drw21 Posted August 25, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2015 They pulled out 2 weeks ago. There will still be 8 Races to make up the series as normal. So business as usual. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charlesx Posted August 25, 2015 Report Share Posted August 25, 2015 Yes sorry about Taranaki everybody but our current numbers racing at moment and other practical considerations made running of event impossible. Hopefully we will be back next year. Regards Chas Le Breton Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SlotsNZ Posted September 3, 2015 Report Share Posted September 3, 2015 Round 3 of the NZ Group 5 proxy was run tonight on Chris' track. Sorry I left my camera behind, so I don't have any pics, but here are qualifying and race results. Overall we feel the standard of cars is up on last year. I haven't compared overall race laps run between the 2 years. I have sent the results spreadsheet up to Westy to do the series standings.

slotmadmac Posted September 3, 2015 Report Share Posted September 3, 2015 Thanks for the chance to run your cars. There were lots of sweet drives but my picks of the night were J-Macs awesome 935 closely followed by the 935s of Tony Cook and P Slacker. There's a common thread there.

David Carter Posted September 3, 2015 Report Share Posted September 3, 2015 I have to agree with Mac Jmac car was my favorite followed by P Slacker thanks for the drive guys Quote Holdens rule the rest just drool slot cars are my drug, ATCC/Bathurst proxy host NZ Grp5 proxy host.

Wobble Posted September 3, 2015 Report Share Posted September 3, 2015 Thanks for the run guys. 21 cars 5 - 5.5secs in qualifying is pretty impressive, though the racing sorted them a bit more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
branco Posted September 3, 2015 Report Share Posted September 3, 2015 Cheers for the round guys. There is certainly some close racing in this Proxy. Can't wait to get a drive of those pesky new 935's.

aquakiwi Posted September 3, 2015 Report Share Posted September 3, 2015 Thanks for running and hosting, those Monte Carlos don't seem to quite make the grade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smithy Posted September 3, 2015 Report Share Posted September 3, 2015 Hi aqua. You had no grip and this caused the drivers to take a little bit more care just to get round the track. Dave Carters car had a completely different chassis for his car and was consistent for his set up . And was a sidewinder. I have mine set up in inline and will enter if there is a next year. Will be interesting. Quote I'm addicted to Slot Cars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmac Posted September 4, 2015 Report Share Posted September 4, 2015 Thanks for running the round guys, yeah the Porsches are nice slot cars to drive if not overpowered. I do agree Mark that it could be geared up somewhat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drw21 Posted September 6, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 6, 2015 (edited) Thanks heaps guys for completing Race 3. Here are the updated points ................

Orakei Racer Posted September 7, 2015 Report Share Posted September 7, 2015 Thanks to the Napier team for running the round. My 935 was obviously the exception to the norm. Had to re-do tires just before giving the car to Dave at start of the series, which totally messed up all the settings, not really a happy car. Oh well, always next year.
