Yes Chaps,
Quite a disappointment, what?
I was hoping Scalextric would rise to the standard that Carrera has long held in this specific Genre but Alas, they have not come to the party for us it seems...
I have to say though it is an improvement overall from their Charger thingies.
Would I buy one for the "performance" advantage Scaley seems to offer the minority magnet racing group I proudly belong to?
If their XB Ford Falcon was anything to go by, probably not!
I was so disappointed with the performance of that model at Christmas time, I threw it into a corner of my workbench, turned off the garage light and went into "Archery/University" stasis for ten months :)
I think I will pass on this one, enjoy my Carrera classic Nascars, a very proven product by the way and spend my dollars on the upcoming Challenger/Cougar and one of Jules exquisite little Camaros (if I can source one), these models are where its at right now folks :)
... Oh and dont forget the latest Carrera Daytona, now THAT is something special!!!!
