I had the pleasure of making another visit to RCR yesterday. It's coming up on 4 years since SLC-007 was delivered and even longer than that since I last visited the shop. Just wanted to say thank you to Fran, Vicki, Mike, and all the guys in the shop for the hospitality and time they were able to spend with me. Hopefully, I didn't get in the way too much while I was taking all of the pictures! I'll post the pictures in the near future.
Needless to say there's a LOT going on at RCR - wow! The new Superlite offering is going to be impressive. Mike is doing an amazing job with the foam work on the body. From what Fran described this car will bring the "component car" to an entirely new level and for a reasonable price - sorry, no pictures.
It was fun to see the development that has taken place with the SLC - nothing earth shattering but changes that make the car even better than it was originally...and easier to manufacture/assemble.
If you ever visit RCR ask Fran about the Slot Car tracks. Fran - I should have taken notes on the name of the place but I was a bit overwhelmed. If you love slot cars and LARGE realistic tracks that reflect the real tracks the buyer wants to replicate then you'll love this place. A bit out of my price range but very cool to see.
The phone was ringing off the hook and e-mails were flying after the Gearz show. I probably couldn't have picked a worst day for my visit but Fran took it in stride.
Thanks again Fran for everything. I really enjoyed the visit - - and I love the hat!
