This is a "pull back and go" Finn McMissile toy that I have converted to a slot car. Although Scalextric and Carrera are both making Cars 2 slot cars, they are both making only Lightning McQueen and Francesco Bernoulli. Good thing the pull back and go toys are almost exactly 1/32 scale/size cars! After some modifications to the toy body and an old Scalextric Audi TT chassis, I was able to get this car in working order. I hope Scalextric or Carrera see fit to make more Cars 2 slot cars, but I don't expect them to, at least not in 1/32 scale.
:) I've made one of these too.
I also did Lightning McQueen & Francesco Bernoulli, all from those pull back toys.
I had finished Lightning when I found out about the Scalextric & Carrera ones, lol.

@paspax Yeah, I went ahead and picked up the Carrera ones. I'm planning to re-do Finn, and also make a Mater, Jeff Corvette, and Holly Shiftwell, which I found at a Fred Meyer store. That will make six! :) FTWDK, 6 is how many Scalextric Digital cars can run at once max.
