VRAA Stuff You Need & Where To Find It


It has been a long time since the old VRAA Resources thread was updated. Most of the information posted there is now out of date, so I have un-pinned that thread to allow it to slowly sink down into the archives of the SCI VRAA sub-forum. I am replacing it with this shiny new thread where entrants (and interested observers) can post news on where to source all the bits and pieces that go into building a VRAA entry. I will start the ball rolling, but please feel free to chime in with corrections or additional ideas.

VRAA entrants Phil Kalbfell, Munter, David Mitcham and Stubbo have also created resin shells that would be appropriate for one or both classes. You can contact them for availability via a Personal Message on the Slot Car Illustrated, F132 or Auslot forums.

Next up… Motors, Chassis, Wheels and Tires.

Very useful, well done Stewart!

[old23]

I just got a message from Dave Jones in the UK and have added his period-appropriate shells to the above list.

Stewart

[David Mitcham]

Really useful Stewart, thank you. Very good news to hear Dave Jones is still in business. One you could add to the George Turner list is the just released 1956 BRM P25.

Best Regards

David
