Not so successful experiment for sale:
Scalextric Bentley GT3, lights removed, Scaleauto 30K S can motor, Slotingplus alloy rear wheels, glued and trued tyres, NSR gears, chassis weighted and Slot.it deep guide. Generally good bodily condition but one mirror missing. No box.
Insanely fast but virtually uncontrollable on a small track, guide will lift out of slot under hard acceleration despite weighted nose. Anybody want to try and tame it?
£25 + postage at cost

Arrived today. Very nice thanks. Going to undergo a bit of a weight reduction programme though - removing the traction magnet asap.
That
might help limit traction - and reduce wheelies - on Scalextric Sport track?
(I'm thinking wheel
spin rather than wheel
ies?)
Still hoping it's going to be a bit of a Beast though
DOH! Just realised. It's not going to make any difference is it, as you were getting wheelies on wood & copper taped track, so no magnetic effect!

Sport track is quite slippery though so may get the desired result.
