fraz, I'm working on that problem right now and have it mostly solved on Mario, (Wario is even higher centre of gravity, so he will be harder). You will notice that there are two small weights on the side -- that works very well, and I've been able to drop the weight down to a 1/4 OZ on each side from 1/2 OZ. Wario is still 1/2 OZ each side though. I have also gone with a black bumper now, so it is less obtrusive ...and I managed to adapt the wide wheels from the donor slot car "Mario Kart".
The bumper system is being refined for our in-school programs and is working well also. I'll have pictures soon ... and Carrera also has Peach and Luigi models coming out in September. I'm also working on a Mario-themed track .
I have to admit, I love the concept also, the Porsche body won't be going back on.
