Someone likes NSR Moslers....
I had one of the first releases of them - inline as opposed to anything else.

How's the NSR Aston?
Are you running them with or without magnets?

Good. But not as fast as the Mosler. My fastest lap is 4.8 sec. Where as it's 4.1 sec but then the Mosler have suspension & Ortmann tyres. No magnets.

Kudos!
Real men don't use magnets
Well - unless they're for suspension - which is allowed

Haven't run Ortmanns - they were always banned at the various tracks I raced on.
My rubber of choice used to be NSR Ultragrips - trued and oiled.

Do we fancy a Retrobike Slot Race?

I have access to a room at work in sunny Bracknell - and I've put a 30m track down in there before.

Just a small track I put down for Wadsy's Stag Do.....
The tracks I put down to practice for European events were longer and more complex
