The joureny took about miutes longer than last time when got mpg with air on at avg. Rod wrote have seen on my Aveo up to miles per gallon in the city and an average of 30 miles in the city. By the way about 30mpg in the CIty with no air. All the bestNicholasPS the mpg is true, we filled up at start and topped up at home…both my wife and were surprised. am still in college and am trying to push as much horse power out of it as can while trying to stay on budget.

But Im sure that the mileage in the city it is not so easy to better than 26MPG, but is possible. in Flanders, New JerseyReply .Report Abuse. Judge it!.

think that GM made good choice buying Daewoo, and not inventing the wheel again. Sorry for my english, hope my comment can help youReply .Report Abuse. Judge it!.2Apr 2, 2006 Yes, on the highway you can 40MPG or better. all the way to the back with Magnaflow muffler. between 3233 MPG.

That mus tell you somwthing. you can hear the exhaust in the inside of the car by replacing the factory air filter with K&N and removing couple of plastic tubing inside the air box, that increase the efficiency of the air going in and installed custom back exhaust. No air on and cruising at an average of 30 miles in the city. By the way about 30mpg in the CIty with no air. All the bestNicholasPS the mpg is true, we filled up at start and topped up at home…

Judge it!.2Apr 2, 2006 Yes, on the highway is very very good, even if drive regularly with 120140 Kmh. I have all season tires and Im very satified. Reliability ? Is done mine anyway in south corea, but they are doing small cars for decades.

The response on the higway is better than before improving the air coming out of the engine and really waking up that little four cylinder engine.

SCX 63160 Renault 8 Gordini Monte Carlo ‘69

admin — Sun, 18 Jan 2009 18:23:41 +0000

The Renault 8 was first introduced in 1962 as a small family car. It was built in various models up until 1971. The R8 was one of the first small sedans to include 4 wheel disc brakes as standard equipment. These cars were assembled by Alfa Romeo in Italy, and marketed by Renault. In 1964 a Gordini tuned R8 was introduced. This raised the horsepower from 44 bhp in stock trim to over 90 bhp. These cars were originally only available in blue and included two white stick-on racing stripes. The Gordini R8 was further revised in 1967 to provide 100 bhp. This latter version of the Gordini is the car SCX has chosen to model and is based on one which competed in the 1969 Monte Carlo Rally. I couldn’t find photo reference for that particular competitor, but there is a wealth of photographs on the internet of the R8 in road racing and rally guise. SCX has done a good job of rendering this particular model. The paint is up to their usual standard with some nice painted and chrome accents like rain gutters, window trim, and bumpers. The half tray interior has some detail and leaves lots of room on the chassis for lead placement.

As a magnet car, the R8 is totally stuck down. My test track, Maxport II located at Mini Grid in Toronto, is a 22m Sport track operated at 11V. I only needed to blip in the tightest hairpin corners and could lap my test track in 8.5s. It could be run flat out otherwise. This car is in the zone with the SCX SEAT 131 Abarth (8.2s) and Alpine A110 (8.7s). On Mini Grid’s Magnet Marshal the R8 pulled 273g of magnetic downforce and tipped the scales at only 74g with the magnet installed. As has become the norm with SCX rally cars the R8 has bright multiple headlights and illuminated tail lights. The excellent magnet performance and bright lights (as well as durable construction) will make this a popular car for kids.

The chassis for this car is a 1 piece design with the motor mounted solidly to it. Since I prefer racing slot cars without traction magnets so I removed the bar magnet from the R8. My lap time increased dramatically to 11.6s. The car was easy to slide through the corners which is surprising for such a tall, narrow car. I cleaned up the minimal flash on the plastic wheels and sanded the tires which reduced my lap time to 10.5s. The Gordini’s body is held on with 4 screws: 1 each in the nose and tail, as 1 on each side. I removed the side screws, and loosened the nose and tail screws half a turn. This bought me another tenth of a second. I’m sure that tuning with weight and fitting better tires would even further improve the car’s lap times. In stock form with minimal tuning this car could run head to head with the likes of a NINCO Cobra (10.4s), 550 Spyder (10.4s), Fly Porsche 911 (10.5s), and TeamSlot Lancia Stratos (10.6s).

Overall, I really like this car. It’s an interesting subject and nicely rendered model that runs very well both with and without traction magnets. SCX got it right by not overpowering this car and by putting straight axles and round wheels on it. I think it would be great to see SCX bring out some Pro wheels for their vintage sports and rally cars. These parts would be ideal hobbyists who want to take their tuning a step further and complement what is already a very good car.
