Would the Ferrari 250 GTO, Ferrari 250 GT SWB and Ferrari Lusso also be a part of this list?

Yes I have checked them out and all 3 were racing in 1964.

Are the old Scalextric Mini Coopers allowed?

...wheel arches will have to be sanded back to 50mm of course

 Good Morning

I have revisited the thorny issues regarding chassis choices, and have proposed that.

Classification of two Chassis Types :
Type A - Plastic, Resin & Penelope Pitlane 
Type B - Other metal & B&W types.

I believe that since the Master Build Class is targeted at Resin kit builders, then it is logical to assume they would prefer to use the associated chassis etc, so I have withdrawn the option to use Type B chassis for this class. So only Mod Std Class cars can use Type B Chassis.

And secondly in reality we only have 2 or 3 Type B type chassis builders, so I have proposed to keep these chassis in Events 2 (Sports Prototypes) Event 4 (F1/Indy) only. 

The proposal has been ammended.

I would say yes if the wheel arches are sanded back to 50mm, and that if the wheels remain the same width as the main body. I believe that some 60's Minis did race with slightly modified wheel arches (but not as wide as these Scalex ones of course)

Kevan,
I have amended my comments on your request.
Basically you can sand the Scalextric wheel arches down to be compliant with the body width, but the wheels have to be the same outer width as the main body as I think otherwise this Mini version would be outer scale compared to reality.

This proxy is developing quite nicely

Hi Graham,

The VW Beetle appears to be missing from the small saloon car list?
How about increasing the rear tyre width for the 1.5lt F1 cars to 9mm? This would match the CSCRA width allowance for this class and might encourage entries from cars that have competed in previous F1 proxies under the CSCRA rules.

I was going to suggest the same thing about the F1's yesterday.

Hi Mark,
Just had a look at the Racing Sports Cars website, and there is a couple references for the VW Type 1 (ie Beetle) racing in the SCCA series in the early 60’s, so I am happy with that car if it meets the 50mm body width requirement ?

And I will go with your suggestion for the 1.5litre F1 car tyre width if it encourages new participants.
