Are they really this low???

[ElSecundo]

Depends. Do you mean low as in ride height (yes), or low as in price (no)? This is a 1:43 car, and 20 GBP is pretty expensive. :)

Never alive will a go! Car be this low.
Even the 32nd cars are not that low. Take a look on Harrys review of the latest carrera dtm.
The picture is most possible from a diecast.

Still trying to figure out what he's asking. :lol: The 1:32 car sits this low, the 1:1 car sits this low, 1:43 doesn't sit this low.

Retro, is that what you are asking? :)

You have to remember these cars are still expected to be able to do loops.

:lol: Oh yeah we gotta have those loop de loops,can`t do without those! :laughing-rolling: :laughing-rolling:

I always wondered ...why don`t they have the ..loop..de..loops.. for 1/32 sets???? :laughing-rolling: do ya suppose they still consider 1/43 a toy?...maybe thats tha reason I don`t buy any of their products!

[pfuetze]

actually there are loop de loops for 1/32nd Carrera available or at least have been for some time. i´ve even seen wood 32nd tracks with loops.

loops have been around all scales for a long time... i have even seen commercial raceways with loops.. if you read and listen to the ceo's of slot car manufacturers they will tell you the toy is based on the continued use of gimmicks to keep the buyer interested in the product. if carrera was not making money on these loops you would not see them for very long.. basic fact.... loops are cool to a lot of people buying sets for their kids.
