Please add a second car i will let you knoa what group . I think group 2 and 3 Thanks

That's great, please complete the Registration Form for each car, once you know what the details are.

I also have a Proslot Porsche, which I believe is the body that Revoslot use on their model. Wider arches and high wing.

I think that's a relatively modern GT2 Porsche not a 60's Porsche.

In fact now it's been mentioned, the Revoslot is a late 90's GT2 not a 60's/70's 934.  If this is a period proxy they shouldn't be included.

It might be a good idea to check what era a car is from before rushing headlong into a car build.

Not seen any of the Revoslot 934's. Only pictures are a side view drawing. The Proslot/Revoslot body, I have, is a GT2. The Scalextric body, certainly looks like the mid 70's 934 photo's, on the internet. As near as you would expect with a Scalextric car of that period.

Well, with both my Scalextric BMW and Scalextric Porsche 934, being disallowed, there's nothing suitable in my box for Group 2.

You have some nice Group 1 entry cars, if your unable to find a Group 2 car, you could enter 2 cars in Group 1 ?

[Graham]

I have started a basic list of confirmed entrants on the leading page.

I will update it once you tell me how many cars you intend to enter (this of course can be revised later) but it gives an idea of the number of cars overall which are being entered and I don't need to know which classes at this stage, as this will become apparent once the registration forms are received.

Could be the return of the Cobra. I'll see how it fits the regs.

And of course you have the red Austin Healey 3000 ?

I have 2 Cobras entered in a "Shelby Tribute proxy" in the US at the moment, so depending on their success rate maybe entering one myself.

NOTIFICATION- Regarding the Revoslot Porsche 934
Obviously I had no previous knowledge of this Revoslot car being released when developing this proxy. And I thought it was a strange choice for Revoslot to choose, as it is not falling into the 60’s Gr2 or the 90’s GT1 or GT2 car category’s ? Perhaps they are starting a new group of cars, and why not of course.

I have looked up the details of the Revoslot 934 cars regarding real time info, and it looks as if all 3 car variations were indeed cars which ran in the late 1970’s at various events. I don’t think that any of the liveries variation offered actually participated in the Targa Florio although they could have done. Most likely only the Brumos livery car would have been in a road race given that the other 2 have track based rear wings.

However regarding proxy entries my thoughts are that since there could be only one Revoslot car in this Group 3, should we allow it into the competition and if so in which class ? A solution would be to allow this car into either Group 3E ( Modified Standard) or Group 3F (Procar) under a concessionary basis.
I can see issues and possible objections to either and maybe just barring the car is the best solution, but I am open to your views on it.

I don't understand why people that come up with new ideas are often held back.

Why not just tell everyone else that they can do the same if they wish? It's an even playing field if everyone else can do it.

I tip my hat to people that try and break away from the same old, same old.

At our club, we class Revos as 'Standard Class' and they race alongside NSR's, SlotIt's etc.

As they don't have adjustable pods and the motor isn't overly powerful...and of course they're also heavy, they don't give NSR's and SlotIt's much competition.

On the Rally stages we often see a Revo Toyota Supra, again they don't have any advantage over plastic chassis 'pro' cars.

On race circuits they don't have any advantages over plastic chassis 'Pro cars' as we've already seen in the current GT Proxy.

So I don't have a problem with them being entered in Group 3 as long as they are standard cars and entered as 'Pro car class' i.e. 3F

...obviously they have to be 1960-1977 cars

 They should be subject to the same rules, as the other cars in their class, why just standard? Then it’s up to the builder to decide if he is going to build a FrankenRevo BMW 2002 on 10mm wide tires under the rules to beat a Ferrari 250 LM or GTO.  I can only think of one knucklehead who would consider building a Brumos RSR Revoslot running in group 3.  Let me…opps….him do it if the car is to scale.
