Picked up a couple brand new Artin 1/32 F1 cars the other day. I have always been a fan of the Artin running gear, as it has a nice scale speed, and a very durable chassis design. Since I have been collecting up Formula cars as of late, I thought adding these would be a fun touch. They are great runners, but they send them with the most out of scale, narrow wire wheels that they could find on them. Not likeing that, I dug into the parts box for some of my "Fatboy" chassis axles and wheels. After a little teardown and re assembly, I have a few very fun, not bad looking F1 cars that I can let anyone run that comes over. A little paint and detail on the drivers, and they will look as good as my others.

What a cool conversion. Nice work Bob. I'll race them :)

Are those still available? I've been looking for reasonably priced F1 or Indy style cars

Mostly the bay.

Carrera cars at 32 bucks a shot are pretty good value in my book. The newest ones coming should make a great series.

I used to enjoy the SCX F-1s, too. I haven't seen any in a long time.

I had a hopped up Artin F1 that held the lap record on my old Lost Coast Raceway wood track for a long time. That car stuck to the track like it had magnets.
