Welcome to Mr Bowcat's Racing Car & Bike GB. Chat thread

[Andy T]

I was going to go nuts with my service area idea and add a crew vehicle, but finding a big Sherpa van in 1/24, or better still a Leyland Roadrunner, is proving a bit tricky. Never mind the space it would take up! :tears-of-joy:

Theres a place that does conversion sets for the Italeri Transit van Peterairfix knows the one I mean.

Cheers Ian. I was trying to keep it "in the family" with it being a factory team, but a Ford might be all I can get.

Well, with the start date rushing upon us, I'm hoping this group build will kick-start me into being able to re-engage with this happy place once again. So thanks Bob for setting this one up.

Hi All.

Just a reminder that the GB starts this Saturday the 1st, and a last call to anyone else who wants to take part.

[Lee Drennen]

Just a reminder

Thanks Bob I haven’t forgot. I bought something the other day for my build I’ll post it later.

[Mr Bowcat]

Hi Bob.
Although I build model aircraft I am enjoying taking part in my first GB (Petes Hurricane) so as I have a racing car kit in the stash thought I would have a go with this one. Can you sign me up Bob.

Steve, so sorry, I totally missed your post.

Welcome aboard and great choice of kit. :smiling3:

I was digging out a cupboard looking for some uncoupling magnets for the RR layout & found this. It looks to be all there. May I join in?

Certainly better Sunday's procession around Monaco

[Guest]

Hmm … I still intend to take part in this with a Tamiya Tyrrell P34, but it overlapping just about completely with the D-Day group build and the stuff I want to finish before starting either of these (coupled to the trouble I have with getting off my arse and actually doing that ) means I’m not sure I actually will

[HAWKERHUNTER]

I have to agree Peter. I really think Monaco is over rated. I much prefer a track with overtake opportunity.
