Thanks Dave! Don't forget camaros lol In my opinion, if the slot car companies did some advertising they might sell more sets and cars! Most people don't even know what slot cars are or that they still exist!
Well I am sitting here now with 7 Carrera Digital 1/32 mustangs and they are by far the favorites here with our friends. So you nailed it as to what should be promoted and sold. Interesting F1 was not a good sellerand I guess still isn't a good seller at least for Carrera.🏁
Slot cars are not promoted in the states. There are no associations like in RC cars and planes and model railroads. Heck, unlike standardizing DCC in model railroading, the slot manufacturers couldn't even establish a standard for digital.
agreed. I had suggested this when I worked for Scalextric and Carrera. Sadly not enough have raced with the exact same body to make it make money I fear.
Hello Dave , can you mention to the people of Carrera that it would be appreciated if they could sell spare display cases in 1/32 and 1/24. Maybe also in bundles of 5 ? I am sure these could be popular.
Lots of people throw out the cases. You can ask for cases on HRW buy/sell forum if you pay for shipping. Carrera cases are big, so shipping would be $.
HAPPY FRIDAY FELLOW SLOTTERHEADS AND DAVE
Wow I thought the car count would be a lot higher. Cheers for the insights. Interesting.
No, you can’t be over “Gulf’d”……no such thing😂. Particularly Gulf 917 K’s …… those look spectacular! So do the new C8R’s🔥

Thanks for the weekly update.
very insightful, thanks dave
The Sacaelauto RS cars look sweet!
Maybe at this time with F1 popularity growing so much in the US, Carrera would sell much more than they think. I’m waiting for new F1 slot cars
We need a foxbody Mustang 1979 to 1993 please,
