The 333SP is one of my favourite 90s era sports prototypes. I saw "Mad" Max Papis run one at Watkins Glen - you could hear that thing almost all around the track (probably could if you were to stand in the center of the infield). Because of it's not being run in many liveries, I suspect that any company making a model of it would not be putting a lot of effort into it. The SCX model kind of bears this out as the model is slightly less than accurately modelled or finished. But it is one that I have had my eye on regardless. I just never pulled the trigger due to the fact that the only class of cars that it could "historically" compete with are the Slot.it Group C / IMSA cars, for which my local club has a class (stock - can change rear tires only). Getting the SCX to run with them would be a whole other story. I am sure that the 3D chassis, once equipped with similar running gear as a stock Slot.it Group C / IMSA car, will put your 333SP on even terms.
