Re: whats needed..

I guess the two recent races in question recently in Melbourne were unappealing to me as it was clear that most interstate racers are unable to attend both races within approx a month.

Re: Wedding Bells Today

Congrats to you both Ellen and Dave, you are a lucky man indeed Dave to find a woman who would be willing to marry a slotcar racer. Does she know about it?

Re: Coupe bodies Next ?

I'm with Hutch, if you feel the need to change to Coupe Bodies fine, lets not tinker with other rules which will make the class more labour intensive. Racing slotcars is way more fun than endlessly working on them.

Re: Coupe bodies Next ?

Rules and more rule changes. :( The more rules you have and the more often you change rules the less I tend to be interested in racing. The rules were fine and don't need tinkering with. I'm personally not interested in continuously having to tinker about with slotcars to suit some new rule change. ...

Re: HSC SPRAY 27'S AND OMO

I guess we wing type racers are too busy doing other stuff than to waffle away on here. There is stuff to be built, endless packages of setups to be magnetised, magnets to be glued and baked, bearings to replace, bodies to paint, wing, tape, lead wires to change, tyres to true, controllers to mainta...

Who built it, is it one of Kim Axton's?

Funny how the 3 podium cars have the motor running backwards. This really is quite mysterious.
