Description

The Brabham BT52 was Gordon Murray’s answer to the 1983 flat-bottom rules: a slim, dart-shaped car with its weight pushed rearwards and BMW’s 1.5-litre M12/13 four-cylinder turbo behind the driver. The revised BT52B arrived mid-season, and with it Nelson Piquet became the first driver to win the World Championship with a turbocharged engine.

At Brands Hatch two weeks later, Piquet won the 1983 European Grand Prix ahead of Alain Prost’s Renault and Nigel Mansell’s Lotus, cutting Prost’s championship lead to just two points before the final round. GP Replicas captures the No.5 Brabham BT52B in 1:12 scale as a hand-built, sealed resin model.

Understanding Scale

The scale of a model is its size as a proportion to the real-life item. For instance, a 1:18 scale model means that every 1 unit of measurement on the model equals 18 units on the real item. If you divide the real item's size by 18, you'd get the size of the 1:18 model. Please note that models can vary slightly in size, as not all real-life items, like cars or planes, have the same dimensions.

Model Cars:

  • 1:12 scale: ~38 cm or 15 inches
  • 1:18 scale: ~25 cm or 10 inches
  • 1:24 scale: ~18 cm or 7 inches
  • 1:43 scale: ~10 cm or 4 inches
  • 1:64 scale: ~7 cm or 2.75 inches
  • 1:76 scale: ~6 cm or 2.3 inches
