Santa, ie me, brought me the new Scalextric McLaren F1GTR in the Gulf livery. I'm happy, but slightly disappointed that its performance is nowhere near as good as the previous Porsche 911. I assume some of it may be due to its width which is more than 1/8" less than the Porsche and btw all of the other F1GTRs from other manufacturers.

Mine is a screamer. And the width? Actually more accurate, especially compared to the NINCO.

I did say it was only slightly disappointing. As always the motor performance is a result of the luck of the draw. I definitely got extremely lucky with the motor in one of my Porsches. The F1GTR, before tuning, wouldn't corner as well.

Yeah I have seen a couple in testing that are pretty hot. Like you said, luck of the draw.
Yo 442! Post some pics of that bad boy please? :)

Santa brought me a TruSpeed MTI controller and a Scalextric Ferrari 412P. Also 3 white bodies; Cooper-Ford, NSR P68 and a NSR 917. Along with assorted hardware to build each from scratch.
Merry Christmas to you all.

I have to admit, as much as I think I am such a good guy... I am laughing my butt off that you are stuck with 3 Pink Pigs. Schadenfreude at its most poignant. Shoot me a price on PM. I'll do what I can for you. LOL!

Santa brought back memories of yesteryear for me but these Scalectric cars are better detailed than the old Eldon cars my buddy and I raced when we were in grade school.

Main thing that I noticed was the drivers, it must be a one size fits all for either the 1/32 or the 1/24 cars.
