Bought from new and maybe used at a dozen events, this is the combination to use with analogue cars on a track set up with positive wiring.

Unmarked and looks in as-new condition to me. Comes in original box with alternative 2-finger trigger extension piece and 3-pin plug fitted.

Any queries, just pm me

NSR Ford P68 No.92 Martini Racing slot car in excellent condition. Bought and raced in a couple of rounds of a local 'NSR Classics' series, but sat in my pit box for a couple of years since, and now is the time to pass it on.

All as original specification, apart from the rear tyres which I replaced with NSR, non-Evo, Ultragrips. These are glued and trued. I do not have the original box anymore, but it will be packaged up carefully. 

A great looking, and performing, car that deserves to be raced.

Just put up on an auction site, but I would be happy to sell it to the sloteratti on here!

Bought on a whim, this cheap souvenier London Bus sat on the shelf in its box for some time before the penny dropped and I thought of the possibility of motorising it.

Comparison to a US1 chassis showed it was a match made in heaven. The wheelbase was identical, the track almost perfect and the chassis looked as if it might just fit inside the bodyshell.

To cut a long story short - it did. All the mods were to the bus to make space for the chassis, which is a TIGHT friction fit. All of the upper deck, the rear stairs and the drivers cab have been retained. The chassis itself is hidden behind the body sides, JUST stopping short of the windows, which being tinted help to disguise it anyway. 

Although it looked like it might be unstable it runs just fine. The weight of the diecast body slows the top speed and also helps traction and road holding.

Bought this back in March. A Faller HO Kart Racing set. Always fancied one but prices are REALLY silly. 

This one turned up on the UK FB Marketplace and sat around for weeks at a very fair - but still high - price with no buyers. Made a cheeky offer and 'Voila'. A bit of a steal but it was mine. (It didn't come with the Pepsi can - that was just to show the  scale!)

Not had it running off the set PSU and controllers yet but the Karts do work wired direct from a PSU, or with power supplied direct to the track. 

It came with a Ziplock bag of red and white plastic tyres to finish off the tyre walls with, plus I've had a bit of fun regluing the tyres that came loose in the post. (There were getting on for four, sorry - EIGHT hundred individual 'tyres' with the original set!) 

I've also been able to source more NOS Faller (dummy) street/circuit flood lights. (Those in the photo were just one third of the number required.) There's still the pit building to find but the fun's in the chase.  Bigsmile   

          

The photo on the right shows the diminutive size. That's a Tyco US1 Dump Truck on a piece of HO track towards the back!

I've set up a little end to end rally loop using 5 x policar r1 curves, 2 x short straights and 2 x r4 curves for the loop at each end.

I was thinking about getting inner borders for the r1s but looking at them i suspect each section is only 22.5deg and at £10 for 6 that's ludicrous.

anyway long story short...can anyone conform they're only 22.5deg because the manufacturer and retailer websites don't actually state that?

So it's now official that Rally1 is dropping hybrid technology certainly for 2025 and 2026.  Personally, I think that the teams have been held to ransom by Compact Dynamics charging them €50000 every time they perform a reset.  To me, this is just another reason why "spec." this and that in motorsport is flawed.  Supplier monopolies, whether it be for engines, transmissions, tyres, whatever, isn't good for progress.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again........  Bring back Group A.  Group B lite sorry - Rally1, hasn't been the success FIA wanted it to be in terms of getting more manufacturers on-board, in fact there's a possibility that very soon they will be down to one-and-a-half (Toyota and M-Sport/Ford).  Rally1 cars just aren't relatable - spec. spaceframe chassis with lookalike bodywork, 4-pot engines rather than production 3-pot.

Another thing......  Has anyone here got their head around FIA's latest points system?  I certainly haven't.

At least Thierry Neuville has finally won the championship (more by luck than judgment......).  He was in danger of becoming another Mikko Hirvonen - regularly a close(ish) runner-up, but never quite "the man".

Discuss...........
