GALLERY: Porsche 917 LH

Fly Porsche 917 LH

24hr Le Mans 1971

The ManicSlot Mini Review

Strengths:

• The 917 LH is a popular slot that has a limited collectible status
• Average 'from the box' magnetic performer, (will more than likely require some TLC)
• Striking Gulf livery and classic Le Mans runner
• Very high level of detail
• Excellent paint and decal job, It's hard to beat a Gulf livery
• Once setup correctly, is a fantastic non magnetic runner

Weaknesses:

• The 917 LH (along with most of the Fly classic range) will require some modification and after-market parts if you are to get the most from it
• The 917 LH has some scale and model accuracy issues which are a problem for some slotters

Verdict:

Personally I love the Fly classic range and the Porsche 917 LH is no exception, this is a beautiful looking slot car on the track. Once setup correctly this is one of the fastest non-mag performers on my Carrera plastic track.
