Roll on October...

I'm struggling to release the car from the base! There is a diagram that suggests it's a left hand thread fixing screw, but it's very tight in both directions!

Any tips?

Ha! Glad I'm not the only one!

I had exactly the same problem.

After multiple frustrating attempts to detach mine in the suggested way I  ended up sawing through the blessed hold-down pin!'

Having done so I found it 'should' only need a quarter turn then pull out - but would it? No!

That's it. Use a coin to turn it 90°, then the pin will go down and you will have to pull out the car because it is still remaining fixed to the box.

I tried using more effort than I was comfortable with for a plastic toy. 

Think it will be the hacksaw blade solution.

hehehehe 
this is usually my solution 
a succession of increasingly larger hammers 
always works for me !  Thumbup

I’m getting worried now, since the proxy Rally Sprint event. These rally cars seem to be getting addictive.

Very nice. Bodyshell looks a lot like the Fly 911 though.
