Pedro51 Posted August 22, 2019 Report Share Posted August 22, 2019 Unfortunately Bahia Vista won’t be available for Fly Classics next week due to an unexpected trip to Christchurch for family reasons. We are then away in Sydney/Canberra for 2 weeks. I will have forgotten how to slot car by the time I get back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slotmadmac Posted August 22, 2019 Report Share Posted August 22, 2019 Sorry boys - I can't host next week. Fly back into the Bay around 7pm on Thursday so can hopefully join in for the last couple of races if someone else puts their hand up. My shed is open Saturday from 10-12 for anyone who wants to come over and check out the cars for sale. The track will be on for anyone want to run some cars too. Quote Podiums are for short people.

Paul Briggs Posted August 24, 2019 Report Share Posted August 24, 2019 Hi everyone, sorry to say that this is my farewell. I have enjoyed my time with everyone in the club and the racing. However I unfortunately have a slightly competitive streak. I do not need to be at the front but I do like to feel that I am doing well. At the moment I am tending to be last or close to it, and this is mainly because I am not an instinctive, natural driver. I need lots and lots of driving practice to achieve a reasonable standard. This really means building my own track and unfortunately that is not something you can do while living in a caravan. I made a conscious choice to live as I do as it allowed me to retire slightly early. So compromises have to be made and this is one of them. I wish you all the best for all your slot car adventures. If you are interested in any of my cars, controllers or slot car related equipment please get in touch with Mac. Cheers, Paul Briggs.

SlotsNZ Posted August 25, 2019 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2019 Rule Number One - No one buy any of his gear it is verboten as I think they say in German Rule Two - Join the CTRP society - I'll tell what the acronym stands for later Rule Three - Taking volunteers for a round the clock roster to guard his site so no-one passes and breaks rule One Rule Four - Read Munter's post above Rule Five - Re-read the first four rules. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cw3CzmBw8hM Last thing I remember, I was Running for the door I had to find the passage back to the place I was before 'Relax' said the night man, 'We are programmed to receive.

slotmadmac Posted August 25, 2019 Report Share Posted August 25, 2019 Rule Number One - No one buy any of his gear it is verboten as I think they say in German It's a bit late. I paid Paul for the gear on Saturday and now most is sold or committed. Slotmadmac trading has been in full effect. With 74 cars to move already on my plate I needed to move fast. And I did.

Ryan Posted August 27, 2019 Report Share Posted August 27, 2019 My 6 year old has created a great new class that would be good for our next enduro event. You get a scaley that still has its front and back lights. You then turn off all the lights so it is pitch black. And you race. I'm only 0.24 seconds off my normal muscle car in these conditions.

Capri-corn7 Posted August 27, 2019 Report Share Posted August 27, 2019 I don’t have many lights bars still fitted, but could be a fun house class. With these eyes I might need to eat some more carrots. Hey unrelated. Can I confirm allowable motor for DTM. The DTM Slot.its appear to come with this one. Motor: Slot.it V12/4 21,000rpm 150g*cm 7.9 watts @12V Versus the 21,500rpm orange bell at 9.1w. I think we agreed to stick to the lower powered one yeah?
