I’m up for a go at 1/24. It will finally get me to finish picking up the tuning bits I’ve been meaning to order.

I’m kind of itching to run a vintage F1 race too.

Nice!

And for some reason I suddenly have the strangest urge to go smoke a cigarette… 😕

I just bought a Vellman 0-15 vdc 3 amp power supply from Frys for bench testing. ($79) I didn’t see an Pyramid PS26KX power supplies when I was there, however there were others. (Might save you the trip.)

I thought it interesting that the white bodied cars will be available first. (Has it been that way in the past?) Seems like a stroke of genius on Slot.it’s part. Get the car and chassis out there for the custom livery guys to create the buzz and then release the stable.

I can hear my wallet creaking under the strain. 😕

Huh? In the first post of this thread, you even stated it would be CCW!

Hmmm…. So I did… OK…. just move on along… nothing to see here…. 😳

Yes… Good to have you Bruce. The rules allow you to discard one race, so you’re still not too far down by missing the first one. (Assuming the rest go well for you, of course!) 😉

Hmmm…. they have the rotation wrong. IIRC, our track will be a clockwise lap and that one was CCW.

That is indeed pretty! Looks like the Porsche factory teams will be sporting that orange stripe on all the hybrids. The 911 hybrid had that too, but with white body.

Here’s a link to the slide show of the unveiling. Simply beautiful.

Well… a little more comic-relief: Tried to sand a BRM rear tire using my normal method of a dremel and a sanding block. Not a good plan. Might need to order a new tire. Threw chunks of rubber all over my workbench. 🙁 😳

I have a hard time understanding why any of these companies charge for a catalog. Simple cost of doing business…
