my kids have there own cars that they use, funny thing is that they are faster than my cars as my cars are much older and pretty worn out. but they have pretty good control, that is as long as i don't pass them

Fly for me - mainly because they make the cars I like the most and they look great - yeah, yeah, they do have things that need to be corrected, but they are usually fairly easy to fix. Not recommended for beginners or folks that don't like to solve problems. Da Vol - Bruce

Hi Dug, that Lotus is a nice looking car. I have the Slot it McLaren and all I can tell you is it's crazy-fast...at least compared to the rest of my humble stable of seven other cars. I'd have to agree with ElSecundo though, go with your preference depending upon your goals.

Slot.It cars have a technical quality that I like, so I use certain Slot.It parts in every car I build. But, I don't care for most 1980's Group C race cars, or any other cars that Slot.It makes (except Saubers), as my main interest is cars from the 1960's. So, I buy MRRC/Revell-Monogram cars, and rebuild everything mechanical. They run great after rebuilding. OOB, not so hot. I like SCX for lower-speed RTR's, as they handle...

First let me say the Scalextric round guide and braid plate breaking is a huge problem for the last 4 years all across the Hobby since they introduced it and they seem to be unwilling to address the problem or even recognize it. The B-Nova Guide Adaptor that glues into a Scalextric chassis and allows you to use a Slot-It Universal guide is sold in our shop as well. In fact the gentleman, Robert...

No real favorite though there are those that take more work than others to get to performing well. As many of the older folks here, I like those that I make myself or build up from kits. There are the myriad repaints that I like to do as well on various cars that seems to add to the enjoyment of running a car that few if any also have. About the only cars that I don't run as often as others are SCX. This is because I like to run at 10...

I hear your reservations about racing such a nice Racer. Obviously if you ARE going to race it, there will be some potential scuffs. Maybe you should just leave it as is, race it to death, and then see what it looks like. You can always get new decals and either place them over the existing ones, then clear coat the whole car if that is your ultimate goal. Or you can leave it on the shelf as a raced Racer and put mock 'repair' tape...

very sharp look . and if the slimline motor only revs to 18,000 rpm , i`ve got a bridge i`d like to sell ! they should seriously consider puttin` this motor in lots more of their cars . again , speed to the "nth" degree . on my short track (scaley sport) with ten turns , three of wich are 120 degrees , this is one impressive car . even with the stock rubber slicks . wow . very good handlin` , fast/quick , attractive little...
