Interesting David could it be not enough rounding of the outer tyre or a weather thing or both.

 

tyres seem round and is smooth other than that little bit of bounce

not 100% sure on cause as it can be several things but will get a better idea tonight

Looking forward to seeing how far your ahead of us on your home track Rossko chuckle, quite pleased with my car only being 5 laps behind the winner, our middle group looks interesting only a lap and a bit between 6th and 13th now that looks like good racing.

Congrats to our undisputed leader. Jimmy good job on the podium finish. Overall some really close racing. It must be a blast to to see these older model cars in action. What a great weekend of racing for the people of Oceania with wins in F1’ Indy and ATCC!

Aloha

A big thankyou to Dave & his team of helpers for a very unexpected podium,a very close race with only a lap & a bit separating 3rd to 10th.

After thousands of laps at the Aus MCN last weekend I was lucky enough to pick up a few podium's but I must say the Wolvo is giving me some very satisfying results & I don't even have to plug in the hand control. B)

After 30 odd years in slot cars I'm really glad I discovered Proxy racing to keep me interested & look forward to every race no matter what the result. :D

Cheers Jimmy :D

Thanks DC and your team. Hope you enjoyed the cars. Congrads to the podium place-getters. Pleased with 4th for my little Sierra. Gas4IT will be hard to catch from here. Looking forward to the Aust tracks with the different surfaces compared to NZ.

Thanks to all entrants I tried to do my best. I did deslot(crash) some of the cars but no damaged during the driving.

 

Main thing was I enjoyed the drive, each car had some character of its own...there was no car I didnt like, just some(not necessarily the fastest) that I liked more.

That's a great summary Munter. I pushed to have a touring car class in our club so to get to drive 20 odd different makes and set ups, in this proxy round, was a real treat.

 

Here's a few pics, mainly of some of the cars that stopped near me.
