Carrera 64136 Ferrari 488 GT3 AF Corse #488 GO!!! Analog Slot Car Racing Vehicle 1:43 Scale

We've been racing Carrera Go cars for almost a year now and this is our 6th car. While all the cars have performed extremely well, this is by far the fastest car. I think the difference is that the Ferrari GT cars have slightly larger wheels, and I'm pretty sure (assuming) all the cars have the same electric motor. Larger wheels mean every turn of the motor will push the car farther than smaller wheels.Our set up is on a ping pong table in the basement and the cars fly off the curves if you use the turbo boost at the wrong place in the track, ending up on the concrete floor. After much abuse of this nature, and lots of collisions at an intersection, the only damage has been the loss of a rear spoiler after hitting the floor and a broken guide pin after multiple side impacts at the intersection.So, overall, for the price, the Carrera Go 1/43 scale has provided hours and hours of fun, week after week, for my 4 year old nephew who lives with us. Some online articles say that young children don't have the dexterity to control the throttle and won't be able to navigate the cars through tight curves. We've found that with some adult guidance and clear explanations of how to drive through those curves, my nephew mastered the skill when he was still 3 years old.

Another heavy, large Go car. These are fun to race against another car that is a similar type. Larger wheels, it is slower than something as an F1 car. It drifts well, and will fly off the track under turbo in a corner like most larger cars. A real challenge to drive, and that is part of the fun of the Go cars. The styling is exceptional, these are just beautiful cars to collect and race, and we own quite a few of them now.

Looks like the real thing

I have bought this and it performs better than 1/43 analog dtm from carrera. It maybe slightly bigger but the wider body makes the car more stable. The acceleration and sound also better than the dtm model. Most recommended. Thanks again Amazon and UPS for excellent service.

My kids and I have loved these cars. The rear spoiler fell off after a handful of tumbles, but no big deal. They are super cool!

The dimensions provided are incorrect, much smaller than described. Longest side is less than 5 inches.

I was glad that I found this on Amazon.

Fun car. Good detail.
