Stranger things have indeed happened and I'm 100% expecting it will happen again.

I struggled to dial out the oversteer on my 250 GTO...
Good luck drivers!
I love puttering with gears

You'll probably find all those in the Kinrara will suffer oversteer...8mm wide tyres don't give a huge amount of grip, my Corvette does the same, overpowering the cars in that event won't help matters...

Good afternoon
had a busy day with car deliveries this morning, and they all have passed the dimensional checks.
Entry update
So far no penalties which is great

So we are nearly there
I am going to postpone the Qualifying until next weekend as there is a bit of restoration work to be done on a couple of the entries.
The first Round will be run at the Viking Slot Car Club during mid September, with the 2nd at nearby Culverstone Raceway.
