Nice one. These cars sure are popular and for good reasons. Mine is still going and have only needed a tire change. Only picked up one other over the years though. Not many of the folks I race with mess with them so didn't need to, and some guys got turned on to the Fly versions which had us tuning those.

The size of the wheel isn't a "bad bit" to me? We race these only against each other and work fine. I'm a "user" too :)

Thanks for doing this. These cars are out there and newcomers could use a reminder of how nice they are. Great job.

Great looking car, and thanks for the indepth. While a little modern for my tastes, I have driven these before and really like the way they go.

Nice job RM, one of my favorite slot cars to run.

One of the best tuners I know has said that if he had to choose one car to tune, and his life depended on beating a certain lap time, this is the car he would choose. Great potential to go fast.

And while the car might be ugly as sin, it's modeled very well -- and for some reason, even ugly cars look good in 1:32 when they're done well. :)
