Does 'resin body' include resin printed or resin cast only?

Resin cast only for Class A.
3D printed are probably lighter (although I have never had one) so they fit into Class B cars.

 Good afternoon,

A request has been raised to permit the new SRC BMW 2800 CS into the "Touring cars Slotting" Proxy. 
Technically it does not appear to have been run in the actual British Touring Car Championship, but was a popular competitor in the European Touring Car Championship racing along with the Ford Capris and is a 4 seater Saloon.

So I have added it to the Event 2 "Grand Touring" class list of cars by invitation.

I think also it will be fun to see how the BMW 2800 CS does run in comparison with the inevitable SRC Ford Capri entries as a Class C car.

Hi Graham, is it possible for me to have 2 entries (or is it too late now). At the time we communicated I didn’t realise that my entry fee allowed for 2 entries. They will of course be 2 scatchbuild brass and piano wire slot cars probably a Nissan GTR and an Opel Calibra. Thank you.

Manxandy.

Yes you can enter 2 cars, but they must be for 2 different events, if your using B&W chassis with a plastic moulded body, then you are restricted to Events permitting C Class cars ( 1,2 or 3)

I just made a couple of minor revisions to the Touring Cars Slotting rules v6, so please check out them out on the leading post of the thread.
(a) allowing NC-9 as a permitted motor for Class A cars.
(b) Relating penalties to points instead of times, as this series will be run championship style.
