Hello Paul,

Is it likely that you may make an S-Can pod that is 'end-bell drive' to suit Scalextric motors? i.e. similar to the pod used in Fly Classic sidewinders.

Slot.It stopped making the EBD S-Can sidewinder pods quite a few years ago, then Devis 3D in the USA produced them (and other configurations) for a while before ceasing production  of all their slot car products.

As I may have mentioned in my PM a few weeks back, I tried to purchase Devis 3D pods from a US supplier but couldn't get them to understand what end-bell drive meant.

I recall that at the time I was chasing the Devis pods one of our Forum members in New South Wales was also looking for the EBD pods in order to give his Scalextric cars a bit of a boost in performance.

Paul, I have one which is 1mm offset - may have some 0.5mm offset in cars, but you can fiddle around with the motor/axle shaft lines easily enough I guess.

Drop over any time and grab it.
