Bob, at this time we don’t have a spec tire for this series. The BRM tires didn’t work and the F30’s are too narrow.
Slot.it’s new F18 tire is about to hit the shelves and I’m just waiting on that to make a decision.
Marty,
There are no mandatory tires for Scalextric GT; the rule change is for the Slot.it Porsche 911 GT1 series, I will post in the appropriate topic.

… Why 7800 RPMs?
Roy,
My Group-C Slot.it has 15mm wheels and turns about ~8500 RPM at the wheel (fast car); since the Scalextric has 17mm wheels, which will travel farther per revolution, I thought that 7800RPM would be a good start. (I didn’t math check it) — Thanks for asking, I will add something about it in the article.
… When you increased weight how did that change the ratio?
Weight only slows the car down, it doesn’t change the gear ratio.
Jesus, Roy!!! I have just spat out my drink laughing.
HUHAUHAHUAUHAUHAUHAUHAUHA!!! Very nice avatar!
I saw that chassis and became instantly interested … until I saw the 37 euro price tag, which does not include the motor pod

Shawn,
This link (https://ditech-produktion.com/html/resinbodies_1_32.html) should help. 🙂
Gen 4 is what I assumed when we talked about Group 5.
Another 2 carts to the list:
Decon Monza
DeTomaso PanteraMy vote is to allow the Scalextric Pro cars. They come with all the mechanical parts you would need to fix a regular Scaley at a much lower cost, the drawback is that all Pro cars are white kits and will require painting.
Now, the Lamborghini Gallardo GT-R was only made as a high-impact car – we need to scratch that one from the list.
If we are calling dibs on cars; my car is the Audi R8 Phoenix Racing:
