Has anyone tried the Scalex Skoda Fabia yet?
I wanted to know if they ran like all other Scalex rally cars without the magnet and with or without four wheel drive engaged- anyone?

Get well A S A P mate. I`ll see if I can get some one who knows what they`re doing to post some shots of the stages after the event!

Absolutely! Ordinary three pin plug type controllers can be used except for the Ninco stage, when everyone uses the same Ninco one. Tell you what - I`ll try and get the bar open for an hour or two

6R4! They don`t even let them in real Post Historic rallying never mind Classics.
Perhaps next year we can have a Post Historic and Group 4 class!!
With Quattro`s ,Mark 2`s, Lancia int`s, 205`s etc all from that era and let in resins(like my Roger Clark Cossack Escort).

I don`t think Phil Field thought about multiple entries per class but I would imagine that each entry would be £4 - course if you ran 4 WRC`s and say two historics it could turn out to be an expensive day!
Most people run one WRC and one Historic and mostly the kids just do one WRC.
As far as the stages go - yes some short and twisty, some faster and flowing the made up Ninco stage is quite long, I`m not sure if the Carrera one will make an appearance as we have six others but I can safely say that the flour will not be used this year as we (I) was a bit over zealous with it on the Aberstone stage last year and we couldn`t get up the hill to the alpine section, resulting in the track being hoovered before the second runs and Don Stanley`s motor being unclogged with switch cleaner.
However the sawdust in the logging area worked quite well and earlier in the year at our local carnival in a leaky old army tent the rain water made it quite interesting so we may have a few puddles, a bit of insulating tape sealing motor and chassis will help, it has been refered to as a sump guard to stop the motor shorting out on the yumps and crests.
Wing mirrors are only an optional extra - probably better if they "fell off" for one tight stage (say no more).
Jeff - it`ll be nice to see you.
