    That looks like a fun little car. With the modifications you made it has surpassed fun to become a great little car 👍

    Great review Dave! I’ve been thinking about one of these NSR Fiat’s for a while now. You have just pushed me over the edge.

    Good show as always , that's the first blowout I have seen also. Glad you like the car, I have the Mosler great car I also don't like there guides I use the slotinvasion guides on Carrera you just about have to tip the car over to come out.

    NSR are really nice. I don't have one of the Fiat's yet, but lucky enough to have a small collection of Porsche 917K and Ford GT40 from NSR. Everyone runs great. The only thing I have done to most of my NSR's is to replace the guide with SlotInvasion guides. Thanks for another video!

    Add a small amount of lead to the chassis, as you have removed the magnet. This should help to keep the car settled on the track.

    Thanks for showing us this car Dave .I was only recently looking at the fiat 500s in online stores and thinking of buying. I rekon they would be fun racers like the minis . For me little cars like this are far more interesting than group c cars and dtm style stuff . Valuable advice on set up too .great stuff ...thank you 👍

      @slotr best and most interesting..I've only got about 10 Carrera cars and already I think I'm almost done with their supercars. i think in total I will stop at 20 in regards to Carrera collection ...I might get a few nascars by them and maybe two ugly trucks 🤭😅

    That's nice, Dave. Wondering how you sanded your tyres and whether you overheated the rubber to make the compound disintegrate? I've seen the molding imperfections but not this level of attrition before. Low voltage and possibly using coolant seems to be the way to go?
