In the 1970, Carrera offered 1:24, 1:32 and 1:60 scales for slot cars, and the slot-free "Servo" systems which allowed cars to switch lanes, guided by the guard rails on the outside. Due to the many systems offered, and fewer customers (Generation), Neuhierl had to sell his company in 1985, and took his own life. The new owners sold rather cheap products.

2010 Mazda MX-0 Concept Design


When it comes to driving, many factors come into play. The 2010 Mazda MX-0 focuses on minimum weight for superior cornering and acceleration. This model is based on a previous model, the MX-5, serving as its benchmark for a light-weight but fast car. Based on the MX-5 the design team was able to replace most of its components with simpler ones.
Lightweight materials were used to efficiently reduce its weight but a car that is too light might end up tipping over when cornering quickly whereas a car that is too heavy might not run fast enough.
The Mazda MX-0 is a lightweight car and together with high-torque electric motors makes this car both light and fast and by using less energy and has a minimized use of raw materials, this makes this car environment and economy friendly as well. A correct power to weight ratio together with resource conservation is observed in this car for best performance, optimum driving comfort and being good for the environment.
