Last weekend the GPM team should have had a sleepless night at Silverstone competing for the second year in the Citroen C1 Club 24hrs. This weekend we should be looking forward to the lunacy that is the Isle

FSW Weekly: It’s been another busy week with plenty of new arrivals to keep us and you occupied. For plastic kit builders looking for a project, there are new releases in both 1:12 and 1:24 from Tamiya. There are several fascinating new books, especially if you’re a fan of 1950s and 60s sports car racing. For Formula 1 fans there are decade by decade DVD boxed sets of highlights to enjoy for the last half century. Hand built models this week come from RPM and BBR and for the latter you will have to be very quick as we only have one or two examples that weren’t pre-sold. There is a raft of new releases from Spark with plenty of 2019 GT and LMP racers along with classic F1s and more. Matrix has several new resincast road car releases with unusual subjects as usual. In 1:18 there is a new Rolls Royce from Cult Scale Models and there are new releases in both 1:18 and 1:43 by Ixo...
