I think that's a relatively modern GT2 Porsche not a 60's Porsche.

In fact now it's been mentioned, the Revoslot is a late 90's GT2 not a 60's/70's 934. If this is a period proxy they shouldn't be included.

It might be a good idea to check what era a car is from before rushing headlong into a car build.

Not seen any of the Revoslot 934's. Only pictures are a side view drawing. The Proslot/Revoslot body, I have, is a GT2. The Scalextric body, certainly looks like the mid 70's 934 photo's, on the internet. As near as you would expect with a Scalextric car of that period.

Well, with both my Scalextric BMW and Scalextric Porsche 934, being disallowed, there's nothing suitable in my box for Group 2.

Ah yes, the Revo 934, the release date is imminent April/May...now that's what must be on Graham's list Thumbup

I expect it will be carrying the Fly Porsche 934 body. After all, the Revo Marcos is very close to the Fly body, with a few minor changes.

I wonder if the Fly 934 will be allowed? Seems strange to only allow the Revoslot one in?

RE: Targa Florio Road Race Slot Car Proxy- REGISTRATION - Kevan - 20th-Apr-25

Fly 934 is already on the list as a Group 3 car

RE: Targa Florio Road Race Slot Car Proxy- REGISTRATION - Kevan - 20th-Apr-25

Ninco 934 should be on the list also

I can see that in my efforts to clarify, I have in deed caused further confusion.

My basic reasoning is that prototype cars should be in our Group 3, and from what I read the Porsche 934 was designated as a Group 4 prototype car in reality which led onto the 935 (GR5) car. Most of the Porsche 934 cars I have viewed indeed have wide rear wheel arches just like the Porsche 911 Carrera RSR.
So I placed the Porsche 911 Carrera RSR & Porsche 934 in our group 3 with the other prototype cars and incidentally the De Tomaso ( Gr 4) and Ford GT40.

So when pictures of the Revoslot 934 arrived I thought it should also be included in the proxy, but Revoslots are only permitted in Gr 2.

What I will do is take the pre order Revoslot Porsche 934 off the list again, and only allow the other brand versions in our Group 3, back to what it was. It is worth reminding everyone that such cars should be authentic 1970’s versions of the cars and not later cars outside the era of the Targa Florio period.

Well back to the drawing board for cars 2 and 3. The 934s are apparently in Washington state or will be soon.

RE: Targa Florio Road Race Slot Car Proxy- REGISTRATION - Graham - 20th-Apr-25

I have withdrawn the Revoslot Porsche 934 at least for know, until I can get a car to measure ??

Any other version of the Porsche 934 with Plastic chassis can run in Group 3
