lenny broke Posted March 2, 2021 Author Report Share Posted March 2, 2021 Just a quick reminder that cars must be here at Spitfire Towers by the 22nd of March, so you've got a shade under 3 weeks.

lenny broke Posted March 7, 2021 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2021 (edited) Hi All, With uncertain delivery times from the postal service and some entrants not confident of getting their entry completed in time. I have decided to extend the car arrival cut off date to Friday April 9 to ensure that we have a full field of cars starting the series.

rosco01 Posted March 7, 2021 Report Share Posted March 7, 2021 Thanks Alan, I'll hold back another week from sending mine from Melbourne then.... give me a chance to perhaps get it on a track somewhere and find out if it's going to disgrace itself... anyone in the outer Eastern Subs of Melbourne who has a track?.. other than a Scalextric plastic one? frats, Rosco Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

charlesx Posted March 17, 2021 Report Share Posted March 17, 2021 Have to agree with you Kevan. A great mode of transport for our precious cars. Have been always been very impressed with condition of cars on return after each proxy over the years. Hope my two cars arrive soon as they will looking forward to cozying up in these plush quarters between racers. Bruce and Denny will no doubt enjoy too.

lenny broke Posted March 22, 2021 Author Report Share Posted March 22, 2021 Rosco's Cooper arrived today after spending the weekend in the seaside village of Semaphore.

charlesx Posted March 23, 2021 Report Share Posted March 23, 2021 Beautiful looking model Roscoe. A real credit to your skills. Mine are a bit more basic I am afraid. Often start with the best of intentions but regularly fall short. Hopefully mine are now very close. Just as well Lenny extended the deadline for arrival as I thought they would have been well there by now. Appears that about half the field is still coming.

rosco01 Posted March 23, 2021 Report Share Posted March 23, 2021 Thanks Chas....put a bit of work into it, but not as much as my previous entry a couple of years back. This one does not have the same top end speed that #1 did... not sure what it is..... same motor, wheels, gears etc. etc... might just be a motor which needs a bit of running before it comes on song... However, it was ticking over nicely without any binding at just 1.1v.... #1 was around that on completion.. we'll see.... main thing, those who are privileged to enjoy running the entire field during events enjoy them..... and that none are subjected to needing any repairs during the series... Yes, there must be a bit of the field still in transit - every confidence they'll make the scrutineer's paddock well before start of proceedings... frats, Rosco Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
