Was at the UK Slot Car Festival today and only bought a few cars.
The first purchases were these Scalextric Porsche 962 Gp C cars.
From A #27.

Janspeed #2.

Texaco #01.

Whilst collecting a Gordini F1 body kit from Pendle's stand I saw this MRRC Ford GT MkIV which completes my collection of MkIVs from Le Mans 1967.

I found this vintage brass chassis Ferrari 330 P4 in a box of £10 cars.

As I was leaving the Festival just before it closed, having taken part in the Policar GP I took the long way out and just happended to spot this MRRC Shelby Cobra Hardtop on the Pendle's stand. This is a car I should have received just before Christmas but the carrier lost it.


My first purchase of the day wasn't a car but this tyre truer.

Gave the still just clipped together Porsche 910 a test run and all seems to be ok.

Built up the chassis for the Porsche 910 using the MRRC inline chassis.

Received one of last years pre-orders from Pendle's today the Steve McQueen 390GT Mustang.

Started to build a Porsche 910 body using the MRRC body kit I bought last year. I think as I have one to hand I will be using a MRRC chassis under this car.



Yesterday I printed the latest version of the 3D chassis for the SCX COT Nascar bodies from Johnny's Workshop and to day I transfered all the running gear from the earlier version of the chassis. This chassis is fitted to my Chevrolete Impala SS.

Received my latest Corgi Model Club diecast today a Triumph Herald.

Done some more work on the Super Shells Ferrari 518 and the car is now in a running state, just chassis and body. Not yet fitted with the final size wheels or tyres as it's only at early test stage at the moment.

I've finished building the second chassis for the SRC BMW and both car and second chassis have been tested on my home track and run quite well, the car is very stable. Next up will be to test both on my clubs track.

I've also changed the Policar pod in the Eagle Weslake as when running last week at my club it was very noisy, I've swopped the motors in the pods so I'm still running the same motor.

As I now had this pod spare I have decided to start work on my Super Shells F1 Ferrari 518 as I also have a Pendle's Super Shells 3D printed front end for the pod. So far all I've don't is glue the mounting post in place, just one at the front as the motor pod is supported by the drivers cockpit tray.
