I have a couple of questions that might influence my voting.

For the NSR 997 Road or Rally track proposed race, is there a limitation on whether it is a sidewinder or anglewinder?

For the Revoslot, Group 2 race, I could run my Datsun 510, correct?

And last, if selected, any advice on what to run for the Racer Sideways Group 5? I am such a threat on the track I know you will be hesitant to advise. 😉

I agree with the points scoring for the series with big/rally heats.  An alternative that also breaks the 6 race mold, run four races on each track with two in each direction on each track.  The “reverse” direction on the big track would make it even more Targa Florio difficult.  I’m happy either way.  That really would differentiate the club champion for 2025.

Some Cars available for the 67-69 Targa Florio:

Slot.it Chaparral 2f

Slot.it Ford GT40

412P

SCX has a Lancia Fulvia, and a Fiat 124, George Turner has an MGC-GT kit. I will post more as I find them.

There are also the Ford FT350, and Lola T70 from Thunderbolt, but they are too far out of scale.

I am excited! Let’s vote so I can go shopping!

Kim, I think you can find results for the races from the articles.  The podium pictures and race result tables tell the story.  If you notice someone finishing in top two or three places you can ask that person what they drove.  In some cases the car right out of the box was best and in others the owner put a great deal of effort, parts, testing and driving skill into the results.  Some members buy two cars for the class plus two or three extra motors.  I am not that member!  Some of us also have cars built by better racers.

I want to go shopping in at least one class, the 997 Porsche in the same livery as my 1970 Targa Florio Porsche 908/3 roadster

See you at the next race I hope.  We are in need of a red car.

How much longer are we leaving the poll open? I am wondering about the results.

Is this where the polling results will be posted? (They were sent out on the mailing list). Will there be new thread set up?

Responding to some things said in the email thread about the poll results –

I haven’t been doing this long enough to be a good judge of the F22 tires.  I am having a problem with my crown gear, but that might be because I lost my rear axle spacers and have not been using them.  Other people seem to have some problems.  That being said, we had a vote and they made the cut.  I know most of you have been doing this a lot longer me, but for my 2 cents I’d say the important thing is keeping it fair.  Sounds like these cars might have their quirks and those quirks are there for all of us; i.e. – it’s fair.

I agree that it’s a bummer Group C didn’t make the cut, but again we had a fair vote.

Finally (and I don’t know if this question can be answered now), seems like the Ferrari 512 and BMW could be the likely “go to” cars for the Racer Sideways Group 5 series.  Do we know if any cars will be banned?      I have Thanksgiving break coming up and trying to figure out which car to get so I can work on it.

An advantage to having only one rally event is it leaves more track idle time for scenic work to continue.

Group C is more a source of frustration than enjoyment for me, so I won’t miss it.

I am looking for a group 5 car as well. And I thought the Moslers were ugly!

I guess the major decisions left with regards to 2025 series are scheduling, race managers, and rules.

I volunteer to be race manager for Targa Florio, and I nominate Randy to be race manager for th Revoslot SCCA B Sedan (Group 2)

I voted for the top 4 of the top six.  I own some Targa Florio 1966-1969 cars without 3D chassis.  So I am set with buying a Revoslot Toyota GT-1.  I thought the vote was the decision maker.  Am I wrong?

We had a discussion at the October meeting that we could skip the Group C  class this year and bring it back in 2026, so I was not surprised it did not make the top 6.

I like the 70-73 Targa Florio cars better, but can wait a year.  I would like two rally races, but I do not want to sacrifice one of the chosen classes except the Toyota GT.  We can run the 66-69 rally series twice, for 7 classes, late in 2025 to let scenic work go forward.

With the Racer/Sideways GRP 5, I am not seeing any new cars with an inline configuration, only angle winder. Only angle winder motor pods as well. That being the case, will the series be open to angle winder? Some of us don’t have cars yet, and some of us (ahem) Ordered a car and did not find out until looking underneath.

I hope we will allow angle winder configuration. I have the BMW 320 Fruit of the Loom livery I want to run, and it is an angle winder.

Given my affinity for a certain color… this is what I’ll be running for Group 5

There are many Toyota GT1 cars available from the slot car dealers with various color schemes and car numbers.  Are we going to try to buy different cars and post them on our website to avoid duplication?  I liked that old process from my first few years when we ran one make and model each which made following my car easier.

I own the RevoSlot RS0210 Toyota GT – 1. It’s yellow with green, #99.

Kim – that will be an easy car to see on the track.  I might have to wear sunglasses.  Nice choice.

Marty

My GT1 arriving Nov. 25
