We have a set of Revo GT2's as club cars, they're nearly 3 years old, still have the original stock 30 shore tyres on, haven't needed a penny spent on them, the tyres have worn to a smooth shine so traction is brilliant and there's probably another couple of years left in those tyres.

Yes they were a bit noisy to start with but make sure there's backlash all round the spur gear as they're not very concentric.

The Marcos is the easiest to drive fast, the Porsche is the sprinter of the bunch, the Viper being a bit narrower is somewhere in-between but only a tenth down on the others.  The spare is a Marcos and hasn't needed using yet which is testament to how good and reliable these are.

Other Revos we see on our track/Rally:

Alfa GTA and BMW 2002 - both Gr2, both go in our Small Saloon class (54mm wide) and easily the most competitive cars you can buy in this class but not really competitive against scratch or 3D chassied modifieds.

Toyota Supra, Ferrari 333, Mercedes CLK GTR, Toyota GT-One are all quick but not competitive against other 'standard' Sports/GT's like the NSR Mosler or some of the quicker LMP's.

Ideally Revos belong together in their own class.

The new Corvette C5-R will probably be the car of choice in the next Revoslot Proxy and looks a fabulous car.
