Aurora Posted March 30, 2021 Author Share Posted March 30, 2021 Thanks for looking folks. Here's the starting point - the vintage Monogram vintage slot car parts and the vintage Airfix body. All the other parts were made from scrap materials. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I ran several 1-mile time trials and am happy to say that it runs very well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two drivers have taken a turn at the wheel; the Martian, and this guy. The Terminator was a little bit slower due to all that heavy metal.
