I have been talked into attending this event - had to talked into it as we have a multitude of overseas visitors in late august and early September (and it is the weekend of the Brussels beer festival   ).

It is 2 races with Scalextric cars - 1 Class using the clamshell cars and one with powersledge. Then 2 classes - open 1/32nd cars - vintage prior to 72.

I had to trawl through my boxes in the garage to get out the Scaley cars and then to test which to use. Below are my choices based on performance

   

I was pleasantly surprised to find that the silver hong kong Johnson motors are a good bit quicker than the blue english versions, to the (then) plain red Ferrari and the Red electra are the 2 I will choose from.
I decided that I would paint the plain read Ferrari and this is the outcome :

           

My open class GT class choices are :

       

The no 26 GTO performs really well but the Cobra took a top 6 place in Bordo - so will choose once I am testing on the track


For the sports class I will probably use the 612, but for fun might use the Chappie as the wing works in racing (flops up and down at the correct moments)



           


Will take a lot of pics at the race and attempt some videos....

Will take some 1/24ths as I believe there will be some demonstration runs


       


Monogram 275 with a lot of body improvements and a Carrera Dino.
