Fairways Racing Complex Forum

Hi Guys,

For those of you who didn't stay back after our last event, I just thought I'd let you know about my latest slot car acquisition (I showed it at FRC after we put up the track):



Its from Pioneer and is actually Scalextric Digital-plug ready. It comes with their "Typhoon" 18,000 RPM motor and brass rear bearings:



They currently have a range of both notchback and fastback models:



Pioneer have some other cars coming out in this category including some '67 Camaros, '70 Barracudas and '71 Javelins, Maybe we can can create a stock "Pony Car" class for these, the Scaley Mustangs and Camaros, as well as the Ninco versions. AutoArt also have some, as does Carrera and Monogram.

Some regulation thoughts:

• Full interiors.
• Standard magnets.
• Standard motors.
• Minimum ground clearance.
• After-market tyres allowed.

Let's have some feedback here, positive and negative. (Suggestions for regulating them too.)

Gordon,

The price ($55US) isn't bad at all @ Electric Dreams. I see that its also DPR and the chassis looks very user friendly. There is a Twin Pack offer available with these (No.22 Blue & No.21 Red) pioneer cars for $77US ~ which is my kind of thing. Who knows what could play off if some of these type cars should come into the country...

How come you didn't obtain (or not interested in) the new Scalextric C3065 1970 No.33 Camaro model? Its a great looking killer of a slot car with your racing number on it.

Did you check the Ninco 50576 Mosler... I think you will love that one too

Good ones Luke

Love the "Gordon" livery!

Of course I've always been a Ford man.

What do you think of the class and regs?

Gordon

Sounds Great to me Gordon!

I'm good 2 go with it...

Some dialogue with the rest of guys and a pioneer or two on the circuit should do the job

I book the No.17 yellow & black pioneer
