I have a couple of the Rothmans 962's one of which I plan to do a nice restoration on.

How does the car drive now with the extensive chassis modifications? I think the Scalextric 962 has quite poor handling, particularly compared to something like the Cadillac LMP cars which can lap on my test track at 2.75 seconds compared to around 4.5 seconds for the 962.
