Yeah fellas,

Since Friday 15th May 2020 ... basically top of page one :)

Three (3) weeks has passed with this topic & here’s the latest:

Kenny & myself had a meeting at noon today about his new SSD circuit ... I even got a chance to see what the 8 X 12 table (now) looks like after it was cleared of his Scalextric racing sets ~ 1 Digital & 1 Analog ~ all permanently setup for 2 straight years.

Also very eye catching ... how the original sheets of ply-board were reinforced beneath for a level surface and above a fresh coat (or two) of bright green paint applied to make it one neat finish.

I forecast how picture perfect things will look when he sets back up his fully Scalextric Sport Digital Circuit on such a wonderful looking green table.

That said ... starting from Monday 8th. June 2020 we will be organizing a few online orders with well known slot-car hobby shops for (not much) track pieces & accessories needed for track design.

We reckon by Friday 31st July 2020 (next 8 weeks) the new SSD circuit will be completed.

Sorry no pics here but some was posted (same time) on WhatsApp ...

More updates as things develop 8-)

Okay Fellas and Good Day,

Although the post above ... is still showing one (1) more order outstanding for some Extra Doodads - Booster Pins ...

All the other essential five (5) orders of SSD Tracks & Borders were received (in great timing) and plans for Saturday 11th July to setup new digital circuit :D

Note ... what was scheduled for eight (8) weeks turned out to five (5) instead 8-)

Lookout for pics on WhatsApp this coming Saturday around noon time :)

Have a bless day,
