Ken, how well does it run ?

Hello Brumos,

I just got back from being away for a while. First order of business was to try the new Corvette.

The first test was on a private track 160' feet long. We don't have a class of car with an 18k slimline motor to compare it to. It did get a chance to stretch it's long legs. The Corvette was still picking up speed at the end of the longest straight. No shortage of gear. Everyone that saw and tried it, loved it. It's sitting on the left side of the monster track below.

   
   
   

After that I went to another friend that also has private track (1/24) just over 100' feet long. He happens to have the 1/32 Ninco Corvette.

   
   
   
   
   

My humble apologies that I'm not an experienced reviewer. I'm just a happy customer. The tests were on routed tracks with copper rails. Magnets are useless.

It's not a speed demon. It's a very respectable sports car with an 18k slimline motor. Most of the weight of the car is in the chassis. The CG is very low. Lower than a plastic Ninco chassis. It handles like it's on rails. Straight as an arrow with no fishtailing. If you push too hard, it would roll out before sliding out. Maybe it's due to the grippy urethane tires? I still need to play with and adjust the pod a little. The car runs super silent. Like a whisper.

Everyone that tried it, loved it.

Everyone around here is hungry for something new. Nobody cared about the rocker panels. Everyone just wants a new Corvette. [img=22x22]data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7[/img]

I look forward to tuning the pod and body float down the road.

Here's a link to the urethane white wall tires.

Thank you very kindly for looking,
