B&W works. The inline one will need a slimline as it’s a little top heavy.

95% complete…I just need to test that it goes in the right direction and clearance an inner fender as I’m off just a hair on the mounting of the body. I usually don’t build cars that look this good so we will see if it will perform.

After changing the rear tyres I needed a pair of wheel knock-offs and one for my other car yet to be revealed...
These are resin 3D printed and a push fit over a 3/32 axle.

Completed the RoadRunners proxy cars,
Tested my version of the David Pipers Ferrari P330 Spyder against my usual club race car and the GT40 from the previous "GT Sports Cars Slotting Proxy" and it is faster than both , at least on my track

As we've seen...anything can/will happen

...I've come to the conclusion that build it so it's somewhere near half decent then send it
