Daytona Prototype News...Resilient Resins

Resilient Resins has some cool 1/24 cars coming out soon...very soon.

From Douglas Haynes himself, "The big news in 1/24 is the Riley Mk XI Daytona Prototype. Resilient Resins first modern era racer and the first coupe body." Great news from a cool niche company.

I'm a huge fan of the Rolex Series and hopefully Resilient Resins will have enough interest from customers to maybe make 1/32 versions of these cars too...no pressure...heheeeee.

I'll take one of these please in 1/32.


Also news from Resilent Resins on the vintage racing front too...
"We will be offering several exciting new 1/32 bodies very soon. The mate to our Cunningham C2R.. the C4R will be released in a month or so. We also have an original RR design Chaparral 2 coming soon. Finally, we expect to release the Kimberly Indy Cooper T54 right after the Chaparral 2."

Photos of all these great new shells can be seen on Resilient Resins site.

New features on SCN

Well I've been working on some new things here at SCN.
1. I've added a translation program from Babel Fish. There are lots of international viewers so I hope this helps everyone read what's posted here.
2. A "picsearch" box has been added under the Google box as well. It's a good search engine devoted to images only, very cool.
3. Also a "Top 100 bloggers" pole button...feel free to vote if you're so moved. Currently this site is 12th among the "blogspot" domain.
4. A comments/suggestions box on the right side as well. Feel free to make any off topic suggestions there.
5. I've added a list of Slot.It catalog PDF downloads.
6. A Topix.net headlines box...that should be showing "Nascar" headlines, they jury is still out on whether this feature will stay since it appears to be showing whatever the heck it feels like presently!
7. The webpole will be taken until the end of this year. Late in December the company of the year will be announced and the total number of votes revealed. So let's all get out the vote shall we? This is a free version of the webpole software so go easy on the number of times you click to view results.

And most importantly...
8. I've just spend the last few hours (yeah I'm no HTML wiz like Mike on SCI) working on a footer box with an archive of reviews. Please check this out near the bottom of the page.

Please check out the new additions. I like using the whole webpage so don't feel like the top story is the only thing that changes. I'm always looking tweak the design here.

Also I add links to the page nearly everyday. Today I added some F1 teams to the links. Recently I added links to slot bloggers. If you've got a link you'd like to see added let me know.
