The chassis is not bad. It's kind of a mix of vintage and new tech with a compromise to allow the same tooling to work for both 1/24 and 1/32 scale.
Wish I could find the time to get the body detailing done tho....

If the chassis was designed to work with 1/24 and 1/32, does that mean that there will be a line of 1/32 cars in the future?

Already is. I have seen a Batmobile in 1/32.

Can't show the paint dude, (prev post) because I sent the modified chassis to AMT with the hopes that they would use some of my mods on future kits.

The Green Hornet Black Beauty is also available as a slot car in 1/32. I saw one when I was in Indy over the weekend.

I followed Jairus' hop ups with the AMT Chassis.
I did switch to the Urethane coated rear tires, since we run on the plastic tracks here, and added one magnet underneath.
The body is the Fujimi Porsche kit, that has been curbsided.

I didn't change the motor.
It was $40 or so for it, didn't want to spend that much on a motor.
The stock motor flies!!!
Well, for me, it does.
I love it!
I picked up some of the grey styrene angle irons to make body mounts for other cars.
I love these kits.
I would love to see them change the design to fix the errors of their ways.
