In 1981 Rondeau finally engaged 5 cars; 3 “new” M379C in category 6 and 2 in GTP category to put into play his title of 1980. Otis, the world’s leading lift manufacturer, joined the Sarthe team for this new adventure. The brand wanted to develop the image of a 24-hour service… It sponsors the #24 car driven by Jean Rondeau and Jean-Pierre Jaussaud as well as the #7 Rondeau 379 CL in GTP. It is the last in Group 6 to give up after 58 laps. The car became more and more dangerous to drive and the retirement is formalized at 23:40.

1:32 Scale model of a Rondeau M379C decorated in highly detailed racing livery as seen at the 1981 Le Mans 24hr. This model features lots of expertly applied details as based on the prototype. A powerful motor has been fitted to this model making it a great addition to your slot car collection.
