1964 East African Safari Rally Winner – Peter Hughes and Bill Young.

The East African Safari Rally is considered one of the most, if not the most, gruelling auto race in the world.  It was, and still is to some extent, the testing ground for reliability in production cars.  Up to 90 percent of the cars entered in the race never finish.

The course itself has varied from year to year, averaging from 3,100 to or 4,000 miles in length, originally travelling though Kenya, Tanzania, and Uganda.  Since 1974, the rally has stayed within the borders of Kenya due to political unrest in the other countries.  Nairobi is traditionally the start and finish point for the rally, as well as often being the midpoint where the rally's big loop stages met.

The Lotus Cortina is a welcome introduction to the Scalextric range.  The car driven by Jim Clark is perhaps the most iconic and is the first livery option.

This car is the first Classic car to have the Digital Plug Ready system for quick upgrade to Scalextric Digital with the C8515 Easyfit digital chip.
