Vinno Posted September 29, 2021 Author Report Share Posted September 29, 2021 My only complaint is the wheels are too small. The rest of the car is great and I am well and truely looking forward to smashing it into Forests Elbow in the rain and driving my Dick Johnson Sierra past it. https://youtu.be/W9IBSJPadf8 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaynus Posted September 29, 2021 Report Share Posted September 29, 2021 Not a shining example of sportsmanship from the crowd, but not unexpected I suppose, mob rule and all that Probably similar faces at the anti lockdown protests... Back on topic, I've had my name down for this one for months, not too concerned how it performs, very impressed Slot.it chose a bit of Australian history for their range! I'm sure it will sell like hot cakes! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey Mate, unless it's pure licensing(not sure how that works now you aren't allowed to advertise), It was just one of those things over a coffee this morning where I went, I remember that. It used to be so normal and now it's so khaki. And I do miss those types of livery(but I wish I game them away sooner - would own lots more slot cars), I guess as things get more regulated soon we wont see Jack Daniels, Jimmy Beam or even Tooheys. But I'll take this one as a win for now. Regards Mark Edited October 1, 2021 by MarkC66 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its the level of tuning a newbie rug racer would use. I shuddered.

munter Posted October 3, 2021 Report Share Posted October 3, 2021 Actually I admired his nonchalant brushing of the tire debris onto the track. A true master stroke. l confess to using the sandpaper sheet on the track method myself except I positioned the car in reverse so it pulls back against the paper. Who needs a fancy pancy tire lathe? 2 Quote John Warren Slotcars are my preferred reality Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For a quick rough up of standard tyres I confess to using sandpaper on the track but for a real true up I would throw it on the tyre truer. And I agree about the brushing of the tyre dust onto the track. Really? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SlotsNZ Posted October 5, 2021 Report Share Posted October 5, 2021 All stock being shipped from Europe, will have the fix applied before dispatch. Haven't heard anything about Oz, but I presume Jim is getting ex Italy, so you should be okay. NZ stock is coming from Italy, so they will have been sorted.
