No, I am not talking about dating in college... Along the way it seems that it has been indicated that t-jet type bodies (and presumably everything else) handle better if they are a little loose. Maybe they are called "floating". Now, if it works, it's good, empirically, but I like to guess as to the "why" from time to time. Maybe I can see the fore and aft thing. Accelerate and more weight is pitched rearward onto the rear tires. Stop and it shifts a little to the front tires--perhaps... Are Loose Bodies a Good Thing?

Somehow I missed this one when it came out but saw it recently on a post on this site. Since Rob Walker’s column in Road &Track was my window into F1 as a kid, I had to have it.

I got this in my inbox the other day: Hi vfr750, I'm Michelle, from the operations team over at slotforum.com. I just wanted to reach out.

I had planned to buy a digital layout this year. Had my eye on The Arc Pro platinium set: The idea of switching digital on or off Running multiple cars Getting chipped cars in the set It had a smaller food print than carrera However it isnt available anymore, talk of a new approach for Scalextric digital and no real choices has got me rethinking.
