So, when did Mini Wheels stop being published? was there a similar national publication after it?

Thanks Steve and Kim,

Enjoyed reading #13. It also proved again that my memory of Slot Racing at that time is completely shot! Too many mind altering drugs were being used at the time. I would have loved to have seen that 3 wheeler.

Sorry LB, don't know when MW ended, or anything similar came along after. I wasn't slotting in the 70s, so hopefully one of the legends from the era might know.

 

4 New additions

Mini Wheels; No. 8, No. 9, No. 11, No. 12.

3 More to come.

In Mini Wheels No 13 we seem to have 2 of page 9 and no page 10 .

[slotbaker 9]

Well spotted Mr Daniels.

You passed the test.

 

No, I goofed up.

It was a late night when I did that one, and I'll fix'er up.

 

Thanks.

Page 10 in #13 now OK.

 

3 New additions

Mini Wheels; No. 2, No. 4, No. 5.

That brings it up to date with what is at hand, but there are more in the pipeline to come.

 

Would be nice to fill in the Mini Wheels gaps, if anyone can help out.

All good, my scanner is better than thought and the document feed seems to work well. I sent of Mini Wheels No 13 ( Mar 77) to Slotbaker and he can convert to the correct format. I'll get the rest away over the next few weeks.

 

Big thanks to Steve ( Slotbaker) for putting this together and collating all the information.. It will be a big job so I hope you've got plenty of spare time

 

Kim ,many thanks for scanning your Mini Wheels . Just one more favour , do you have issue 14 and if so could you scan page 11 please ? The one we currently have has a wing shaped hole in it ! Thanks Peter D
