Stage Three: Johnny's Workshop

Winner: Oliver Walker, SRC Porsche 914/6 GT

   

Jean created this 3D printed track for his Johnny's Workshop stand at the Havant swap meet a couple of years ago. Now surplus to requirements, he very kindly donated the layout - complete with timer - to the club as a slot rally stage. The 3D printed surface is unique, giving a different level of grip to any sectional or routed track. Racers at Saturday's Slot Rally GB event experienced the debut of this stage, but we reversed the direction for the club night...

   

Again, there was a good mix of cars doing well on this surface, with both Jeremy's and John's Scalextric Pumas in the top 20 and Scott's Lancia Delta S4 leading the SCX cars in twelfth. Our only club car runner tonight, Lee a great job putting the Scalextric Mégane in 41st, ahead of plenty of more experienced rivals driving their own cars...

   

At the top, the Walker's SRC Porsche was quickest - Oliver beating Ryan by exactly one tenth of a second and two seconds ahead of Andy's Ninco Porsche in third...

   

That left Oliver leading the rally with one stage to go. Andy was 2.65 seconds adrift and Ryan just nine thousandths of a second behind in third!
