------
This car has a shorter wheelbase along with the new stiffer chassis which enables it to handle better than the Porsche 956 from Slot.it. The car comes directly from Slot.it with their high performance balanced 25,000 rpm motor, tempered rear axle, high performance crown gear with brass pinion on the motor shaft, aluminum wheels with set screws in the rear, 1 neodymium magnet, brass axle bushings for the rear axle, and competition braid. The cars are highly detailed and beautifully finished.
Due to the ban on cigarette advertising Slot.it made this car with decals covering the Silk Cut name. To expose the Silk Cut name you need to use scotch or masking tape placed over the decal which will pull the cover decal off exposing the Silk Cut name on the rear wing, sides of the car, nose of the car, and area behind the front headlights.
