Metrorama - People's Choice


Capri-corn7

Recommended Posts

Back in July a movement started in a tin shed on the outskirts of Hastings...

 

One man's vision coupled with some like minded clubmates has resulted in 22 pages of good natured 'questionable' banter and 13 miracles of slot engineering.

 

The brief : Turn one of the worst cars Scalextric ever produced into a capable challenger to compete in a drive your own car series on our local Hawkes Bay tracks.

The car in question is the dreaded '80s Metro SuperTurd

Thanks to the generosity of Slotmadmac for most of the donor cars & Munter for his mad vac form skills we will soon be kicking off the most exciting rolling race series of our lives...

 

So this post is to honor these builders, this small group of Men who have taken on this Everest of a challenge, The America's cup of slots... The METRORAMA.

This post is to solicit your vote for the car and build that most appeals to you. It may not be the shiniest, it may not be the lowest - It may not even be the fastest...looking... BUT it will be YOUR chocie....

 

The 13 cars are numbered in the next post. Please reply just once, with the number of your choosing and i will tally up the votes. Voting will close at the end of the Metrorama challenge. The winning car's builder will receive the gloat and the glory plus this amazing Metro 6R4 tee shirt. (one size fits most)...

Ross votes for The Jager bomb (we all know this before he even turns up)

 

It's close, I like bright colours, but somehow the simplicity of Dave's black and silver speaks ssssssssssstyle.

I vote for number 2 the crockpot full of turd

For me I felt that the cars with "light" coloured lights were the better look.

 

My vote goes to #9 - Mk2 Petroturd...

A very close second was #2 - Crokofturd.
