I got mine today, Aug. 31st. Bar none this is the best 1/32 slot car straight out of the box that I have driven. A couple of chassis screws from a slot.it chassis secured the rear of the motor pod to the chassis. After a couple of tweaks it's right there with my best can am cars. The only dislike is the mix of torx screws with the more traditional types but this was only a minor discomfort. In my book, unless a miracle comes along, this should be the 1/32 slot car of the year by far. I probably won't even swap out the rear tires. I'll use the PG tires I ordered with it on a different car. I like the new guide flag. The leading edge should keep the slot clear of the little fuzzy things that seem to migrate there.
As far as shape goes, it looks like a Lola T70 to me. And the price is totally acceptable.

The red one. John Surtees and David Hobbs have always been favorites of mine.
