January is a very busy time with all the big slot car brands announcing their new products and hogging the limelight. Aside from the hype and the razzmatazz, slot car artisan extraordinaire George Turner has let it be known what new kits he is planning to bring us this year...

1. ERA re-release, with a few slight modifications to bring it up to date
   
2. Ecurie Ecosse 1954 D-Type, Reims
   
3. Ecurie Ecosse 1956 D-Type, Le Mans
   
4. Mazda RX7 1981 BTCC
   
5. MK II Lotus Cortina
   
6. Vauxhall Firenza Droop Snoot
   
7. Ford C100 Truck 1981
   
8. 1907 GP Renault
   
9. 1907 GP Fiat
   
10. Group 44 Triumph Spitfire
    
11. Cobra GT
    
12. Austin Healey 3000 Rally
    
13. Ecurie Ecosse transporter
    
14. Atkinson transporter
    

Maybe not all of these will happen, but it's a great list. And there will probably be other kits that George adds that he hasn't thought of yet.

The first to break cover - and it is only January - is the reworked ERA kit. A very fine model to have back in the catalogue...


       

       

All George Turner's models are supplied as resin kits and include a resin chassis, detailing parts and a decal sheet...

   

I can testify that George offers very good customer service if things go wrong with the building of his kits and is always good for an entertaining natter at swapmeets.
