All it took was the right paint scheme to make this my first Ford Escort.<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I fully admit to being one of the many who just cannot get enough of classic GULF colors. I also like the special display cases Scalextric puts them in. For some who collect, this has become quite popular.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

I think they have done a good job with this model overall. I do not really run this class of model often, so having one in this scheme is a good start.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/span><\/p>\n

Basic inline configuration with slimline motor and 9\/27 gearing. And yes, lighted front and rear. Another major plus for me.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/span><\/p>\n

Chose Paul Gage as my tire choice. These fit well and easily sanded. You might want to glue them for hard racing. I coated my wheels with Hansens Hard as Nails nail polish. This holds the tires well. but they can be peeled off if need be.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/span><\/p>\n

No idea if I will ever get another one, but happy with the one on front of me for now. Of course any fan of this series will almost have to have it.<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n
