ARCHWAY

Trying to catch up . . . I have added a few more pics from the Motor Racing to my Blip yesterday . . . and found out more information, especially about the vehicle blipped.
Legends Cars are 5/8 scale racers based on pre-war Ford, Chevy and Dodge bodies. Eight body styles are produced.
Wheel Base 73″. . . Overall Width 60″ . . . Overall Length 126″ . . . Height 46″
Interestingly, racers don’t use qualifying times to determine grid position. Instead, they use a ballot draw – each driver pulls a ball from a bag – the number and colour of the ball determines where on the grid cars starts in their first race. Placements are reversed for a drivers second race. Grand fun was had by all. More important still . . . it is the CAR that scores the points, not the driver. This makes the series extra attractive to those on a tight budget – two or more drivers can share a car for the season.
Extras include Off Course . . . BTCC off at Clervaux bend . . . Stranded . . . in the gravel . . . Winning Team . . . the NAPA Garage . . . And Away . . . Formula Four car skids off.
Image today shows the archway at the Spa in Scarbados.
