Umm? 'New-ish' to 1/32.
Jumping in at the deep end I pulled the trigger on a used NSR Mosler, which to my surprise came with an upgraded 30k motor. A quick look while the grandchildren were distracted by the Wii and all I've spotted so far is one taillight missing - and more 'seriously', a binding front axle. This was freed up by twisting and pulling the wheels outwards just a fraction. (I don't have ANY Allen keys yet!)
The club race non-magnet cars on Scalextric Sport track so I've already removed the magnet but should I add weight, if so where and how much?
Is this 'race ready' other than the usual truing up of the tyres (NSR's all round) and a little light oiling, or should I be loosening off the body and motor pod screws and 'doing other stuff'?
I guess one or two spare grub screws wouldn't go amiss, so what size would I need - and what Allen key?
