Just for general info:

Our small sports/saloons class is for narrow cars as I've mentioned before and currently you need to build something special to be competitive...or race a Revo Gr.2. and we classify all Revos as 'Standard Class' but they must use the original motor, chassis, body/interior.


If these MRSlotcar releases are 54mm or less across the tyre walls I'm expecting them to give the Revo Gr2's a real hard time when they eventually show up on our track (one of our club members is a Ferrari nut and will WANT ONE!).

If they are 54mm ? I have a suspicion they might be wider, in which case putting them into the Group 2 category might be quite reasonable

I’m just attempting to get 3 cars in the proxy in different classes.  It will be fun and we will see how it shakes out.  Thanks for the answers.

I know we have a SRP 25k & a Slimline Scaleauto motor available in the UK, I am curious as whether there is any alternative 25k slimline motors in the USA, if so I could add them to the list ?

[Kevan]

Policar 25k slimline is a great motor.

Scalextric 25k slimline is a great runner, I think that's the green one.

Yes I was going to include the Policar one, but I was thinking of our friends across the pond who have other aftermarket motors available.

But the motors have to be currently available ones, so no obscure old Scalextric types or others from the distant past

Policar motor is showing in stock at Professor Motor and Slot Car Corner.

ANNOUNCEMENT
Eligible motor list additions.
I have agreed to raise the rpm  threshold for  Slimline motors only.
They must be currently available ones (no obsolete older types)

The Slimline motors below will be added:
Scaleauto 25k rpm Tech 1
Policar 24.5k rpm
SRP 25k rpm 

I will close the additional motor list on the 19th April, please let me know if there are any other Slimline 25k rpm motors which could be considered ?

The C1 body is 56.65mm wide at the doors (the widest part). The rear track width is about 51mm.

The Ferrari body looks a few mm smaller.

Ernie has prototypes on display at Mr Slotcar.

Let him know I need one of those fully sponsored Ferraris in this proxy to help with “sales”

[KensRedZed]

I'll get right on that for you, Brumos.
