 Hi Marcury,

you would be very welcome to join us in this experiment. Also any of your Rallye-Raid contacts.

It is a very new idea to have a Proxy for these Raid slot cars, so I am not sure good this would be, but we have some experience in Proxy racing for other slot car types like rally cars. You may notice that the  other new event I have been involved with is based on a "Simulated Slot car Road Race" from South to North coast "Brighton to John O'Groats" This is due to start in April.

But the basic idea for the "Extreme Slotting" would be along the same basic idea, which is that the cars from entrants are sent from one host to another who will test the cars for the shortest time around his or hers Raid car track. Eventually there would be a winning car over the 5 Raid tracks run on. In the UK this will be mostly based on SCX tracks, I think one host has a Ninco Raid track the other 4 hosts are based on SCX. NInco is very difficult to get in England. I managed to buy 2 Ninco pieces last week and I have an adaptor to work with my mostly SCX Raid track. I would like to end up with a mixed track of SCX  & Ninco eventually. If over time this idea of a Proxy Raid competition becomes interesting to more entrants, might even think to make a hard home made track, but that is perhaps in the future.

We are occupied at the moment with making the Proxy "Road Race" a success, but once we have completed this by the end of June, we can start to plan something for this new idea, probably to run in the mid to late autumn.
