Rastar 1:14 Ford GT Remote Control Car (Blue) — Officially Licensed
Drive an American racing legend. This officially licensed Rastar 1:14 scale Ford GT remote control car recreates the modern Ford halo supercar — the car Ford built to win Le Mans on the 50th anniversary of the legendary 1966 Ford GT40 victory over Ferrari. The 2016 Le Mans triumph was made famous by the 2019 Hollywood film "Ford v Ferrari" starring Christian Bale and Matt Damon. With only 1,350 of the real cars ever built (each costing around A$770,000), the Ford GT is one of the most exclusive American supercars ever made. This RC version brings that legend to your living room. Featuring manually opening butterfly doors, working LED headlights and taillights, front shock absorption with rear differential mechanism, real rubber tyres, integrated spring suspension, and authentic Ford GT detailing. Recommended for ages 6+.
Officially Licensed by Ford Motor Company
This Rastar 1:14 scale Ford GT is officially licensed by Ford Motor Company and scaled in same proportion according to the original data of the real Ford GT supercar. At 32.8 x 15.7 x 7.8 cm, the model captures the Ford GT's unmistakable low-slung silhouette — the dramatic teardrop cabin, sharp aerodynamic creases, distinctive flying buttresses, and the iconic Ford GT badge. Finished in striking blue (verify your stock — Ford GTs come in heritage racing colours including Heritage White-and-Blue, Liquid Blue, and Race Red). Ready To Run (RTR) right out of the box — just add batteries.
The Modern American Legend — Built to Win Le Mans
The Ford GT isn't just a supercar. It was Ford's tribute to one of the greatest racing storylines in motorsport history.
In June 2016, exactly 50 years after Ford's legendary 1966 Le Mans 1-2-3 finish over Ferrari, Ford returned to Circuit de la Sarthe with the modern Ford GT. The mission: win Le Mans again, in the GTE-Pro class, on the 50th anniversary of one of the most famous victories in racing history. They did it. Ford Chip Ganassi Racing finished 1-3-4 at the 2016 24 Hours of Le Mans, with Joey Hand, Dirk Müller, and Sébastien Bourdais taking the win in the #68 Ford GT.
This wasn't an accident. Ford built the modern Ford GT specifically to make this happen — a road-legal racing weapon designed primarily as a Le Mans contender, with a road version sold to fund the racing programme.
As Seen in "Ford v Ferrari" (2019) 🎬
The original story behind the modern Ford GT became a Hollywood blockbuster. The 2019 film "Ford v Ferrari" — directed by James Mangold, starring Christian Bale as Ken Miles and Matt Damon as Carroll Shelby — dramatised the original 1966 Ford GT40 victory over Ferrari. The film won two Academy Awards and grossed over US$225 million worldwide.
The modern Ford GT in this RC car is the spiritual successor to the GT40 from that movie — built by Ford specifically to recreate the legendary Ford-vs-Ferrari rivalry in the 21st century. For parents and kids who watched the film together, owning the RC Ford GT is owning a piece of motorsport history brought to life by Hollywood.
One of Only 1,350 Ever Made
The real Ford GT is genuinely rare. Just 1,350 examples were produced worldwide between 2017 and 2022. Each one cost approximately US$500,000 (around A$770,000) when new — and Ford selected its buyers by application. You couldn't simply walk into a Ford dealership and order one. Approved buyers were chosen based on brand loyalty, social media reach, and a contractual commitment not to flip the car for two years. This made owning a real Ford GT one of the most exclusive privileges in the supercar world.
This RC version brings that rarefied air to your living room — at A$49.95 instead of A$770,000.
Cutting-Edge American Engineering
The real Ford GT's engineering is genuinely cutting-edge:
-
3.5-litre EcoBoost twin-turbo V6 producing 660 hp — Ford controversially chose a V6 over a V8 to optimise for racing power-to-weight rules
-
Carbon-fibre monocoque chassis — Formula 1-grade construction
-
Active aerodynamics — adjustable rear wing, active suspension that drops the car at speed
- Top speed: 348 km/h (216 mph)
- 0–100 km/h in approximately 3.0 seconds
-
Manufactured by Multimatic in Markham, Ontario, Canada — Multimatic also makes Ford's racing hardware
This RC model captures the Ford GT's purposeful, race-bred design — every line on the car exists for a reason.
Manually Opening Butterfly Doors for Hands-On Play
The Ford GT has the supercar feature kids love: butterfly doors that open upward and outward (a hybrid between scissor doors and conventional doors). This RC version reproduces them faithfully — open the doors manually to reveal a detailed cockpit including steering wheel, dashboard, racing seats, and rearview mirror. The opening doors transform this from a quick race into extended imaginative play.
Full-Function Control with Working LED Lights
27MHz Radio Frequency — What It Means for You
This Ford GT uses a 27.145 MHz radio frequency. Here's what that means in plain language:
-
Perfect for single-car play — the 27MHz frequency reliably controls one car at a time without issues
-
Works at up to ~30 metres range — plenty for indoor or smooth backyard driving
-
The trade-off — multiple 27MHz cars on the same frequency channel can interfere with each other. If you want to race multiple Rastar cars simultaneously, look at our 2.4GHz models (such as the Rastar Ferrari LaFerrari, Lamborghini Sián, McLaren Senna, or BMW Z4 Roadster — all sold separately).
-
For most kids playing solo, 27MHz is completely fine and a more affordable entry point.
We mention this upfront because we believe in honest product information.
Working LED Headlights and Taillights
Working LED headlights and taillights illuminate as the Ford GT moves forward and reverses, adding realistic supercar drama to indoor driving sessions.
Speed and Range
The Ford GT reaches a top speed of approximately 8 km/h with a remote control range of up to approximately 30 metres — plenty of room for living-room races, hallway runs, or backyard fun on smooth surfaces.
Built for Active Play
Front shock absorption combined with a rear differential mechanism delivers a smooth, stable ride. An integrated spring suspension system handles bumps gracefully. Real rubber tyres provide reliable grip and traction on smooth surfaces. The injection-moulded ABS plastic body is durable, scratch-resistant, and made from non-toxic, child-safe materials. Factory-assembled and ready to drive straight out of the box.
