If one looks at the cars of the 60's , and glances at Indianapolis, 2 cars that will always stand out are the Lotus Turbines for 67 and 68. These were the days that old Colin's mind was working very laterally indeed.

The red STP stands out in any company.

I built the chassis to fit the bottom of the car, for weight and handling, not that it has a hugely powerful motor in it. It is a Classic body.

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

I think for me the most iconic slotcar of the 60's is thr Cox Lotus 40. I can remember absolutely lusting after it as a kid but we could not afford it. It took me 55 years before I got around to buying one. In fact there are now 3 .

I was very very lucky in actually getting all the parts and the car to make the 30, which was the earlier version.
