Posted: Mon Feb 24, 2014 8:00 pmDecent looking car. Would be hard to run with the new configuration with the Mustangs and Camaros though would be my guess? I do like the lights though.

Posted: Tue Feb 25, 2014 10:38 amI saw your pic out on FB, but didn't realize that this car came with lights…Double Wow! And as much as I hate to agree with Kurt on anything 8-) at under $50 this is a no-brainer!
As far as performance vs the other Ninco 1's, it should out perform the other inlines, but should be on pace with the Ninco 1 Plus car(s) (I can only think of the Benz as a 1+). Although in my experience the Mustang and Renault were close to the Benz on my Ninco track while the Vette I have was actually faster than the Benz… still close enough to be fun IMO.
Great review…again..Harry.

Posted: Tue Feb 25, 2014 10:47 amThanks guys.
I think this model is the first of this hybrid mix. New Mustang out also has lights, but stayed inline.
The 1+ has the Sparker motor. Great car, just a quicker player out of the box.
Thank goodness none of this is confusing eh? Next week on "Guess the Configuration" we will feature the new "ElSecundo NC-1000" motor. Limited Edition of course.

Posted: Tue Feb 25, 2014 2:41 pmWell, I see it as a 30 dollar car with a 20 dollar light kit. No interior necessary.
I'm beginning to re-think the whole interior thing. The car companies are looking to cut costs, and the interiors are a logical place to start. Interiors are not necessary to make a good slot car. As long as the car looks good, and nothing gets hokey-looking, I'm good with it.

Posted: Tue Feb 25, 2014 8:04 pmThey wouldn't get away with funky plastic gears with an NC-1000 Porker. Real meat in that motor- not like the NC-0.5 Trotter or the NC-69 Oyster. Of course, the NC-X Hammer couldn't be touched- it even had that sign at the hobby shop "Can't Touch This", and the slim can Baconer was a Streaker, a lean motor... I can't go on, this is just too awful. I'm just ribbing you. Just rubbing shoulders and jowl, ya know. I'm such a pig for this stuff. I wouldn't bull chitterling you.
