Posted: Mon Mar 04, 2019 9:19 pmI have The Porsche van, and no mag, with stock glued and trued rubber are a riot!
My buddy has the Jager van, and we had too much fun.
Note to some of you, check the clearance of your timing tower.
Mine was about a 1/4 inch too low so I had to use a taller custom one so we could get some times.
Hoping to follow with pics :D

Posted: Sun Jul 21, 2019 5:05 pmI was flipping channels and starting watching Grand Prix, when I noticed this VW Van in the background of one of the scenes. Would be another cool paint scheme for Scalextric, hint, hint.

Posted: Tue Jul 23, 2019 9:10 amMy Jager VW is so tippy it will fall over if you look at it but it's a cool addition to the slot box.
I'll post once I've put an HRS chassis under it...

Posted: Thu Jul 25, 2019 7:23 pmI like the vans but I'd probably never really run them. I bet they are a blast though.

Posted: Thu Jul 25, 2019 9:44 pmI think they could make excellent proxy vehicles at 14k to 15k motors lowered with a little weight and some tires.

Posted: Thu Jul 25, 2019 11:28 pmStill tippy after conversion to a transporter.
Agreed that a less powerful slimline motor would be helpful for driveability.
