The Thunderjet Ultra-G chassis is Auto World's adaptation of the classic "pancake" design, originally developed by Aurora in the early days of electric slot racing. Auto World expanded the design by adding a Neodymium magnet for better control. Still immensely popular today, entire slot racing events are created around this chassis. Closer to true HO scale (1:87), ThunderJet Ultra-G bodies attach to the chassis using two small screws. The Thunderjet Ultra-G is retro slot racing at its best!
