In answer to your question at 2:21 , the answer is in the top right of the screen. The cars being noted at the top right as being super resistant. The lack of the interior from Scalextric means the car does not get the centre of gravity raised with usual very heavy and strong interior at a place where strength is not needed. Most beginners see the figure eight with overpass bridge as a plus, but I would suggest unless the raised track pieces are very well supported , then that layout is a recipe for ending up with bent and bumpy track piece deterioration. The result being throwing out the track and maybe leaving the hobby discouraged or more expense buying new track as alternative to the cars getting launched by the bumps. That's on top of bad electrical connection between track pieces developing and discouraging the user experience. Learnt that lesson many years ago.
love your videos, keep it up. I was really disappointed in the first half with all that ford stuff. From the F1 twin pack onwards was nothing but hits for me. il be spending a lot of money this year.
Thanks for your review Massimo...very honest which i really like 👍 i was waiting to see what you said on the mini triple pack but maybe you didn't get the photo of that one 😊Thanks for sharing your review ,really enjoyed it 🤗
@@SCALE_SLOTCARS_AND_RC hi brother! Yeah I’m pretty sure it’s in there. The Monte Carlo triple pack. It’s very cool! They did a great job with all their twin and triple packs! Excited to see these in the wild! What are you most excited for?
So the Spectrum Pursuit Vehicle and Spectrum Patrol Car are from a British Children’s (kind of) TV series from 1967 called Captain Scarlet & The Mysterons. It was made by the same production company that made Thunderbirds (the series directly prior) using the same marionette techniques and model-based effects. As such, from Scalextric’s perspective, these two are a follow up to the large pink FAB1 Rolls-Royce 6 wheeler Scalex produced in 2023. Hope that helps.
Nice lookers there!🏁
Thank you, some good looking cars.
Great range vid Massimo - You forgot the famous slide tho
Great video legend...volvo for the win

The F1 set looks like a possibility for sure!🏁
