Wolves - 'Ocar' World Classic Saloons - 10/11 October 2009

Classic saloons made their annual appearance at the Wolverhampton Scalextric Club on the weekend of October 10th & 11th. This year the action was staged upon the 6 lane Aldersley circuit – a track definitely not for the faint hearted…The event is aimed at attracting scratchbuilt models of saloon cars that actually raced up until 1976. The long wheelbase regulations had been altered slightly this year in an attempt to vary the grid. The 1976 cut off date meant that cars such as Jaguar XJ12s and Rover 3.5 SD1s were no longer eligible. However, the car that did adhere to the new regs was the Ford Capri, and as a result was the ‘racers’ choice.

Long Wheel Base Grand Final - 5 minutes
38.41 laps - 1st Mark Cockerton OCAR Ford Capri/Pitlane Chassis
37.86 laps - 2nd Steve (Slotbox) OCAR Ford Capri/Pitlane Chassis
37.05 laps - 3rd Roy Pritchards OCAR Ford Capri/pitlane Chassis
36.35 laps - 4th Bill Charters Carrera Ford Capri/HRS Chassis
36.29 laps - 5th Mick Kerr Carrera Ford Capri/Scratchbuilt Chassis
34.21 laps - 6th Mike Thompson Carrera Ford Capri / Scratch built Chassis

Short Wheel Base Class
A Final 5 minutes
36.23 Laps - 1st Graham Windle Mini Cooper
35.65 laps - 2nd Dick Smith Trabbant
31.82 laps - 3rd Ralph Parker Ausin A35
31.45 laps - 4th James Noake NSU TT
31.04 laps - 5th Alexis Gaitanis Fiat 695
28.73 laps - 6th Owen Cooper Fiat Abarth

With a number of the usual modeller/builders not in attendance, concours was arguably not so hard fought this year. However, that did not stop Marlon Foakes and Rob Davies producing two magnificent models. Marlon’s re-working of an ‘Ocar’ Vauxhall Firenza resin shell based upon the late, great Gerry Marshals ‘Old Nail’ was simply stunning and a worthy overall winner of the Concours Trophy. Rob Davies ‘Traffic Models’ resin Sunbeam Rapier was equally as impressive and quite rightly earned him 2nd place. Yours truly entered an ‘Ocar’ Ford Capri RS2600 modelled on the 1971 Spa 24 hour winner. It got me a 3rd place cup, but with so many other Capris around at the weekend it lacked the all important ‘novelty’ factor.
