About the Model Kit Manufacturer: Ebbro Models Scale: 1/20 Material: Plastic Paint: Unpainted Unassembled, Kit do not contain paints and glue. Condition: New in Box Team Lotus pioneered te use of ground effect in the team's Type 78 and Type 79 racing cars. Type 80 followed in 1979, aiming to take even greater advantage of ground effect, only to experience severe "porpoising" or "bow bashing, " a phenomenon in which the car bounces up and down at the first bump on the road. As a solution to the problem, for 1980, Peter Wright came up with the idea of separating the monococque chassis from the downforce-creating body. Peter Wright and Martin Ogilvie thus builg the Type 86 test car on this principle, and discovered that it not only achieved tremendous downforce, but did so without showing any "porpoising." From this was born the Type 88 racing car. This is just one of many great kits from the Ebbro plastic models range!
