Hi,

I have been buying for a year now almost all my scalex in Sport edition. What about you?
Do you think it's only a marketing trick from Scalex to make us buy cars more expensive or is it really worth it? I have read that the engine should be better but to be honest I have nerver really seen the difference. Besides sometimes I regret not having the crystal case for those car. The cartoon boxes are nice but mine are always closed for lack of room to expose its opened.

Maverick.

QUOTE (moped rider @ 27 Dec 2003, 17:41)The SPORT models will inevitably run better without magnets because of the ground axles at the rear.
Except when the hubs are off-centre

Three of my Sports-GT40´s have wheels that are out of round and that really p..... me off. Why make ground axles etc. when they cant even make a decent hub

So, again, off with the carp-wheels (which is a shame, cause they really look good) and on with Slot-it...... It´s getting to be some pretty expensive cars in the end!

I drive without magnets, btw.
