  4. Hi All, Due to some personal issues I may have to delay racing for a week or two, so sorry for this. I am still working towards the nominated weekend, but as a result of this up in the air'ism and for those who have not sent their entries yet, I will not be applying a penalty if entry is later than the cutoff date.

  14. Thanks to all that have responded, I will give till the end of the weekend for further confirmations otherwise I will have to remove from the entry list. Field will be confirmed on Monday 9th June 2025. This will then be distributed to each host. So far there are 6x 1:43 cars and 8x 1:32, nice mix as well.
  15. Just a reminder to those who haven't paid, entry fees are due. Please be nice and pay as soon as you can as it helps with confirmation of numbers for organising the rounds. If you have changed your mind and do not want to enter please let me know either here or PM if you prefer, again so that we can organise the rounds.
  16. Hi Vince,yes it was a shock that she passed away so quickly.She only left hospital the previous weekend and was at the centre Thursday night so it was a shock when I got home from work on Friday to see on Facebook that she had passed away.I will pass on your condolences to Paul when the centre reopens next week.
  17. Hi Tony It’s a bit of a shock to hear of Hayley’s passing, I remember her with Paul when racing NASCAR’s at Penrith years ago. Condolences to Paul on losing Hayley it is sad to hear of someone so young passing. Regards Vince

  20. Hi Chris. Strictly speaking you are correct but this history is of interest to all old slotties so is fine where it is. Regards Charles Le Breton (Slottie since 1960)
  21. With the sudden passing on Friday of the Matriarch of Outlaw Slot Cars,Hayley Turns,today’s Revo GT race was held in her honour.There were six entrants with TQ going to Dave with 8.4572 seconds from Greg,8.6321,Tony 8.7809,Leah 9.1053,Maverick 9.1075 and Tommy 9.4896. The race was held over six of the eight lanes with byes on red and black to allow for marshals.Each heat was run over 4 minutes.The first heat was a cracker with the lead changing numerous times between Dave,Greg and Tony.Dave soon eased out to a two lap lead for most of the race with Greg and Tony in hot pursuit and keeping him honest.In the meantime Leah,Maverick and Tommy were having a close battle too for 5he best of the rest.The race really got exciting in the last heat with Dave and Tony on the same lap half a lap apart,Greg had a shocker of a heat and dropped a number of laps.Dave crashed a couple of times in the last 30 seconds allowing Tony to catch-up but was able to hold on to win by a scant 0.285 seconds with 160 laps each from Greg in third with 155.Leah was best of the rest with 147 from Maverick 134 and Tommy 129.
  22. Not that it really matters, but, should this not be in the Vintage 1/24 section ?? Cheers Chris Walker
  23. For some reason, that person did not print or use all the parts, specifically the plunger adapter. If the prints are of acceptable quality, the rubber band should not be necessary, but can certainly help in those cases when the print is not accurate and does not properly confine the controller. I'd not seen that photo before, so would be curious where you found it. I've since updated the design with screw holes on the other side so that the OEM screws can be used to secure the controller to the print more firmly for those users who feel such things as a rubber band is needed on their print. The important thing is that it works and is a very affordable, practically free for those who already own a printer, way to get pistol grip wireless controllers for Carrera Digital. I've confirmed that it also fits perfectly into the original Carrera Wireless (infrared) controllers. I've also added a new version for Carrera GO!!! controllers that requires the OEM screws to secure the controller, because it does not have the side panel design.
  24. Interesting article in the mid 60,s i was part of Team Russkit in the uk in a part time capacity driving in 6, 12 and 24 hour races , Barrie Wade ran the slot cars over here with equipment supplied from the states ,can remember parcels arriving with brand new parts including controllers and the 21 and i think 23 motors , Barrie and Mike Gamblin were the main racers i filled in when needed , Russkit made some nice looking cars but slot car racing was in decline here so it was not a long career smile.
