      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. 😕

          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.

                    Oh… 😯

                    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…

                          I have marinated the driver in Maker’s Mark, carefully baked him according to manufacturer’s instructions, and properly sealed the window to prevent any more antics.

                                I’m in. But I’m still on the fence regarding which car. It will either be the Michelin Sauber or the TicTac Porsche. Need a few more test laps after making a few more tuning mods before I can say for sure.

                                  Different era and class, but my 1:24 Corvette came in this week. I’ll be running it Thursday night for the first time.
