New Track

Hi All

Well the Slot car adventure is well under way and the club we have set up in southampton is now over subcribed,

Here is the new portable track we are hoping to bring to some events to try and get the young ones interested in motorsport and look forward to any comments and seeing you all again soon.

Great job Tone, you sure have worked hard on it!

Can't wait to have a go on that one, maybe Jerry can hire it for a week to get some practice in

We will be at Shelsley on 20th 21st with the Slot Car Track, hopefully you will all come and have a go and support us, maybe we can run a competition on the Saturday after the event for competitors - marshalls etc , Should be Fun.

Great looking track Tony, shame im not at Shelsley. The only problem with slot car racing is it leads to Radio Control caer racing which is more expensive then the real thing!!!

Cheers

Rich

Hi Rich hope you havent just got up out of the seat with more paper in you hand

Slot racing has come along way in recent years we have some cars that only cost £20 to build and can reach speeds of nearly 50 mph in a fraction of a second, It's electric!

Forgot to mention hopefully some of the Drivers from the BSCRA will be poping in to give a little display for us, also we have our own Stig who you can take on and try to beat! oh and he,s only 12 yrs old .

Some say, he is the best new comer for a number of years. Some say, he races his slot car whilst doing his paper round.
He drinks a lot of petrol.
He was born in space.
He never blinks.
He roams around the woods at night foraging for wolves.
He sleeps upside down like a bat.
His sweat can be used to clean precious metals.
His skin has the texture of dolphins.
His earwax tastes like Turkish Delight.
He is confused by stairs.
He naturally faces magnetic north.
He is illegal in 17 U.S. states.
His heart ticks like a watch.
All we know is, he is called the Stig!
