The Hummers still keep coming

Post by wixwacing »

The manufacturer who bought you the first slot hummer in 1/32 scale still has the mill churning them out. This time it is the Rod Hall racing Hummer entry from the 2003 Baja California race.

I'm out in the back yard, burning food!!

When I win, it's because of my talent, not my car or my controller!

Just ordered this one to keep company of the first release of powerslot hummers
These are quite the torquey beasts-they will catwalk for a few feet(at leased on a wood track)
Will have to set up the Ninco off road track to see how they do
They are sure a big beast,about the same size as the Fly Trucks
I see that a third release is planned for november(check out www.cincyslots.com)

Hi Verne

Are the Powerslot ones bigger than the Nincos?

Powerslot Hummers are the H1 designation(real ones are able to climb out of a twenty foot ditch) Nincos are H2 and are a bit smaller as the real ones are smaller and used more blazer parts
There is a H3 which is a modifyed Chevy blazer -but nobody is making that in a slotcar
Also Avantslot is in the prosess of making an off road support truck using two motors
(one for the front wheels and one for the back)as seen in this website(2nd article down)http://raidslotworld.blogspot.com or hope this works/translates (http://translate.google.com/translate?h ... n%26sa%3DG)
Check out the sidebar for powerslots reviews as well as others
