The 1990 24 Hours of Le Mans marked a defining moment in Mazda’s long-term commitment to endurance racing, with the distinctive Mazda 767B representing the brand in the challenging Group C2 category. Entered by Mazda, the rotary-powered prototype competed at the legendary Circuit de la Sarthe in one of the most demanding eras of sports car endurance racing.

The Mazda 767B featured the brand’s signature 4-rotor 13J Wankel rotary engine, delivering high-revving performance and a unique engineering character that set it apart from traditional piston-powered rivals. In the 1990 Le Mans entry, the car driven by Yoshimi Katayama, Takashi Yorino, and Yojiro Terada showcased exceptional reliability for a rotary prototype, continuing Mazda’s steady progress in international endurance competition.

Although competing against faster Group C1 machinery, the Mazda 767B demonstrated strong endurance capability, completing the race and reinforcing Mazda’s reputation for innovation and perseverance at Le Mans. The car’s distinctive sound, lightweight construction, and bold Japanese engineering philosophy made it a fan favourite throughout the 24-hour race.

For slot car collectors and endurance racing enthusiasts, the Mazda 767B from the 1990 Le Mans is a true icon of Group C racing. Its striking orange livery, rotary-powered heritage, and authentic Le Mans history make it a standout addition to any slot car grid, especially when recreating the golden era of prototype endurance racing.
