Yes Harry, the overwhelming sense of almost childish like self satisfaction and awe just oozes through into the conversation with these. No 'reworks' nor need to resort to 'gas lighting' over the consideration to get them to 'look and feel' right. Just do what you have done here in terms of the basics and we are good to go. I've gone for the 'triptych' with these too as it would have been most rude not to. Like you I am best pleased. Clearly, these are what all slot cars should be like and, with so much around, I suspect present day quality considerations are winning through with most people's buying habits? Moreover, no fragile and brittle transparent polystyrene casing to crack and otherwise pollute the environment for centuries to come. These three are a win, win, win.
Bought the yellow Le Mans version, beautiful finish, runs well on the club wood track, loved seeing these Vettes at LM and the C7 and C8. Next Revo for me is on pre order, the #46 Datsun 510 from Trans Am 72.
Thanks for the good tips on race preparation. I bought mine, a few weeks back. as the 2000 24 hour boxed set of two as well as the blue 50 anniversary car. And the white kit that was subsequently less expensive. May have been a mistake buting the presentation box since i am reluctant to run the 64 car as intended. But solved last night by ordering the single boxed 64 to prepare for racing. A bit hard to resist any of the RevoSlot releases since the first Porsche cars. Helped where i am in that they are easier to get than Scalextric or Carrera and not much more to pay so far better value for me.
Got #3 last week. Gear mesh on mine was close to flawless this time. Still, I run them at about 3 volts for an hour with mild abrasive to really smooth things out. Revos rock!
