Hi guys,
Whilst the 'Venue' and Classes for the 2011 MCN, are now established, (being at HSC, see here;
http://forum.ascra.com.au/viewtopic.php?f=17&t=416 which as is typical of the place, I am Sure will prove to be a great event.
I guess, having seen Perry's posts re a relatively Newish Slot Car centre in Queensland called unfortunately,.."iLOL Industries" see here;
http://forum.ascra.com.au/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=476 I went looking for a Web site or Any further information etc and I Have to say, what I found HERE;
http://www.slotcarouthouse.com/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=765..was Extremely interesting, to say the Least!!
Here we have, (in My Mind atleast), what could possibly be described as an Almost Perfect "Model Car Nationals" style of Centre !!
From Many of my previous 'posts', you can easily glean My Own preferences for racing 1/32 scale cars on appropriately Scaled 1/32 scale Tracks, instead of running 1/32 cars on 100mm 1/24th scale tracks.
It's Not so much the Length, as the Lane spacing, Obviously if one build to 1/32 scale, then a track with Farb greater lap length Can be built than a 1/24th scale track, (Multi-Lane ofcourse!).
I looked at the tracks at the iLOL Centre and could only think Wow!,..what Great looking Fast and Challenging Tracks !! and at the Correct Scale !!
The fact they are also constructing a 1/24th scale track, which if the 1/32 scale tracks are anything to go by, should Also be an interesting design, so the centre as such, would strike Me as Perfect for the Classes that appear to be Popular from the events so far!
I'd certainly like to have a Race around the tracks shown !!
So far it's been at Dapto, Melbourne and will be in Sydney in 2011, perhaps it Should be Qld's turn for 2012 !!??
