Wow, this looks like fun! Great layout and an awesome grid of cars. I agree with you, the new Scaley GTs are great!

Agree completely, these GT3 cars are amazing, we ran them in a 6 hr digital enduro last September. Out of the box car only changes were tyres, most had MJK fitted to rear, bushings/motor glued . Routed 2 lane track with Scalextric digital intergrated. 6 cars on 2 lanes. All cars finished, only a few minor hiccups with a few cars, braid changes mostly, no motors cooked, no chips died.
We set an 8.40sec breakout after qualifying 2 x McLaren MP12, 2 x Falken Porsche 991, 1 x BMW Z4
After 6 hrs the winning Falken Porsche completed 2265 laps (fastest 8.414), 2nd was a McLaren on 2229 laps (fastest 8.404), 3rd Falken Porsche on 2207 laps (fastest 8.400), 4th BMW Z4 2177 laps (fastest 8.413), 5th McLaren 2145 laps (fastest 8.404)
just shows how evenly matched these are in either configuration
Both Falken Porsches are still blindingly fast now!

We ran our GT3 class on a 4 lane analogue track, magnabraid, approximately 35m lane length, cars have standard magnet, just tyre change on rear allowed, race was 50 laps per heat in the dark, car lights and under bridge lighting
winner was Gulf Mercedes quickest lap was 5.8sec, Falken Porsche, 5.7 sec, Gulf Porsche, 5.8 sec, BMW Z4, 5.8 sec, Falken Porsche 5.9 sec,
SCX corvette, 6.2 sec.
great fun running with just the car lights,some really close battles and it made you really concentrate on where your car was during each heat
