    AFX G-Plus – HobbyTown has a small stock; usually have some good cars.

    Not as pretty but supposedly higher performance cars: Vipers;  Wizards.

    The chassis can actually be used under Mega-G bodies.

    IMHO – the AFX G-Plus are already pretty hi-performance – esp. for a relatively short track – but Do handle better with the O-ring Front wheel-and-tire sets (to prevent braid lifts and hence dead spots).

    They both also sell AFX G series compatible parts and tools.

    At 4-years old in Pensacola I repaired my steering linkage on my Ford Pedal-car. Dad later converted this car to a Blue Angel with ailerons and elevators with a working "stick/yoke"; the rudder was controlled by the steering wheel. I like all motorsports - I grew up going to a NASCAR Feeder track with Sportsman and Modified classes, and was lucky to attend drag races in 1970 at Orange County Raceway. My first solder-iron was a Christmas gift at 9yo; I modified T-Jets to be AFX spec before AFX Cars were in local stores. I rebuilt a few tractor & car (SIMCA) engines plus transmissions by 15yo (I still have my ring-compressor and valve spring tool) I am a former mountain and road bike geek & perennial sound engineer.
