         Actual pictures taken from a hand painted prototype. Production units may be slightly different to meet our factory quality standards.  Something else to expect for 2013

Rothmans livery? Will there be one or at least a white kit to paint?

I am a big fan of the 959, is it all-wheel drive ? The icons say "4x4" is it band and pulleys?

This appears to be the same chassis design as the Subaru, upgrade, IL 4WD w/ pulleys & a sprung guide.
Gee, ya think the Dakar version will sell out?!?!?!?! The FLY Racing Porsche is an excellent platform, I have about 10 of them & have them set for various uses. They have a low nose & I've never tried to put a spring guide in one, though. |

i hate spring guides. nasty wobbly things. even though you,ve got to use them on rally cars you,d have thought that by now they would have got the tollerances right. whatever guide i,m using i drill a hole through the middle, chop it just under the exit and use a flanged self tapper in it. even the scaley ones with about 3mm of indented round plastic before it splits into the two prongs gets this treatment and it does make a big difference to non mag cars. john

This looks pretty good, however I'm not so sure about their new universal chassis that is not Slot.it motor mount compatible.
  What I loved about the MSC Subaru and the Scaleauto SLS was the possibility to use Slot.it AW mounts. But it might just work well enough, so let's see. Also waiting for the Dakar version. |

Why does the black one have two wing mirrors and the red one only one?
Stunning cars though a must have for me. |
