Has anyone else noticed that as of late, Scalextric has not been including the "technical data" on their releases?
I haven't seen width, wheel base, motor orientation, weight, magnetic down force data etc on any of the newer releases?
Am I missing the link to this info - and if so - can somebody point me to it? :think:
(I would definitely appreciate it!)

MG Brown -
That "may" be the case with the magnetic down force - but things like track width, weight, motor type/orientation, gear ratio, tire size etc are very valuable if you don't have the car(s) in front of you (and some isn't even readily apparent even if you have one new in the case in front of you either)
:(

Unless it's mustang meat. It'd be a bit tough, I think.

Wait a minute, when I hear the phrase 'Mustang meat' I think of Camaros, and an occasional Firebird.

I email dealers to confirm an item is in stock before making a purchase, just 'cuz I like knowing when I'm gonna get what I'm buying. Which is why I prefer to buy from an actual hobby shop or raceway, even if the price is a bit more.

Slothead

Oh, I likey!!!

Driven by John Hall from 1970-72 this is a real Boss 302 and was originally sponsored by Ford of Canada and Fogg Motors. The original color was Grabber Blue and later changed to white livery.
Peter Hallford is the current owner and he does vintage race it.

I was running that Smokey Mustang just today!

I simply posted a picture of a nice looking slot car !!
A way to show that a new car will be available.
The folks on this forum have be very helpful to me and I am just an average guy who has found a hobby that I really enjoy !
I am not suggesting that anyone buy this or any other slot car, nor do I know the price.

And it's a cool car. Thanks for the reminder.
