Russ Toy has contributed pictures of several of his recent scratchbuilt cars - here is
his STP Lotus Turbine. Andy Granatelli would be proud! Thanks Russ! --tja
If you liked my
STP Paxton Turbine, you'll love this STP Lotus Turbine. The chassis
is the same as my VMRA production F1/Indy chassis with a few modifications. The body
is a reissue from AMT/Ertl, the decals however were not to my liking. For some reason,
the STP logo does not have a white outline, but aftermarket decals are available on eBay.
Other than that, this is one sharp looking slot car and it's fast to boot. It's incredibly
nimble through the turns and quick down the straightaway. 2-wheel drive is still better
than 4-wheel drive, at least with slot cars.
