Thanks

Well she's not pretty but here's my first bash at setting up a car for this proxy
Amato 3d chassis
Sideways gt3 pod
Scaleauto 25k s can
Nsr air wheels and ultra grips
Scaleauto guide
Hopefully get some track time before she needs to be posted off but it's possible it won't see a track before heading over the pond.

Nice. The Corvette’s tend to do well over there so fingers crossed for you.
Here’s my entry:
It’s a Scaleauto Porsche 991.2 RSR with a Slot It pod, NSR Shark 25k and NSR Ultras. Taking it to my local club track for a bit of weight tuning this week (although it’s a Scalextric Sport track so most of it will just be guesswork). Having seen the fleet of Ford GTE’s that have been entered this year, my confidence is pretty low with getting this to qualify, but it’ll be fun trying!

Thanks, yeah they tend to be the scaleauto ones but I was encouraged by a wide variety of cars in the top 10 last year. Even a couple of Porsches so all is not lost
That sounds like a good solid build, and I hear the 991.2 has a firm flat chassis, best of luck.
I've not been following the builds but was expecting sideways gte and lambo to feature heavily this year. My ambition is just to qualify this year.

So Woodcote, when are we going to see what you’re concocting? Or will we have to wait for the qualifying rounds…

AdeC pull the interior, you will want a lexan interior in your car. If your glass is not in 4 individual pieces you will want to cut them so they are and remount. This will release 2-5 grams from up high in the Porsche as it is one of the taller cars in the proxy. Make sure your front tires ride lightly on your set up block, and your fronts ride as wide and out to the fender as it is also a narrow car for this proxy. This all said your car will probably out run my Porsche without the suggestions. I also test on a sport track.

The interior lasted about 20 seconds after I took that picture

. It was pulled straight afterwards and replaced with a universal lexan alternative saving about 6-7 grams! The glass is still stock but now pendle finally have the lexan alternative in stock I'm tempted to replace that too, although I'll see what savings can be made by trimming first
