I'm looking forward to seeing the Lister up close.

I suspect the rear wing will be an issue as the rubber struts don’t sit tightly enough in the body.

Built, balanced and ready to race...
Really trying for results this time (again...). An occasional podium would be nice!
I love puttering with gears

Howdy folks! I have been away from proxy racing for just over a decade, but remember it fondly, even hosting a couple of races back in the early teens at our club track. (
Austin Slot Car Club) Recently, a member of our club inspired me to jump back in when she built out a couple of cars for a proxy here in the states. I stumbled across this global challenge with Revoslots and I thought I would throw my hat in the ring. So... from across the pond in the Great State of Texas, USA comes a custom livery Dodge Viper. This is my first custom livery using an airbrush, which I'm sure is evident to the more experienced airbrush painters. (Getting the thinning right to avoid the orange peel on clear coat is tough!)
I built it to the mechanical spec I have run successfully on our club track, a
50+ foot routed
wood course, so if it finds similar conditions it should at least be drivable. [I hope]
Hope the racers find it at least tolerable and possibly fun to run.

I often watch the youtubeage of racing on that fine looking track.
