3DP Gr7 Proxy Reminder: CARS DUE APRIL

[chappyman66]

All, just a reminder that cars will be due to Minneapolis in April. Let's say mid-April, just to be safe.
That's about 3 weeks away, if you allow time for shipping.

Now...@racer1h can print and build a car in 2-3 days....but most of us take a bit longer.
Hopefully you have had a chance to run and tune them a little.
So get them built, then get them packed and shipped!

You can ship them to my attention.

Hi chappy, any chance of a bit more information on how this proxy business works for people who have not entered one before such as myself. Like shipping, how do we get our cars back, is there a fee to ship to other people's tracks ! I'm not sure how to go about it. I'm shipping from Australia, are there any tracks from here in the proxy ? I'd appreciate an idea of the cost so I can budget for this, thanks rastas.

Hi Rastas,
Your cars get shipped back to you when the races are complete.
I haven't had any confirmation from other hosts although some track owners did originally express interest.

We have three tracks here in Minneapolis that we will run, so that's without additional shipping.

Generally $20-25 USD per entrant covers the cost.

Car sent this afternoon , hopefully it'll be there on time!

[chappyman66]

Thanks for the update, I will confirm upon receipt.

[chappyman66]

There is one car in house, and two in transit.
We had 20 entries.

Hopefully there are a number of cars getting finished and shipped shortly. We are three weeks away!

Everything has been printed and purchased. I just got the first coat of primer on my car today. Having 4 kids under 9 years old it's been hard to find the time for hobbies. I'll be a last minute shipper but still plan on sending it. Thanks!

[chappyman66]

Wow, Jamie...I am surprised you find time for sleep! I used to nap when my two boys were napping.....four is a bundle for sure! You should be fine, we will look forward to it!

Hey Paul, all the bits are painted now and ready,
the Mclaren gets her coat tomorrow..
Been chasing the Shadow trio, two engines to put in and fit their cockpits..
The McLaren will hit the mail by Friday...
(friends are leading LMP3 at Sebring, from the pole...👍)
Cheers,
Paul

[chappyman66]

Hey Paul, good to hear....Hope to see it running here soon!

[chappyman66]

I have updated the entry list with our second withdrawal. No worries, real life definitely comes before slot cars.

All entrants....please keep me advised of shipments. I will post to the arrival thread as cars arrive.

[chappyman66]

Paul, the McLaren arrived in perfect shape. Will put up separate post.
