Quick gear failure
#6

Hi Scott,

The Scalex Mini is tall in height, short in length, and narrow compared to the Ferrari. It is prone to de-slotting much more often. It's also harder to notice if one rear axle bushing pops half way out because of a de-slot. You barely see the car sitting low on one rear corner. By the time you stop racing the car to figure out what happened. The crown gear may already be damaged.

New cars can also come out of the box with one bushing not fully popped in place. That too is a formula for disaster within a few laps, unless noticed before hand.

Either way. A new car has a warranty.

Best of luck with your Mini!  Thumbup
