About the actual car
In 1994, the F2 kit car regulations were set for naturally aspirated engines up to 2 liters and 2WD only, but the scope of modifications was wider than the Group A cars of the time, and several manufacturers came forward to compete. One of them was the Peugeot 306 Maxi. It was a rally car developed by Peugeot of France in 1995. It was a FF 2WD car equipped with an inline 4-cylinder 2-liter naturally aspirated engine in the front. The highly tuned engine is said to have produced 250 horsepower, and to take advantage of that power, it was equipped with an X-Track sequential gearbox with a 7-speed cross ratio. Combined with a lightweight body weighing 960kg, the car delivered sharp driving performance. In tarmac rallies, it showed speed that threatened turbocharged four-wheel-drive machines, and in 1996 and 1997, it won the French national championship.
The Peugeot 306 Maxi is reproduced in 1/24 scale.
