Race it - and drink it. First, I need to point out that the "Martini" only anecdotally relates to the Italian aperitif maker and predates the racing sponsorship of same. It was coined by my life-long friend Alain Henon when we shared a New York city apartment in 1958 and had a nearly permanently erected original Scalextric "Figure 8" track on the living room floor. It paid honor to our preferred Friday evening libation. More of this history can be found in this (seriously outdated) web site:

Primary interest: 1/32 scale scratchbuilding
Current projects likely to appear here: 4WD Ferguson P99, a brace of 1939 Mercedes GP cars for the Mac Pinches proxy, Lotus 23 - a joint project with Carver (from the SCI forum)

Welcome Al, great to see you on here. I had noticed your continuing problems with SFI, you shouldn't have the same trouble here.
