[Graham]

As the Rally Slotting Proxy was my first entry into Grahams series of proxies it was also a learning curve as regards Event/Class/Team points. 

For this Touring Proxy Andy and myself purposely didn’t clash in either Event or Class and teamed up helping each other built the two cars. 

I like the fact you can have more than one bite at the cherry and race on three different fronts.

The other thing to take into consideration is the opposition, Event 1 only has 6 cars (only 5 before Graham changed his cars) so you'd have a better chance of doing well in that event whereas Event 3 has 15 cars and littered with competition grade cars like SlotIt so you'd need to be good at car setup to do well in that event.

As far as class is concerned, Class A was wide open to a careful choice of car, Scaley sidewinder looks like the hot ticket here and only 8 cars whereas Class B is chocka with 22 cars, it's going to be very hard to do well in that class.

So next time round take other things into consideration before choosing your car, personally I'm warming to the idea of a Class A jobbie and expecting the older era event to be less populated again...but those two things don't always happen together i.e. Event 1 and Class A

It has always been my intention to try and attract an equal number of entrants for each Event and for each Class. But probably in general entrants find the Classic Event or the Class A type cars more risky, whereas the other Events or Classes are more evenly balanced cars…at least that’s my theory.

It will be interesting if we go ahead next year with a proxy based on different car types but the same era, then we might see a more even distribution across the Events as the risk level is perhaps similar for all 4 choices or class levels….psychology never my strong point
