Das Speed vs Silver Horse vs PN Racing — what Aussie Mini-Z racers buy
A practical comparison of three 1:28 cottage brands we stock in Australia — when to reach for Das Speed, Silver Horse RC, or PN Racing.
Three names come up constantly in Mini-Z / 1:28 pits: Das Speed, Silver Horse RC, and PN Racing. Here is how we think about them at Tassie Mini-Z Club — and where to buy them in Australia from our shop.
| Das Speed | Silver Horse RC | PN Racing | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vibe | Swiss precision wheels & chassis bits | US performance Mini-Z / 1:28 | Big-catalogue race brand (World Cup scene) |
| Reach for when | Grip, rolling stock, pit feel | Chassis / performance upgrades | Bodies, pinions, race hardware |
| AU stock | Club imports what we run | Club-tested SKUs | Selected lines we race |
Quick picks
- Transmitter / wheel feel: start with our Das Speed aisle (including the popular transmitter wheel).
- Building a faster club car: mix Silver Horse with class-legal rules — ask at a meet if you are unsure.
- Bodies and gearing: PN Racing is the usual conversation; see also PN World Cup explained.
Also stocked: MWX Performance and Xbility.
