My local hobby shop just got the Nascar series Mini-Z in today! Now, I'm not a big fan of Nascar, going in circles, but these are super nice! The detail to the bodies is amazing, the wheels and tires are scaled just right, question is. Do they turn right? Or only left? LOL! Seriously, another great peice to add to ones collection. I might be interested in one if the rest of my racing group get's into theme. Right now, I'm interested in an F1.

What I see is the diff mounted on the left side, as well as the inverted motor connectors. Any reason to this? Optimizing left turns?

ROFL...don't see any real difference other than giving consumer another excuse to spend on new motor mount.

Having he motor and diff on the left side of the car will allow it to turn left better. In doing this you need to reverse the motor wires so that the motor will rotate in the correct direction.
