RE: Virtual Orpington Swapmeet April 2020 - Scuderia_Turini - 7th-Apr-20

The ALTAYA  cars tend to be re-issues of Exin era cars. I think that they are made from the original moulds but with modern materials. So the Lancia Stratos and Lancia Rally/037 have more robust chassis and wheels and generally a better look due to tamo print rather than stickers. I have not heard of them as being collectable but they run a lot better than the 80s originals. 

Have you seen Phil Smith's  summary of Spanish Scalextric car production? - Linky

No, I hadn't seen that before...I will study and commit to memory for my next (first!) swop meet.

In a similar vein, there seem to we a variety of derivatives of the Fly brand; Fly Slot, Fly GB Track...anything important to know there, or, again, do they all share standard, common, available, components?
