GALLERY: Chevrolet Impala SS

Scalextric Chevrolet 'Impala SS'

The ManicSlot Mini Review

Strengths:

• Impressive 'from the box' performance, (little rear tire trueing required)
• Solid level of detail, (internal, wheel/tire detail look excellent)
• High level paint finish and decal detail
• Digital 'ready' chassis
• Forced centring, quick change glide

Weaknesses:

• Despite having improved detail over previous Scalextric Nascar releases, this releases detail isn't as high as a typical Scalextric detail level
• 2-3mm sideways 'play' in rear axle which required 2 shims to correct on my model, (see above photo for brass shim locations)

Verdict:

The Chevrolet Impala SS Nascar is a 'fun' and extremely enjoyable slot to run and race on the track. Track performance is very impressive given the size and length of the chassis/body. Get a pair of these and you're guaranteed to have a blast racing them on your track!
