Nice to see a gradual diversion from manufactures into other than GT3 territory.
Revos are probably just about the biggest dividers of opinion on the slot scene in recent times, totally marmite, out of twenty regular members at our club, four of us have four Revos each, another member one only, we run on a non club night every eight weeks, as crash and Marshall yourself.
Of the five of us I'm the only one who will be going down the group 2 route, so I'll be restricted to running in free practice at the club and on my 50 foot four lane Ninco in the roof, but I'm happy with that.
Revo are to be applauded at group 2 saloons as it's a newish area, they will be better runners than both Fly and Scaley offerings, also by picking some Trans Am entered Alfa's it might tempt the guys stateside.
Group 2 is also a growth area for Scaley, as the popularity of the Goodwood Historic races under the Gerry Marshall moniker seems to be growing.
Regardless of what anyone thinks of the handling characteristics, Scaley have recently introduced some good looking saloons, that have graced the previous incarnation of the British touring car championship of the eighties and the Spa 24 hours before it was GT3.
Capri mk 3, SD1 Rover, impact bumper Camaro, 70 Hemi Cuda, plenty of liveries there for Simon, also nice to see that the Tobacco liveries are being featured.
So a mix of Scaley and Revo group 2 saloons is welcome by me, add in the SRC mark 1 Capri and it's a great grid.
If you wanted to go really left field, then the touring cars of the early seventies threw up some interesting choices ,Moscovitch and Opel Commodore GSE, spring to mind, but no one in their right mind is going there.
Couple of cars that have potential imho are the mk 2 Jag, surely on Simon's longer term radar, think of Morse and Police car opportunities there, also a proper narrow body 911s .
As ever Revo equals marmite.
