Dave Wisdom has been round ours to play cars this afternoon.
He brought with him this Sunbeam Rapier he built.
Probably the finest slot car that`s ever been on my track!
Cheers,
Kev.

I had the pleasure of looking at it when i was at the Colchester meet. His work really inspires a newbie to scratch building like me.

I wish you wouldnt keep showing Dave's fabulous Rapier Kev, since it is the one car on my wanted list that was not made as a 1/43 diecast!!!

Looks great on your track though.

Regards, Lloyd

I dream that one day I might have some of Daves talent & recreate a Rapier as nice as his...failing that I`ll knock him out & nick it!

Cheers,
Kev

We have seen the gorgeous car before - but it looks really at home your layout Kev.
The combination of the two forms an excellent ambience !

Kind regards, Leo

Hi
A fab looking car on the best classic layout on the forum.Always have a look at your pics threads kev they are always great to look at.

Thanks awfully Leo & Ade...

His cars really are outstanding-wish I had 10% of Daves talent.
Dave also had a real good go on my Jouef layout, & I think he was pretty impressed with those little cars.
Cheers,
Kev.

Thanks very much for inviting me around to spend some time on your classic tracks Kev. A special thanks must also go to Mrs loosesalute for providing not just any old cakes...but M&S cakes!

Kevs Jouef track and cars really are superb - 40+ years old and the 1:43 little gem model slot cars really do fly! Hope I didnt cause too much damage...

Cheers,
Dave

Dave's done a stunning job on the Rapier and it looks more than at home on Kev's track.
