Pioneer Camaro

[dr fabio]

Hi OT,

Which Chargers do you have? I think Ive got the white shotgun Charger in the shed in a box somewhere, if you want it. Im not really a collector so Im not sure why I got it. Need to check what these go for.

Hi Dr Fabio,
Thankful for the consideration, but the Shotgun Wedding car is already one in my collection.
Thanks

With respect to the way the cars look, no contest Pioneer. You will not get the wrong rims and the wrong paint job on a Pioneer car. Its as close to accurate as allowable compared to its close enough. With respect to performance, out of the packet Id tip in favour of Pioneer with mags on plastic. Large track need to switch to the optional 13T pinion. Then no contest. With a 12T is close, with perhaps Scaly winning. Without traction mags and with equal tyres Id favour the Pioneer. That 18K second generation motor with a 13T pinion is real nice.

Depends on the Scalex car in question, we've gone through the variation straight out of the box with mag strengths etc, the earlier mustangs and Camaros were a lot more stuck down than the later variants. But i'd say straight out of the box as a rule the pioneer Trans Ams are quicker on plastic. ( But that's not always the most fun is it ?)
The other thing about the Pioneers that I like, is that they all use the same chassis on all the T/A cars which solves parity. So in theory whatever the car, if you do the same tune up, or toss the mags or whatever, they should still remain equalish.

But once you get onto wood I think the scaleys have the edge, in my case.
I think driver ability tuning differences and other factors probably influence things more.

I like them all and if I had to chose one brand over the other. I just couldn't.

I must agree with Fab's about scale accuracy, I think Pioneer have the edge. But then I believe that they're slotcars first and scale models second.

Mike is right. That Green machine is a stunner. Congratulations Jules.
