    For a moment there I thought you were talking about swapping the motor mags... something I've been curious about for years. Should have figured you meant the neo dots =) I have quite a few T cars so I'm going to have to give this a try as well!

    T cars always have a good showing in the regional and national races. Well designed chassis.

    I like them, though I am not a fan of the pickup shoe spring setup.

    Lifelike T and Tyco HP7 are both chassis' I get rid of just as quickly as any from Auto world. On the T ( and HP7 ) the pickup shoe setup is just plain trash. Brand new I don't consider either of them worth ten bucks. Excellent video though.

    Yeah the pickup shoe spring (if you can even call it that) is not great. The T cars do run pretty well on my Viper track, fun to drive and pretty quick. I figure I will trash them once the pickup shoes wear out. I bought mine just to try them out, probably did not need to get five of them...lol. Got them pretty cheap, two for 25.

    have you noticed any slower speeds after installing the N52 magnets? They certainly stick to the rails better ive noticed

    No issues at all with the car slowing down. The T chassis actually has a pretty powerful armature in it, If I remember correctly it is a 3.5 ohm arm.
