's competitive field. Keep it out of direct light to preserve the tampo livery and handle it by the underbody to protect the molded wing.
