Re: Gran Prix Cars in the spirit of Nuvolari

It seems we have enough interest in these cars to take this someplace now.

I agree Monte, probably two classes. How many cars fit into the class represented by Scalextric Legends F1 Set? "Goose" has a couple of these cars re-motored and dialed in. It looks to me the two in Rico's photo would qualify?

Re: Gran Prix Cars in the spirit of Nuvolari

I think this should work well but I propose a higher RPM motor for the later cars, say 18K.  These cars were faster in 1:1 and should reamin so in 1/32.  I have cars for both classes so I'm ready to go.  However, I may not be able to make it on Thursday due to soccer practice duty. I will try to work something out, practice is from 6-7. I could just be fashionably late.....

Race cars are neither beautiful nor ugly. They become beautiful when they win.
