FAQs
Is this car compatible with all Scalextric tracks?
It is compatible with all standard 1:32 scale Scalextric analog tracks.
Does this model come with a digital chip pre-installed?
No, this is an analog model, but it is 'Digital Plug Ready' (DPR), meaning it can be upgraded for digital use easily.
Can I use this car on other brands of track?
While it can run on most 1:32 scale slot tracks, performance may vary depending on rail width and voltage differences.
How do I replace the braids?
The braids are held in the guide blade. Simply slide the old ones out and thread new standard Scalextric replacement braids through the slots.
What is the benefit of the Magnatraction?
Magnatraction uses a magnet to pull the car toward the metal rails, providing extra downforce to prevent the car from sliding out during fast turns.
Troubleshooting
The car is sluggish or stalls frequently
Clean the metal track rails and ensure the pickup braids on the bottom of the car are fanned out to make better contact.
Car deslots during high-speed cornering
Verify that the Magnatraction magnet is securely seated and clear of metallic debris that might be affecting its magnetic pull.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Mustang GT3 remains in top condition, perform these routine checks:
- Track Setup: Ensure your track connections are secure. If the car stutters, check for electrical continuity across track joints.
- Digital Upgrade: To convert for digital play, remove the base chassis cover to reveal the digital chip housing and install a standard Scalextric digital plug (sold separately).
- Maintenance: Regularly remove dust and debris from the braids located under the front guide blade using a soft cloth or brush to maintain consistent power delivery.
- Storage: Keep the model in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the livery and plastic bodywork from fading or warping.
