The cars that you will race on the day will be the cars we use on our monthly "Club Car" night. These are a 1/24 scale steel chassis which were designed and made by
Ian Barker, and we race these on the first Thursday of every month (your first night is free if you want to pay us a visit and get some extra practice!). Its always a good evenings close racing, and with no car prep to worry about there is always more time for a chat or gossip. Lap times are normally around the 5.5 to 6 second mark which is very competitive, and compares very well with a very good Genesis 1/32 car.
Motors are Pro Slot Euros with Puppy Dog arms, and drivers will only be allowed to adjust braids as the maintenance is taken care of during racing by our resident expert mechanic Mike Read. We will have six of these cars available and they will be swapped around during the day to ensure that one car has no real advantage. All 6 cars will be fully race prepped and ready to go on the day.
Bodies for the BOAC 500 are now confirmed as Autocoast Ti22 and will be supplied by
Trevor Crout at
CAT and painted and lettered by
Eddie McDonald (Sprays by Mac). We are of course very grateful for the help and assistance these two have given us for this event.
