The Carrera version can really be turned into a great runner. Robert Livingston did one in 2005 that was just fantastic. The secret to it (well, one of the secrets to it) was the gearing, which involved a Cox crown gear that was so big, a hole had to be cut in the rear deck for the gear to poke through. Great car, though, and really the only other way to get a Bentley Speed 8, unless there's some other boutique resin manufacturer out there who has done it. The Carrera version was the EXP Speed 8, I think. It's actually a different model, but still pretty close to this one.
