george13 Posted February 22, 2019 Share Posted February 22, 2019 Hello andy, I remember that there was an application that told you the best routes to race and clubs. Good luck, George. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But yes, have just moved close to Bristol (BS20) and have a pemanent layout - and looking for someone to race against.ChasHi Chas,spotted your post, while looking for a Club in the Bristol area, would you believe it, I live on the coast road between Clevedon and Portishead.I'm a bit "rusty" not had a set for a while, but it would be fun to race on a permanant layout.I would need to "borrow" a car from you to race, but if I don't make a complete idiot of myself I would happily buy myself a "team".Looking forward to hearing from you.Regards,Paul.

Chadow Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 Hi Paul, How would you like to meet up first and have a talk? The Ship would probably be closest for both of us. No ides how to do a private message on this forum.RegardsChas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy P. Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 Private messages and exchanging personal information is unfortunately not available in this forum.You can try slotracer.online and communicate there... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chadow Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 Thanks Andy,I guessed as much - hence the suggestion of a meet-up at a local hostelry. BTW, those Tyrrell P34s are a cracking pair of cars,let's hope for a couple of Triumphs soon....RegardsChas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy P. Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 Ditto on the Triumphs!No one has ever made a MKIV or 1500 Spitfire in 1/32 (or 1/24) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chadow Posted March 2, 2020 Share Posted March 2, 2020 Hi Paul,We went a bit off topic there, but, if you are still interested, it doesn't matter about being rusty or not having cars. They are there to have fun with, not worrying about knocking off a wing mirror in a crash! I race for fun, not to win.CheersChas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pebbleridge Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 Hi Chas,Thanks for getting back to me.Normally the Ship would be perfect, but I'm currently having cancer treatment (Neck) and unfortunately have to try and keep away from lots of folk if I can avoid it, because the chemo reduces my risk of catching stuff.I've signed up for the slotracer.online forum that was suggested (same user name) so via PM we could exchange mobiles then txt contact info.How does that sound?I also have a slight problem with meeting at a Pub, I presently can't swallow anything, I have all my food and drink, via a tube. Sounds gross but works well.Regards,Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy P. Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 Best of luck to you in your recovery! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chadow Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 Hi Paul,All done, have sent a pm on that forum with my works number - it has an answerphone if I'm not in so I can call back. Can talk more then. Echo that Andy.CheersChas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pebbleridge Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 Many thanks to Andy P and Chadow for your good wishes.I'm nearing the end of my treatment, and the outcome is very optomistic.Regards,Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chadow Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 Hi Andy,I've been trying, on and off, to post a couple of pictures of my track, but I am continually getting the message '403 FORBIDDEN' Had the same message when I tried to post some pictures of the Triumphs that I have converted from Scalextrix/Ocar/PSR....Any idea as to what's up?CheersChas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy P. Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 Aperently something has gone extremely pear shaped with the form software and it is being looked into but given pandemic, resources (time and money) and priorities it is taking time to sort out.Another community moderator has posted that if you are using a mobile device to save the photo to the Files folder which converts the file to JPEG (I think) that the forum likes better than trying to upload directly.If you are using a computer I recommend usign IrafnView to maybe reduce the resolution and save it as JPEG and try to upload it there.Let me know if that helps and also feel free to contact the forum admin forum@hornby.com as well as customer service at the right.The more messages they get about the issue the higher they will prioritize it...Thanks and let me know how it goes!

Andy P. Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 Pity... This doesn't have anything to do with Sniff&Smith's theory that Bristol is stuck in the 90's does it?:-D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul-346202 Posted February 6 Share Posted February 6 Scalextric need to bring back online racing! Surely a option with ARC? Why not join Global Racing League (GRL) next year? Hit up Rahul at Conquest on YT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
