First Brass Chassis

Well after this sweet little Porche 356 fell in my lap the other week I thought I'd try something new , n...

I have had one for quite some time now and have to say it is quite special to me and I always get a warm fuzzy feeling when I put it on the track . Hopefully it's the joy of this slot car and not a short in my controller ! My favourite part is th...

Scaley Vanwall 1957

Howdy

Just chasing a scaley Vanwall '57 . A Cartrix would be fine also but I'm not worried about brand . Anything considered , buy or swap , if you dare .

Re: Trophy Class

The reason for retaining the exclusivity of the name is that I am fostering a small slot group on the south side,

Thats just beautiful , so you weren't tired of organising meetings , you were just tired of us ! I new there was an alterior motive , just had to wait and see what it was .
