Not...
But I tell you what this old Airfix Viva has been down to famous slot car builder Scudbong Pete who`s put a new motor & stuff in it, & it now goes like a scadded cat! Everything he has done has been on the performance side & he`s made a real difference.
Over the moon with it Pete.. thanks a lot mate!
Cheers,
Kev.

A super slo-mo photo of the car struggling for adhesion as it hurtles round the curved chicane at a measured scale speed of 360mph!!

The car striking a pose outside Bettys refreshment kiosk, showing off it`s sleek racing lines.Notice the high quality tampo printed race roundels & registration plate.

For added instability the Airfix Viva features super skinny tyres & a cheap nylon twin peg guide.

Shame Pete can't make his own cars go any better

I saw said Viva in the flesh on Friday evening, it was going pretty well considering it's skinny tyres.

They look wider on your photos than they do in real life.

You've probably got too much grip, Kev's Viva was quite slidey

My first ever work vehicle was a yellow HA.

I only had it for a week and it was replaced with an equally yellow Metro.
