These are a little smaller than I imagined.
BTW: Where was the 512BB when I needed it!? I bet that body weighs 1/2 to 1/3 what my Carerra shell weighs!

(Leroy Grumman)Sadly, SlotForum doesn’t offer a RSS feed. I have dropped in NBC Motorsports for now. It looks like SCI is having issues now… wondering if Alan has shut down that feed.

(Leroy Grumman)Don’t need subtitles for that one… Awesome! (And what a way to start a 24hr race!)

(Leroy Grumman)Wow! And cute as a button!
I think she is saying “Bimmer” for BMW.

(Leroy Grumman)If we do it as a the El Piloto series we just spec it out… Even if we don’t do it as El Piloto the availability of parts will keep it fairly close to a spec series. I would at least spec the chassis and motor. The wheels and tires might wind up being a defacto spec, but folks can experiment.
The GT class has the most variation in bodies for a standard series, we could stay traditional for an El Piloto series with a Group C pack, or we could go with Porsche GT3 cars, or even something like a Lamborghini Murcielago, or Ferrari 599. Kinda mix things up a bit. 😉
I think that even if the cost to build one is break-even with the BRM’s we’ll realize savings in parts as the gears should last beyond one race.

(Leroy Grumman)I want to run a larger scale as part of our 2014 series, but I would rather run a 1:27/28 scale using the Kyosho Mini-Z bodies on the PN Slot Group Mini-Z chassis.
The price of entry is similar, probably less. Less than $120 for a chassis and body. Wheels and tires for another $40 to 50?
Food for thought.

(Leroy Grumman)Ha!! That is awesome! (Jo was yelling at me from the other room that it was too loud!)

(Leroy Grumman)Looks great! We are going to have some good looking GT1’s on the grid.

(Leroy Grumman)Oh! I thought you were running a Radical, or is that Austin’s entry?

(Leroy Grumman)What is the ruling on the Scalextric Pro Performance kits?
Available in Audi R8 and Aston Martin DB9 variants.
Personally, I think they can be allowed, as they seem to be nothing more than a white-kit with a parts bin. Might want to spec the wheels so they are scale…
