48th Scalextric Club (16th December 2013)
Today we remember passed members in the Memorial Trophy event at the London Scalextric Club.
We race a set of six Lotus Elise prepared much like the Rally & Touring Car class. These are repaired and refurbished club cars used over the past few years.
I love these cars! The handle very flat and they slide before tipping out. Coupled with modest motors, they are wonderfully forgiving of newcomers but still reward for expert drivers with slightly faster times.

Blue crashed but caught up and stormed ahead. Close for us 3 but Terry on Red got it! Satisfying race with no real mistakes from me. Not as expert as the old timers but very close to their pace.

There was a Grand Final after this which saw Pete win over all.
