Wobble Posted March 21, 2020 Author Report Share Posted March 21, 2020 (edited) Yep same colour, maybe the flash didn't light it up so much. Now that you mention it I might have a look at the photos and see if I can't add some light. Actually, comparing the photo with the car they are 2 different blues anyway. The model looks to be a greener blue but about the same exposure. Edited March 21, 2020 by Wobble Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArroldN Posted April 3, 2020 Report Share Posted April 3, 2020 (edited) Um first time I've heard of the tissue and superglue to make an interior. Learn something new everyday. I have been using a playing card. I'm sure this is super light. Edited April 3, 2020 by ArroldN Quote MOPAR or NOCAR YES IT'S A HEMI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have been using a playing card. I'm sure this is super light. The Mk 2 model has taken its place now as I needed one for a Pontiac as well so used this for a pattern. The Mk3 is following closely.

Kevan Posted April 6, 2020 Report Share Posted April 6, 2020 I like to remove the original interior, photograph it from above as a plan view then print an A4 sheet full of them the same size as the originals. Stick the driver back in and it's as lightweight as you're going to get but with all the detail of the original. Quote Life is like a box of Slot cars...

Wobble Posted April 7, 2020 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2020 Although my interiors don't look too bad in the car as they aren't the easiest to see, I decided to remove the toilet paper superglue pieces and fit styrene sheet instead. The beauty of these plastic plates is that I just had to reheat them and they shrunk back to flat so that they can be used again and so here's the much tidier Mk3 version.

Wobble Posted April 12, 2020 Author Report Share Posted April 12, 2020 The thought occurs to me that an elevated image might be in order. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wobble Posted October 22, 2021 Author Report Share Posted October 22, 2021 Seeing the post Gazza added with the Bartlett Camaro got me thinking about something to do with Pioneer motors that I'd like to ask about. It's some time since this thread was current but I've been having the odd run with this car and recently dropped a Pioneer motor into it and now it can lap the track where I race as quickly as any of my Slot.it Group C cars and LMP's and it's quite a long track. My quickest cars usually take about 8.3 - 8.5 secs per lap. I remember reading somewhere about Pioneer's 18k motor specs and seem to recall that the output of one version was getting up there towards Slot.it's orange endbell of the time. There used to be a 'small p' version and a 'big P' version among others and it would be good to check it out if anyone can recall reading this post as well and knows where it is.

Oldskool62 Posted October 22, 2021 Report Share Posted October 22, 2021 @WobbleI have a couple of Pioneer typhoon motors that I am told work well in Carrara's. I have a couple of Chevy Monza's that I want to make into (Bob Jane Brock driven) and (Moffat Federation) and want to use the motors for them.
