The new driver figure is way better. Nice to also see the updated guide flag and DPR chip option. Also noted is the new 1.5mm magnet, a trend with Scaley's current cars.

I like the blue one a lot. The upgrades (particularly the DPR capability) are very good. The new magnet position looks to be a bit lower than in previous version(magnet seems to sit in a little 'pocket') so the actual magnetic downforce might not be as diminished as the thinner magnet would initially suggest.

Gordon,

On checking my car it did come with the 1.5mm magnet. The older Camaro still has alot more down force than the new chassis. I will bring it on Thursday.
