Recently found this site very impressed lots of information. Thought you would like my list of modified cars which is as follows -
Scalextric S4C Mini Red GT40 Subaru from box set Focus from box set, front lights fitted Ninco Fiat Punto Austin Healy hardtop, front and rear lights fitted Spirit Reynard 2KQ Lola B2K/10 Fly Mecedes Benz Atego 1998 Mecedes Benz Atego 1999 Cartrix Z3 Hardtop, front lights fitted Vanquish Lotus 72 Slot Indy 98 Agajanian Special Some required a little bit of butchery, the Z3, Lotus 72, 98 Agajanian Special beingf the most tricky. Where lights are fitted, originally or by me, I always fit a 1N4001 diode off the green wire connection on the chip to provide protection against noise spikes, failure of the chip, and future SSD modifications made by Scalextric damaging the LED's. If anybody wants more details the please contact me direct. Ray |

Hi there,
I chipped my first SSD car on last Weekend. I selected an SCX Audi TT R. No problems found. The car runs great on my track. Currently the lights are on no break light function. I will tray on next weekend to bring the break light to work. Regards Volker |

I chipped the new Scaley Ferrari. She's a beat! I thought she'd be competition for my Boxsters, but not as fast. Average lap times 4.2-4.5 seconds compared to 3.6-4.0 for the Boxsters. Actually, it compares better with the Audi. The Audi is quicker, but the Ferrari handles better.

I chipped a Ford GT40 today with an F1 chip. Very tight. Burned my fingers with the soldering iron and cut another finger with an exacto knife (cutting out some extra hot glue)

I do have a very short and twisty track. The GT40 is fast, but my longest straight is only about 6 feet. I'm guessing the Boxsters have stronger magnets than the stock GT40. -------------------- Bill
