  • It Was an Englishman, Louis S. Sanson, Who Designed and Developed the Interlagos Circuit, Which Opened Its Gates in 1940
    It was an Englishman, Louis S. Sanson, who designed and developed the Interlagos circuit, which opened its gates in 1940. The area was sparsely populated at the time, close to the two great water reservoirs of the city (hence the name, ‘between the lakes’) and the plans were quite ambitious including a hotel and a spa. Only the circuit was built but, of course, not in its present configuration. On May 12 1940, the track was inaugurated with 7.900 meters by then. With nearly 15,000 spectators watching, Arthur Nascimento Jr. won the race driving an Alfa Romeo. Our very beloved Chico Landi arrived in second place driving a Maserati. He kept racing at the circuit until his retirement in 1974. The first international race was held in 1947 and the winner, the Italian Achille Varzi also drove an Alfa Romeo, Chico Landi arrived in second place in his Maserati. Thirty-two years after the first race, on March 30, 1972, fifty thousand spectators saw Carlos Reutemann win the first modern Formula 1 race at the Interlagos circuit in Bernie Ecclestone’s Brabham. In the next year, Brazil definitely joined the selected group of countries on the calendar of the FIA Formula 1 World Championship. Many people think that Interlagos made it possible for motorsport to develop in the country offering a world class circuit for the various new categories that needed a home. In 1980, the Brazilian Grand Prix moved to Rio de Janeiro seeking better conditions and there were rumors that Interlagos would be turned into a housing project.

    INTRODUCTION Thank you for purchasing our catalogue, you now own the worlds largest currently available Ho - 1/32nd - 1/24th scale slot car body list, together with full up-to-date wheelbase data list. THE BIRTH OF BETTA & CLASSIC In the early years, back in 1956, when model car racing was in its infant stages the norm was to race not slot cars, but rail cars, which ran on rails rather than in a slot. These cars were made by the purist scale model maker, whose interest was to scale looks rather than to achieve out and out speed. In those early years bodies were made out of balsa wood by individuals spending many hours making miniature replica's of the cars they most loved. Some were obviously made to a very high standard, whilst others remained to be very average to say the least, depending on the individual’s abilities. So came about the first real sighting of a pure 1/32nd scale body shell produced in England and made by a certain, now world famous individual namely "Charlie Fitzpatrick", the founder of shells. He was able to make models of immense quality and, using his skills in fiberglass molding, was able to produce for the first time ever scale replicas of many, many racing cars for the rail racer and, as slot racing took over, the slot racer. As competition became more and more serious the need to make cars go that little bit quicker became more and more apparent. Bodies began to appear on the market made from a thin plastic material, at first being manufactured by the Americans.
