Scaletrix is currently working on a Schanche 1991 ERC winning RS200 anyway.

though we did get a STP mk3 with a John Welch feel, and Escort Cosworths of Steve Palmer and Barry Squibb. I do feel scalextrix are missing a trick, because with their digital system and pit lane track, they could do a rallycross set with a joker lap...... |

Didn't they once do a Rallycross special edition of Scaletrix? I'm sure I remember something with Minis and bumpy grass/mud track from Christmases long ago...?

You remember those Christmas Days well - think it was released in 1978 with Mini Clubmans and ran for a few years. The green track is now rare - used for the horse racing one as well.
I continue to seek counselling for being a geek. Mark |

After wanting scalextric to make rallycross cars for so long, I dare not believe it. But I suppose in a way in makes sense as the RS200 had a longer life and achieved far more on the rallycross circuits than it ever did in rallying. |

Some time ago I was contacted by Justin S., who runs the genuine RS200 website (not the bulk copied one) and did the recent RS200 book, for pics of Martin's RS200 for the company. The first representative of them wanted defo the 1992 car/livery that was involved in the Schanche/Gollop/Rantanen incident in Finland when Martin stopped the A final and was subsequently blocked for some ERC rounds. Later on another of their man contacted me and wanted pics of the 1991 ERC winning car, that I had recommended to the first man several times. As I then understood that the left hand there did not know what the right hand was doing (they also mixed up the golden roof Bitsa with chassis #012, the first ever E2) I gave up my efforts. However, I'm certain they found other pics to bring out a Schanche 1991 RS200 soon.

Sounds promising. Great that the slotracing community is rediscovering rallycross.
I wonder if Scalextric will produce a miniature Schanche figure you can put out on the track to stop the race when things go wrong?

Hope the cars look better then the photoshot.
Mark you may find the Rallycross set was then re-introduced as this set (I have both Minis but sadly no green track) - http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/260823492316?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649 Last edited by MiniMadness; 3 Jan 2012 at 18:22. |

Renny debuted the RS200 in 1986, not '85.

 Just glad Scalextric has finally got round to a proper 6R4, rather than just the prototype version. But as they will be doing a rally version, I guess the rallycross version will end up with the air intakes on the doors. Last edited by Stephen H; 3 Jan 2012 at 20:49. |

another Scalextric Rallycross model on the way...
the preview clue on the scalextric website - "From the European Rallycross series in 1991 - a beast of the track!" the picture shows a 2 and part of an H on a Blue Background so guessing a British Championship car - Trevor Hopkins 2nd RS200 Anyway, well done for another rallycross car scalextric!!!! A Hoppy would be good to add to the Gollop 6R4, Schanche RS200, Squibb Escort Cosworth, Palmer Escort Cosworth and Welch look alike STP XR3i they have done in the past |
