Overdrive makes replacement interiors for cars that have super heavy interiors. For example I have an interior ion a Fly car that weighs almost as much as my
Scaleauto Toyota's entire body. What they have done is made a photographic copy of the interior to which you attach a plastic head from a driver. The
examples look really cool.

I have a couple of these interiors and from 6 feet away and moving, there is little difference... except weight.
I tried a BMW CSL and an Alfa GTAm, both which have heavy , detailed interiors. GenXRacer |

Every once in a great while I'll tune a car for serious racing, and something like this would be great. No need to make a new interior out of paper or
thin lexan, and it doesn't need painting. I doubt I'd have any general need for it, but it's good to have it available for those who could use it
more often.
Dan, I'm really curious whether one of these interiors in a Carrera Porsche GT3 would even it up against a Scalextric GT3...

I was wondering the same thing. I don't see why someone could not make his own very easily on an inkjet or color laser. May try it later.
BTW, there are other things on the site as well.

As well as that, Overdrive also, doesn't pay their bills.
I sent them over 900.00 worth of my product (at 55% off reatail) over 4 years ago, and have never been paid, despite many emails and requests for my money. Use that information as you will.

I was very interested in their light kits until you gave us this news Al. They get none of my money either!

No money here either. I don't have much use for people who rip others off. It just isn't very nice.
