Well all most

I nipped into Argos and bought the scalextric tvr challenge set with the eclipse and rollcentre t400r's.

what can i say the kit is excellnet. the cars are very detailed easily on a par with the current crop of fly stuff and they drive well.

Although the Eclipse car did snap off the rear spoiler after about 6 laps as it span off into the skirting board.

The argos kit even comes with a neat lap counter timer that displays fastest lap for each lane.

well worth the 90 quid and is currently setup on the office floor

and true to life they both handle slightly diffently ( possibly due to the rollcentre car being older with more development)

I also decided to compair them with the s speed 12's i have. again true to life one of them developed a fault and wouldbt run, whilst the other was brutaly fast in a straight line but handled so poorley the lap time was 3.5s against 2.4 for the t400r
