Like the look of these, plenty of liveries and models, should look good on the grid.

Yes but the gearing is a real letdown (27/9), it runs out of legs very early.

It sounds like your dissapointed Rob ?

It might just be a dud/slow motor not revving to its max ? is it the same ratio as the 997 porsche ?

maybe the parity has already been done for us ?

something else that come to mind is , I have a few different scalextric LMP cars , which some of them are (sorry steve if this sounds familiar ) PODDED !!!

Nincos angle winder set up is  normally 32/12 which is around 2.667 compared to the 27/9 at 3.

Perhaps 27/9 is thier standard set up for an inline motor. The other thing I noticed no sprung guide for these puppies.

Out of the box it behaved well and with a decent set of MJKs it will be fun to drive.

Raises the question how do we ensure parity? is it theoretical RPM at the rear axle?

need to be mindful here of what you run. If there was ever a class of car with wide variety of performance betwen makes this is the one. But what a great class and variety of cars. Perhaps we can schedule a 3-4 hour teams enduro for this class.???

Hi Guy's,

As this is a popular new class, we could all bring whatever LMP's we have to the last or last two races.
Once the championship races are over we could see how well and how close the LMP's run.

Regards
NimROD

I think before we get ahead of ourselves (new classes) - if we add more classes to the existing ones it will mean all classes are raced less or we run more classes per round?
