    I find it surprising how many axles on stock production cars are not straight.  I bet I throw away 70% of the stock axles.  It’s odd that a company like Slot.it has these untrue axles on their cars, but their aftermarket axles are straight.  NSR probably has the best quality axles on production cars.  I am sure that comes from overseeing all of their production in Italy.  I will say that their aftermarket axles are even better than the ones on their production cars.

    I use the Kolhoza axle checking tool and have had great success with it.  I know it might seem expenisive but it’s better than having your cars bounce around on the track without knowing why.
