I have one ScaleAuto car I bought used. In general, I was impressed by the overall quality and adjustability. They also get high marks from the experienced slot car racers. There are some things I didn't like... plastic front wheels, plastic gears and the guide assembly. But, I always replace the guide with the Sloting Plus universal guide, I may replace gears and I can live with the plastic wheels. I am always looking for a new brand to buy, because the selection offered by the current brands I like is very limited. So, I have been looking at websites that sell ScaleAuto and it's kind of confusing.
They have what appears to be multiple product lines with different quality. Some say nothing, some say Home Series and some have an R designation, but that even has versions (R, R1.7, R2). It appears the R versions are better than others, but it is hard to tell by the information given. There is also a considerable range in dates for when these cars were produced, from 2010 to current. Generally, newer dates have improvements over older dates, but that isn't always true (Sideways is a good example). Can somebody explain all of this to me?
