Picked up this beauty from Mark and swapped out stock motor for one of his, just what the doctor ordered :banana-dance:

Yep. All of the small chassis Revells are like that. The NSU, Fiat, Opel 1000, Trabant, Porsche 550- all of them benefit greatly from a simple milder motor swap. Sometimes, you don't even need different tires. But be sure to true up the wheels and tires! No need to handicap a good car.

For sure! Won't need tires. Heck, I didn't true the wheels or tires. I changed the motor, put it on the track to see what I had. It ran very well without doing anything to either. But, I will go ahead and touch them up. :dance:

I agree! I wish I'd not sold all of mine now. Very fun cars though.

Very fun little car. I have the same livery with the MT/1 and some Paul G. tires (the stock tires had dry rotted) and it is an absolute blast. I've been keeping my eyes open for the factory Yager version to go with it.
