Shane Lott Posted January 3, 2010 Report Share Posted January 3, 2010 (edited) Took to a Scalextric Torana today with what I think is a resounding success! 1. Fitted MJK's to the rear,glued & trued with the new TyreTrue - superb piece of engineering! - I almost baulked at $219.00 but after using it, I would have paid more!!!! But don't tell PVH that!!! 2. Trued and ground down the stock fronts but will probably go further as there's more guide to get in the slot! 3. Reworked the font end to make the bumper and lower stone tray part of the bodywork to aid in rolling. 4. Reworked the electrics and canned the digital connector. 4a. Had a brain storm when I saw the digital access hatch and placed 5.5g of balast on the inside edge with hot glue! 5. Put her on the tamiya dyno and got 28kph at 12 volts at 1:32 scale. 6. Ran her in for 20min at 3 volts. 6. Hit the track and after about 40mins of easy going, started pulling low 8 secs!. For those who might have been put off by the motor released with this model, DON'T BE!!!, like the 1:1 version, for a small unit, it packs a surprising amount of guts!!!!!
