Don’t take this wrong, but if you buy your cars on ebay you should race them at ebay. If you race at Kings you should support Kings and try and buy from Kings. If you dont support Kings you may not have a place to race.
The way a proxy works is people from differnet geographical locations build cars based on certain criteria i.e. Touring cars, Pony cars, Slot.it Group C., etc. They build these cars to the best of their ability and then ship them to a central location. From there a list of hosts with tracks will then take all the cars from the participants and race them. These tracks are in all areas and regions. There are typically about 10 – 12 tracks in a series. The cars are shipped from one track to the next. From there is comes down to who can drive which car the best. This really comes down a who can make the smoothest cars that can be driven fast. It can be really frustrating at times but I’m in 2 proxy series right now.
Hope this helps.
I would have though so to, but i have a friend running the NSR Mosler with the angel winder setup, the 21400k with magnettic effect, standard gear ratio for this car when bought from NSR, air ride wheels and Slotit F22 tyres weight behind guide, and some either side of motor pod. Pod is tight and boby screws loose, and the thing flys around our track.
So i am starting to think that the 25K motor is to much for our track and that the extra tourque is good as if the car is setup right gives that extra punch out of the corners.
I do admit the 25K on the straight catches up, but lots of time is lost in the corners. or big track is not what id call a speed track.
I did some testing on the weekend and did get my car down to the low 6sec laps, but not quick enough, as his car first lap 5.9sec and then went down to a low 5.6sec lap 🙁 so as i said im thinking that the long can motor might be the key.
Also i have been reading on some other blogs that drivers say there is to much speed from the 25K.
but before i change i will try some soild rims and hope this works.
Thank you for the help.
Im not sure how to send or post photos of our track but would love to share and let you see the four tracks we race on
I am sadly unable to read the picture you uploaded, is it possible for you to email me a copy thanks.
I was able to get the hollow axle in & started truing the tires when I ran out of time. I’m back up at the track today to sort the car and get it set for the next race.
By the way I was able to tune the Classic GT Mustang Boss 302 and get it .4 tenths faster and more consistent over the first race it was in, still need to find another .4 tenths.
So Bob are you taking orders for boxes then? I would like one.
As you built before is fine, would like the translucent finish like Brians but metallic gray with gold racing stripes.
Name a price.
Imagine going down the highway and noticing a Porsche 962 in the rear view mirror; I would probably check 3 or 4 times to be sure I wasn’t going nuts.
Ary here btw …
Japanese men with lots of money will get just about anything. Although I know there was a street version of the 962 that was created by Porsche back in the late 80s early 90s for this purpose. I can’t even imagine the maintanance cost associated with something like that.
