RE: GT Sports Cars Slotting - Graham - 2nd-Feb-24

 Good Morning

Updated Entry List

[attachment=33620]

With a couple of entrant cars now arrived, I will start the scrutineering.


We have a great field of cars and it will be difficult to pick winners, but for fun I will offer a £5 voucher to anyone who can correctly predict the winners of each Event, Class and Team combined. Surely the odds of someone predicting that will ensure that it will most likely not be claimed

As I received a couple of serious replies to my challenge, so I will expand upon it a little more .

Predict the winner Competition (open until the 1st March )
Open to anyone (does not need to be a participant), a £5 voucher for PSR can be won, for the nearest prediction of the outcome of the proxy.
This means you need to predict the correct winner of each Event, the winner of each Car Class A,B and C across all 4 Events and the final Team winner.


Should be interesting

With all the Registration forms in I can reveal the technical details of the cars in the proxy.

So it is, sorry about that. I have corrected it

This morning I also corrected the fact that Bangers Racing Ferrari 512BB in Event 1 is a Class C not a Class B car.
Procar bodied models are Class C regardless of whether they are with MP, 3d or B&W chassis.

That's a bonus. At least my cars aren't in competition with each other, in Class B.

RE: GT Sports Cars Slotting - Graham - 11th-Feb-24

Good afternoon,
Scrutineer update

I been busy today checking out the cars I have received.
In general I have all the cars running without incurring any direct penalties.

Rear tyre width on a few were... well a little swollen lets say.
Tyre diameters are really not that practical to measure on an assembled models, and a few to the eye looks more than 1mm difference, so I will keep them as pending a stewards enquiry until the end of the proxy. And if they are in the leading positions I will open them up at the end to see if penalties are applicable.

Everyone's cars have the correct minimum amount of track clearance so far.

The car width has been adhered to apart for one car which with the teams permission was adjusted to meet the rule requirement.

And we had one car accidentally fitted with traction magnet, which has been removed with the permission of the entrant. When the magnet was in it exceeded the motor magnetic force spec quite dramatically  

All interiors and body decorations have been acceptable.

And the guides appear to be as recommended.

I have started measuring rpm on the running cars back wheel using a tachometer, which has been interesting, one car seems to have slightly exceeded the max 23k, I measured 24.5K (although it was declared as 21.5k  which is correct according to the brand tech details) on the registration sheet. My set up may not be perfect in this aspect, although I am working on improving the consistency of this testing.

So in general very pleased so far......
I am not wishing to apply any penalties, so fingers crossed for the rest. The proxy should be about fair competition & fun and not looking for minor discrepancies to disadvantage entrants.
