If it goes that well on dusty track,it should stick to a clean track like s**t on a blanket - the real ones do when they look like yours,anyway.

Posted: Tue Apr 30, 2013 8:42 amI never comment on 1/43 cars, mainly because I don't own any. But, I have to say that this Mini is the best I have ever seen, in any scale! Well done mate!

Posted: Tue Apr 30, 2013 8:56 amThat looks great Peter, I was running my Mini from the Scratch build proxy a couple years a go this last weekend and aside from the wheels rubbing the body it ran great, but looking at yours I am reminded of the things I could do to make it, better, I am running a regular HO motor and HO crown gear. I think the the Ranch aluminum crowns came out about the time of that race and I did not have time to get some, I got some fireboxes and some of those aluminum pinions so I may need to upgrade!! That chassis looks sharp as well, I was thinking "hmmm, Maybe I should go to Shapewayz and get one of those", BUT I really want to try another brass chassis on my next Mini, so I can try and get the weight down low! :ugeek:
