    I havent bought one, but funny you should mention that. My Dad just bought a slot car track, he also is buying a vac-u-form! So I plan on making my own Maverick slot car this winter. Im going to find me a JL Grabber to make my body off of.

    Why not use one of the Motor Max Mavericks would be cheaper but not quite as light I guess?

    They are HO scale which is pretty close if not 1/64th. You can tell in the door window area it should be alittle longer.
