Shadow won the 1975 Race of Champions at Brands Hatch in a DN5, but had to wait until Austria, in 1977, for their first Grand Prix victory. It should be the first of many victories for this highly professional outfit. A feature of the UOP Shadow was its wide monocoque and side radiators. The car possessed a central oil tank and was powered by a Ford Cosworth V8 engine. The UOP shadow is included in the Scalextric range in either white or black body colour.
