AFX Racing Ford GT40 Mkll n.98 Daytona

The Ford GT40 MKIIB #98 played a major role in Ford’s historic triumph at the 1966 Daytona 24 Hours, a victory made even more remarkable as it proved its dominance over Ford’s long-time rival, Ferrari. As one of the three cars in the iconic 1-2-3 Ford finish at Daytona, the #98 stood out as a key contender in that year’s racing season. Driven by Ken Miles and Lloyd Ruby, the GT40 #98 secured its place in history with an unforgettable win.

Powered by Ford’s FE-series 427 big-block V8 engine, the car’s chassis was an exact replica of the original monocoque unibody design used in the GT40 continuation models. It was engineered for exceptional strength and rigidity, with most parts fully interchangeable with those of an original GT40.

As with every AFX recreation, meticulous attention has been given to every detail. The gold Halibrand wheels, asymmetrical livery, and distinctive red “R” taped to the grille perfectly match the car as it appeared when Ken Miles and Lloyd Ruby drove it to victory at the 1966 Daytona 24 Hours.

Don’t miss this unique HO scale tribute to the craftsmanship, power, and legacy of one of the most iconic cars and driver pairings in motorsport history.

CHÂSSIS : Mega G+ SHORT Wheelbase Chassis (1.5″)

Mega G+ Chassis

Smoother, more consistent, and more intuitive than any car we’ve ever built, the Mega G+ chassis is the ultimate driving machine. It runs faster and handles better than the competition and continues AFX’s reign of the most realistic HO cars on earth.

Not only is it up to 35% lighter than any other HO chassis. Having the lowest center of gravity of all competitors means it corners like a dream. But the cherry on top is the ability to create super realistic car bodies thanks to the Mega G+ being the narrowest, lowest chassis ever made.

Still don’t believe us? Here’s the facts...

• Stronger Pick Up Shoes have stronger contact for more consistent power
• The AFX Exclusive Extra-Long Tapered Guide Pin keeps the car on track longer
• Level 30 Neodymium Ground Effects Magnets keep the car glued to the track
• An FN20 Advanced Power Unit is energy efficient, smooth, quiet, and consistent
• The Nylatron Chassis Material has just enough flex for super durability
• High Carbon Power Unit Brushes last longer than composite brushes
• The New Redundant Power Transfer System improved durability and drivability
