I was talking about Aurora. They may be speed shifters though, which are just about the same thing as Super MT.

never heard of them until yesterday, they have two cogs? How does that work?

Aurora used a special terminal track and controllers which reversed the polarity. The Speed-Shifters used a special rear which had a low and high gear, they went the same way when the polarity was switched so you went fron low gear to high gear from your controller. I think they were set up with "Hurst Shifters" controllers or you could use the Turn-On controllers as well which came later in the 1980s or so with the Blazin' Brakes (rear brake lights lit up and car just freely spun until you left off), Cat's Eyes (geared so headlights would turn on and off) and Stop! Police (Reversing police car with pin in rear of Magnatraction police chassis). I think the problem was when you were at speed and shifted, the armature changed rotation and thus you lost your momentum, etc. All of them used a chassis similar to the Aurora Super MT (inline) except for the cop cars. You can run these cars as-is on standard HO slot car set-ups just that you lose the features of each.

P.S. I tested one of these special chassis once on a long HO raceway at a hobby shop with the clutch-type mechanism to test out the coast factor. I had roughly the same speed as others but with the pin always engaging the rear gear, it would pop the guide pin out of the slot if you gunned it on a start.

Not had time for a proper look (gotta go to work to save up for all the planned slot car buys!) but I saw G-plus chassis not SGP and MagnaTraction (pancake) not Super MagnaTraction (inline).

Because we are about to sell out of them.......

Nothing more aggravating then searching the web for hours, days, weeks trying to find an item and then when you finally do, find out it's out of stock! :(
