So far we have 12 entries,up to 20 predicted, but only 4 have disclosed their car.

 

Giorgors Petris Renault Alpine A310 2wd Avant slot

Thanos Niskopoulos Citroen Xsara 4wd SCX Pro

Dimitris Dimas Subaru Impreza WRC MSC

Alexis Gaitanis Subaru Impreza WRC Ninco or Peugeot 307 Ninco or Citroen Xsara 4wd SCX Pro-tonights testing will decide,the Xsara is the fastest but unreliable,the Subaru is slower but very difficult to deslot,i assembled the Pug only last night,had a broken chassis and it arrived just yesterday.Of course i dodnt stand a chance against the MSC and Avant slot monsters

Great looking track .Should test a lot of the Proxy cars . Those hand cut tyres, are they cut into shop bought tyres or are the something you guys make up. By the way ,not sure if you were aware of it ,but your Skoda had the track record when we finished the proxy here. Unfortunatly those Rs200 MSC Fords were at a slotkhana we were running here and at Gazza's last night . Your time was 20.463 , Which I thought was going to be hard to beat. It lasted all of one week. One of those bloody MSC Fords came and destroyed that with a 19.796 (FPVGTP who is in the Proxy). They are a good car if you have all the good bits on it.

Not wrong about that .I reminded Mario that your time was from a stock standard car,very little changes and his was virtually rebuilt from ground up for the cost of A380 jet plane :lol:
