Good evening, 

A nice big box of Slot Cars arrived safely today,  ready for the next 2 rounds of the Summer Grand Prix Proxy. 

First up, a big thumbs up to organiser Grahan for a seriously impressive transportation system inside the box. Very clever, and clearly well thought out. 

All the cars were unpacked,  and given a 10 lap run on my Shed End Circuit.  No problems or issues at all, so they had all travelled safely. 

The Shed End Circuit is Scalextric Sport Track,  repainted with ultra smooth masonry paint to improve the quality of grip. 
It uses a DS timing system,  with DS controllers,  and thus can be driven either clockwise or anti - clockwise.  Power is supplied via a Power Fusion variable transformer.   I have decided to run the event anti - clockwise,  as this is a better test of a cars handling ability.  As you can see from the photos the track is multi level and pretty technical,  so a good test handling and driveability.
