I received RS Slot Racing cars last week. A first time entry to one of my proxy events, so a warm welcome to Colin.

          

Classic Group
Aston Martin DB2 (Class A)
Colin as provided some details of the car which raced in the TF in 1950.
Drivers Lance Maclin & John Gordon.
DNF -accident (hopefully it will finish with our slot car version)

Body Oscar Resin Kit with scratch-build interior, Immense Minitures drivers.
Chassis PCS extended with Plasticard.
Motor Slot it V12 & pinion & Gears
Ortmann Tyres.

Initial impression - Superb looking car ! Makes the full circuit on the Hillclimb track, it is quite heavy which can add to the downward momentum during the decent, and the brakes not to clever, so it will be a gentle run around this part of the track.

Prototypes & GT's
Ferrari 512S (Class E)
Drivers Herbert Muller & Mike Parkes
Made the actual TF race in 1970, finished 6th one lap behind the winning Porsche 908/03 of JoSiffert & Brian Redman.
Body & Chassis Fly with lightweight Interior
Motor Slot it V12 (older version) pinion & gears
Tyres PCS

Initial Impression - yes you can race this one both up and down the hill with confidence. Feels a little light on the front but appeared OK when run at speed.
