Kinda nice BUT the rear wheel position doesn't look good at all. (perhaps it's just the angle but looks too far inboard to me?)

 

[Screwneck]

Real wheels do hide inside the arches, of course. It's 100% accurate. And the model has adjustable wheels, so is no problemo!

If all the hype and feeding-frenzy fervour about the Flat6 motor is right, then this could be the best slotcar ever made, for sure.

 

[DJ]

Just my eyes then??

 

[Screwneck]

Yep, just your eyes

Nice picture

 

[Bigtone]

Lovely looking car, but maybe they could have got a jump on others by doing the new Mclaren GT

 

[DJ]

Is it left hand drive or right hand drive?

 

[Mr Croker]

Maybe they will but since mclaren have yet to race the car at Le Mans it might be a while.

Now where is the GT1'98

Almost certain Scalextric have the exclusive rights to make that

 

[nick w]

Awesome! Been waiting for this one

 

[PJF]

It's definetly on my shopping list. Good call making it AW with a flat 6, I recently got the lancia & converted it from IL.

Does that mean that your mosler is going to be retired then

Nice car, very very tempting

That one must be among the absolute top of nicely done slotcars. Thank you Slot-It.

(Now just add Porsche 911 GT1 and Porsche 911 GT1-98 and Mercedes GTR and Mercedes CLK LM and Panoz GTR-1 too...)

And the Toyota GT1

 

[steveaca]

McLaren F1s were neither right nor left hand drive. The driver sat in the middle , flanked by seats on either side and slightly behind him.

 

[PJF]

I think DJ knows that the driver sits in the middle

It's called humour, well it made me smile

 

[John Parr]

I guess some people just do,nt get humour..

 

[uksqueezea]

... or the fact that this is a toy car..

 

[Jango]

Bit of a first for me, this one - this is the first time I've ever felt compelled to place a pre-order for a car.

Gotta have this one - it's gorgeous!

 

[Ratracer]

Very nice was hoping for the newer faster flat 6 motor.
