Policar Lotus 72 on the way

[Dangermouse]

I have a small glimmer of hope my online store (is telling me it is due next week) and they are offering free next day postage.

So long as it is before Wednesday I could have a Gold Leaf Christmas

For those anxiously awaiting the Policar Lotus 72, Maurizio has added another comment to the thread on the British BB:

"Glad to inform you that the first Policar Lotus 72 are now trickling through the distributors and retailers.
I just got home from a race in Milano - 6 hand out Policar Lotus 72 for an IROC type race (car stays in lane, drivers rotate).
Overall, each car was raced very hard for 90' and it was a complete success."

I hope that some of these "trickle through" US distributors soon.

Following Luf's Law (Every Proxy Race Should Have A Video), Maurizio included the following clip:

I'm still drooling over this Policar Lotus 72. For a detailed look at the car's internals, Slot.it's Maurizio Ferrari has added this link:

That is my only worry as well old johnny - though I understand there is no magnet in the car so that could be a good sign given how well it hangs on..

I'm ok with slot cars that are too fast right outta the box.

Personal preferences. Hopefully we see a new motor line that will allow those on tighter tracks to tone them down.

If not, it's why I have adjustable power :) We do it with Scaley, we will do it here.

Yes , your right John, I also heard the pods and chassis etc will be available.
I saw on another site where the chassis designer Andrew Roland used one to build a scratch F1 car.
I think there is a lot of potential for Classic F1 fans here.
The fast cars are great 8n the commercial or club tracks, but I have found using anythi g from the old Artin to, the M/T or BWA motors also works. After all if the motors are all the same they should remain competitive. And it should be a lot easier to put a slower motor in one of these than the Scaley Legends.

Anyone get theirs yet? I wonder if Harry plans a review.

The spare parts will be popular too. Lots of cars those will work in .
