Sorry, #8880 isn't Y2K compliant.  The original (non-notched) #2 axles
will spontaneously combust on 2/29/00.  You should upgrade all older
Technic sets to use the newer notched #2 axles which are Y2K compliant.

(...) Along those lines, does anybody know if the 8880 Super Car has any Y2K problems? That is one of my favorite sets, and I don't want it to break a year from now. -Kekoa (28 years ago, 1-Jan-99, to lugnet.robotics)
