# Pfft.
Mine never worked properly.
He'd just hit the bottom of the ramp and skid across the floor sideways.

The winding handle was far too close to the ground.

A mate of mine had the dragster and the chopper (oo-er). Neither of them worked properly either. The dragster was supposed to wheelie out of the ramp and deploy a parachute when the front wheels hit the ground. Never worked.

The chopper was so nose-light that all it ever did was fall over backwards. Pile of shite.

Didn't stop us playing with them for hours though.
