    Well, the TR7 and Metro body have arrived safely. Looking forward to the Metro challenge.

A Metro was probably the first Scalextric car I did a decent performance upgrade on. You can make them go quick, but being a short car, they get very twitchy. Also, with good sticky tyres, you have to be careful not to wheelie them out of the slot, at the start of the race!!

Here are some of the ones I have made so far. The original finish car, has an Amato chassis, under it. This was built to use in slot rallies. I fancied the idea of something that looked standard but had surprising performance.
