I am starting the process of sending the cars home today, for the entrants in the UK this will be done using the Royal Mail Tracked 48 hour service, this is cheaper than the post office small parcel service and the cars are fully insured for free. I have used it a few times recently and it appears to work quite well. The recipients should get an email advising them of the delivery's.
There is a short delay on getting the winners and runners up medals, but hopefully those entrants will have their cars dispatched also by the end of the week.
Entrants from overseas will have their cars dispatched the usual way through the local Post Office.
All the vouchers and prizes for the Events, Car Construction, Best Team and "Spirit of the Proxy" awards have been distributed.
Tomorrow the winners & runners up medals will arrive.
And the remaining cars can be dispatched by the end of the week.

George Turner's latest masterpiece.
Many thanks to George for his sponsorship of the Proxy.

I asked for the kit, so don't know if fully built and painted would have been offered but I think that would have been a bit too far.
George is a top man.
Wow that’s great ? did he give you the painted model, or just the kit ?

I think an unpainted kit is really great, I just saw your photo of the finished car and raised an eyebrow, but I was just joking
Finally all the remaining cars with medals got posted back yesterday.
I am left with this wheel insert below, I thought I checked all the cars going out had wheel inserts but somehow this one is not accounted for ??
it is a 12mm diameter moulded insert which looks like it comes off a RTR car or perhaps a painted white kit body.
So please check your cars as you receive them

I'd put good money on that being from Brumos' Ferrari

I did check the Ferrari out before I sent it out, but they all looked in place.
