Thanks for the comment on my procar, I'm gathering a shopping list of mods to make to it. It's a work in progress!

I am still on holiday until next weekend, so I will need to check the results out on my database when I get back, but it looks like we have clear winners for The Category 1 ( Ninco cars) & category 4 (Trucks)

And a decider choice to be made for the Category 2 (SCX) and 3 (Procars)

 Good evening

I am back from my vacation abroad and just checked through the results.

The FINAL SCOREBOARD has been updated.

   

As you can see the results as expected were very close.

Category 1 (Ninco) Winner was Oxo Cube / BMW X5
Category 2 (SCX) Winner was PaulC / VW Tourareg (based on higher number of 2nd places overall)
Category 3 (Procar) Winner was James A / Mitsubishi Lancer (based on higher number of 1st places in the series overall)
Category 4 (Trucks) Winner was BAracing / Mann Truck)

In conclusion
I enjoyed organising the proxy once again, I hope that perhaps some additional interest in this type of proxy has been re-gained in regard to running the proxy from within  a couple of the Clubs I visited. And perhaps we can repeat this again sometime in the future should there be the desire to do so.

I especially liked the Scratchbuild contributions we had, and feel its a pity that these did not feature as a seperate Category, perhaps they could do in a future Raid proxy.

Many thanks to the Hosts/Clubs and individuals who provided the tracks, and to the entrants who managed to dust off these rarely used Slot cars, to provide the competetive entertainment.
