Topic: Carrera Cars in 1/24

by wb0s » Wed Jun 18, 2014 9:15 pm

Carrera makes some nice looking slot cars in 1/24. The chassis are nothing to get excited about, just typical plastic home track type designs. With the traction magnets in place on a plastic sectional home track they run OK. Without the traction magnets they work best on low power. They are not fast, but they can be fun. The bodies work well on scratchbuilt chassis as they are quite durable. Here's a couple '62 Corvettes I worked over a little.

The previous posts to this topic were copied over from the Northwest True Scale Racers site with Howie's permission. The NTSR site is scheduled to close down at the end of this year. I will be copying over as much of the great information posted there as possible in the next few months.  =====Bill
