BSRT's G-Jet©  -  Voted H.O. Slot Car Product of the Year!
THE BSRT G-JET CAR IS HERE!
If you’ve not already heard about the G-Jet car, what rock have you been hiding under? The BSRT G-Jet is proving to be the biggest thing to hit H.O. slot racing in decades. What’s all the excitement about? BSRT has put together a brilliant combination of components to come up with a “non-magnet” version of the G3 car, dubbed the G-Jet. Far from being simply a magnet car with the traction magnets removed, it’s an entirely new concept in many ways. In one fell swoop, BSRT has moved the goalposts for all H.O. slot car manufacturer’s and proves, once again, why they’ve been the technology leader in H.O. slot racing since their startup in the early 1970’s.

Why a G-Jet? With the speed of today’s high-performance magnet cars increasing so much, even in box stock form, the release of this new, non-traction magnet car has been perfectly timed. Not only does it run at a much more realistic speed, we can honestly say it’s the most fun we’ve ever had running an H.O. scale slot car. BSRT pre-released enough of the cars this past year for a variety of G-Jet races to take place around the country. The G-Jet cars were a featured class at the HOPAC Western States H.O. Championships this past July where fifty racers took part having a great time running this class of car. Last April, the East Coast MARC racing group ran an Enduro using the G-Jet with samples of what the production G-Jet bodies would look like. G-Jets were run at John Duda’s very popular “Outhouse Invitational” event this past summer. Earlier this year, G-Jets were run at all the stops on the HOPAC Pacific Northwest Tour that ran from January through July. At this point in time, the car’s potential has been proven, it’s well sorted, and it’s currently in stock ready for immediate shipment.

The first BSRT G-Jet car released is the #915 Ready-to-Race Rolling Chassis. The G-Jet Rolling Chassis includes the complete car, less body. It comes with pre-installed body posts so any painted clear plastic body of your choice will fit the car. If you don’t want to run a vacuum formed body, you can always remove the body posts and snap-on a Tomy AFX hard plastic body. Any body that fits a Tomy Super G-Plus Car will also fit the G-Jet (plus assorted other Turbo and SRT Tomy bodies). Cost for the G-Jet Ready-to-Race Rolling Chassis is $54.95. Place an order with Scale Auto today and give the G-Jet a try.

One very important note to keep in mind regarding the G-Jet: the G-Jet is not saddled with having to run on expensive, difficult to find 18-volt power. It's been carefully engineered to run on a true 12-volts. This is an important selling point for the G-Jet since most H.O. racers already know it’s much easier to find good 12-volt power versus the odd 18-volts currently run with magnet cars. If you don’t have a 12-volt power supply, BSRT is offering the “official” G-Jet 12-volt power supply which sells for just $28.00. This power supply will give your layout more than enough power to run up to six G-Jet cars on any size H.O. layout. Providing even more of a bonus, you’ll likely find your current cars run at more realistic speeds on 12-volts as well. Get in on the fun today - realistic racing at a realistic speed.

OFFICIAL 12-VOLT POWER SUPPLY FOR THE BSRT G-JET!
One of the nicest features of the new BSRT G-Jet car is that you're not stuck having to find a decent 18-volt power supply. By designing the G-Jet to run on 12-volts, BSRT has made it much easier for the H.O. racer to obtain a power supply. The BSRT PS-12 Power Supply (shown here) is the official 12-volt power supply for racing G-Jet cars.
It features a real 12-volts of power (many 12-volt power supplies are actually 13.8 volts) with an adjustable knob that also allows 9, 7.5, 6, 4.5, and 3-volts. This makes it perfect for breaking in cars as well as turning down the power for kids or novices to try a G-Jet. The best part is, the cost for this power supply is only $28.00.
