Lancer

In 1998 Tecnitoys acquired the Tyco license for the marketing of Scalextric in Spain and debuted with a new model, the Mitsubishi Lancer EVO IV, with three different liveries with references 6000, 6001 and 6002. The model came with lights, four-wheel drive powered by a dual-axle motor and the novelty of a guide with suspension. Variants have been described as "made in Spain" and "made in China". This model with reference 6001, white with #24, bears "ANCAP / RALLY ART" livery and Rally Catalunya-Costa Brava decals. It represents the car with which Trelles / del Buono competed in that rally in 1997.

The Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution was born in 1992 as the "homologation evolution" of the Lancer to replace the Galant VR-4 in rallying. The Evolution IV was launched in August 1996 with a completely redesigned platform and the engine rotated 180° for better weight distribution. Gustavo Trelles and Jorge del Buono "Bicho" obtained 13th position in the 1997 Rally Catalunya-Costa Brava, driving a Lancer EVO III from Mitsubishi Ralliart Germany. The Tecnitoys model comes as an EVO IV but is clearly inspired by this car.
