    I just wanted to say how excited I am to have received the first Lotus 72D model from Maurizio! This car mark's the 10th release from the range in 7 years since Maurizio began. Actually I designed the gearbox back in winter 2011 but these things take time to get started... So I just wanted to...

    Tyrrell P34 Policar gearbox conversion for Scalextric 1976 model How to: So as ever you will need a donor car. Currently I think Scalextric have only released the car as a twin set so you have a choice of either car or both! This conversion is reversible for the Scalextric P34. 1...

    Our club will start a new race Series in about a month's time that features the NSR, Slot.It and Policar models of the Ford and Ferrari sports prototypes that fought each other in 1966-7 (see here). To liven up the grid I decided to enter painted white kits of the NSR Ford GT MkII and MkIV, plus...

    For the Hawthorne Park Policar GP in November i've decided to convert a March by removing the side pods and front wings and add the small spoiler as Mario ran in this race. In order to differentiate from the to works cars STP had Mario's car painted in day glo red as per their Indy cars of the...

    Here are some pics of the first prototypes being assembled: https://www.letratslot.com/policar-des-nouvelles-du-projet-ferrari-312-b2-pour-le-slot/ It looks really promising. I like the different options for the nose and the wing.

    This conversion is one of the simpler ones. SRC have made a nice model so rather than replace all the rear end detail I have opted to keep it. This does mean that the large cylinder covering the original crowngear remains present but overall I think this is a reasonable compromise. You will...

    This is a how-to for converting a Scalextric Brabham BT26 into a Policar racer. The Scalextric model I have has a few minor defects that the other Scalextric cars don't have. I'm not sure if this was a batch problem or is a defect of the whole model design. I found that the back of the body is...

    Here is a rather rare 1/24th scale Policar 300 SP set made in 1967. I got the set without the cars but I had the correct cars already. The set never came with a transformer. It is a huge box and not in the greatest shape. But it is a important set to have for the museum. I have not seen one so...
