On the back of this proxy and the flimsy wings, yesterday I decided to finally fix the wing on my SlotIt Gr.C Jag.

A more solid centre mount and two clear plastic attachments, one at each end of the underside of the wing glued to the bodyshell.

The wing on that car has been flimsy for far too long, ShoeGoo'd on, rubber mat strips glued on...neither are permanent enough and the rubber perished.

As you say they look wrong without a wing, a bit like putting on your best suit for a wedding but not wearing any trousers.

I have attended many National slot car competitions, and basically they have always allowed cars to be entered without fine detail like wing mirrors, ariels etc, but not without rear wings or other basic body parts, which has to be fixed if they come off.....and they always do in close competition.

The best option is to offer different events in a proxy, so entrants can choose if they want to enter cars with or without wings from the start. Normally I would have done this.
