Pit Lane Review
after only 3 stages, we have seen already that there are some faster cars appearing, but in general the field looks still very tight at the top.

I have taken notice of the "braid curling issue" which AdeC reported due to the cars being packed in foam pockets. This is something I had not anticipated and on reflection I probably should have fitted a foam board mounting insert with a slot cut into it, and placed into each pocket. I am consulting with the next hosts to see if a make do solution can be found, as the cars still have a very long way to travel so that a little concerning.

It is the first time we run a Proxy stage with a club based Scalextric Sport Track, rather than a home based track, so that was very welcome addition to our general plan to run cars on a varied mixture of track surfaces and hosting situations. I hope the Viking Club will be encouraged to participate again during the series of events I have in mind.

I need to take a break right now, but will come back with some more thoughts shortly.

Good morning, has been really fascinating reading AdeC's posts and further comments...brought to life as I was the "other" driver and experienced first hand all the cars with him. I could honestly participate in a proxy every week, was fascinating, thoroughly enjoyed and I will leave AdeC to formerly answer the question on Viking Club's future participation (positively!!)
