Okay, so it likes like at least Q1 and H1 will be proxy series, so this will likely mean series where we don’t mind someone else driving our car. For new series, we will (hopefully) be able to drive our own cars. For Q1, Group C should fit the bill, but we will need another “old” series for H1, and possibly, Q2
Given that, and input so far for proposed series, our schedule might look something like this:
Q1 Slot.it Group C
Q2 Group 5?? RevoSlot?? BRM Group C 1/24??
H1 BRM Group C 1/24?? Group 5?? RevoSlot??
Q3 NSR Porsche 908–both tracks??
Q4 Tourist Trophy?? BRM Mini Cars 1/24?? RevoSlot?? NSR GT3?? BRM TransAM??
Rally series?? NSR Formula Cars??
H1 NSR Formula Cars?? BRM Mini Cars 1/24?? RevoSlot?? NSR GT3?? BRM Trans AM?? Rally series??
As you can see, the Q2 and H1 options are more limited and I think we need to decide those two series first, then see how we will fill out the year. Once we decide these two series (and Q1 Group C), that will cover the first six months of the year. That would give us time if we need to change any of the series for the second half of the year.
Also, as Marty posted some pictures of the Policar F1 on the NSR Formula 86/89 forum, I would say that, for now, I am much more in favor of the NSR F1. Several of us already have cars. I especially like the generic design of the NSR, which lends it to a greater range of liveries, including 80’s and 90’s Indy cars. The Policar is a more accurate modern F1 car, but that gives narrower options. There also looks to be a lot of parts that could break off, and the double rear axle gearing is an unknown.
I will be sending out an email tomorrow as a reminder for the Annual Zoom Meeting this coming Saturday, after the Houston proxy race.
