1:32 Ferrari Slot Cars

I have two Ferrari F1 cars (I think 1999 and 2000) from Pro Slot. I bought them four years ago, and they are still new in the boxes. I never bought a 1/32 track, so never used them.

Model numbers PS1001 (Ferrari F-300 F-1 No 3)
and PS1022, if you want to do some research and see if you want them.

I got the Scalextric GT-40 set last Christmas and love it. I then went out and bought a Carrera Enzo to drive on the track, and I was really disappointed. The GT40's are faster and handle better, the Enzo is basically slow and it continually gets stuck on the track. It rides so low, that it hits the joints between the track sections. It's very frustrating.

 

Uh, oh.

My Scalextric track is currently dismantled, project for the winter to get it running again. I have the GT40 as well and love it (converted one into a Ferrari 250 GTO). Bought the Carrera Enzo in the summer but never drove it. So your post makes me a bit anxious, oh well, it is still a nice model to place next to the track.

Scotty, obviously there is ebay for all things. However the older cars I bought there I used basically for their body and placed them on a modern Scalextric chassis.

Scalextric and Carrera have some nice Ferrari models. They all come with magnets, which you might or might not want to remove.

Ninco and Fly have some great Ferrari racecars without magnets. The 512M I got powerslides so much in the turns, that it can take an opponent out with its tail...

Be careful when you buy F1 cars: Basically all old F1 cars I found on ebay were in such bad shape, that they basically bounce off the track in the first turn if they run at all. I use them now for static display only to enhance the scenery.

I did buy some new Carrera F1, one Ferrari, one Sauber. To keep it fair when playing I always try to buy two similar cars at the same time.

 

Has anybody bought one of these yet? Pretty cool.

Yeah, I saw an ad for these and got all excited, limited edition etc until I realized, that it is a Maser, not a Ferrari. But they are gorgeous.

 

There is a 1/32nd slot car of the Marzotto "egg" in all red or two tone silver. I think it was made about 6 months ago, by Carrera

 

Yup. Got that one as well when I bought the Enzo in the UK. It is absolutely gorgeous and like the Enzo has the interior detailed as well with a driver. Sadly I haven't driven than one either. Yet.

 

All F1 cars in general seem poorly detailed but run like stink around the track.

The Ferrari Daytona Le Mans car and 512S Longnose are lovely cars if a mite expensive. But the details might add some weight and slow it down. I havent run 512S yet so I dont know for sure
