About the Dodge Viper GTS-R #61 Team Oreca S. Ayari / P. Gache 24 Hours of Le Mans 1997 Minichamps 1:43

TL;DR: Minichamps' 1:43 diecast Dodge Viper GTS-R reproduces Team Oreca's #61 car from the 1997 24 Hours of Le Mans, driven by S. Ayari and P. Gache. The sealed body holds the wide GT bodywork in full detail. This is a used model, its box showing traces of storage.

Team Oreca fielded multiple Vipers at the 1997 Le Mans, and this #61 sister car documents another face of that multi-entry American GT effort.

A Sealed Body Holding Wide GT Proportions

The GTS-R's flared arches and low nose suit a sealed one-piece casting, and this piece holds the wheel-arch extensions and bonnet power dome as continuous surfaces without any hinge widening the panel gaps. Minichamps applies the #61 sponsor livery with clean tampo registration, distinct from the sister #62 car's own graphics package despite sharing the same underlying bodywork. Zinc alloy construction gives the small model genuine weight, and the wide racing tyres sit correctly proportioned against the flared arches that mark the GTS-R's GT-class specification.

A Multi-Car Le Mans Entry

Running several cars at Le Mans was a common strategy for a team like Oreca, spreading mechanical risk across multiple entries while giving different driver pairings a chance at class results. This #61 car, driven by S. Ayari and P. Gache, formed part of that broader 1997 Viper GTS-R effort, distinct from the #62 sister entry in its specific driver lineup and livery details even as both ran the same GT-specification bodywork.

This is a used piece, and its box shows the traces of storage typical of a private collection; the casting itself is unaffected. Displayed as a pair with the #62 Oreca Viper, this model completes a two-car record of the team's 1997 Le Mans GT class campaign.
