About This Product:
The 2026 Repco Bathurst 1000 delivered another memorable chapter for Red Bull Ampol Racing, with Will Brown and Scott Pye combining for an impressive second-place finish aboard the #888 Ford Mustang GT, securing a Bathurst podium and the prestigious Ryco Supercars Enduro Cup in the process.
Qualifying fourth fastest before securing sixth position in the Top Ten Shootout, Brown and Pye entered Australia’s Great Race with a competitive package and their sights firmly set on a strong result.
Despite battling tyre blistering issues throughout the 161-lap contest, the pair demonstrated impressive pace and determination to remain in contention. With Pye delivering a strong performance across his stints, Brown took charge of the closing stages, fighting for the lead in a dramatic late-race battle as Brodie Kostecki charged through the field aboard the #17 Shell V-Power Racing Team Mustang.
Ultimately crossing the finish line in second place, Brown and Pye secured a well-deserved Bathurst podium, narrowly missing out on victory in another thrilling edition of Australia’s most famous motor race.
The result carried additional significance, with the second-place finish securing the 2026 Supercars Enduro Cup for Brown and Pye, rewarding their efforts across the endurance races and providing Brown with valuable championship points heading into the Supercars Finals.
For Red Bull Ampol Racing, the result also marked an important achievement in the team’s first Bathurst 1000 campaign with the Ford Mustang GT following its switch back to the Blue Oval for 2026.
From a hard-fought Bathurst podium to Enduro Cup honours, the #888 Red Bull Ampol Racing Mustang delivered a memorable result worthy of celebration.
Authentic Collectables are pleased to be replicating this significant moment for Will Brown, Scott Pye and Red Bull Ampol Racing with this special limited edition model release.
This 1:18 scale edition is scheduled to be produced in high quality die-cast with opening parts which includes the bonnet and both the driver and passenger doors.
A highly detailed racing cockpit can be seen through the molded clear glasshouse, or by opening the doors to examine the interior further. Under the bonnet includes a detailed 5.4-litre Coyote quad overhead cam V8 and engine bay surround. Underneath the model, the undercarriage details the unique Gen3 floorpan.
Comprised of roughly 204 individual metal and plastic parts, with anywhere between 100-200 steps in paint and decoration finishing, including tampo printing where possible, photo etched parts including the bonnet pints, brake rotors and more, this is a high quality, detailed collectors model.
It will come in an exclusive, one-off limited edition with an individually numbered Certificate of Authenticity presented in its own, Authentic Collectables branded protective cardboard folder.
A scale replica of the 2nd place pit-board from Pirtek victory lane as an optional display feature will also be included.
