Question Parma International
#4

Hello, Parma first produced the "Womps" (and the "homeset" variant) in 1972/73. and these were primarily targeted at kids wishing to get involved in commercial track type racing, and "Womp" classes were established and  run at most North American raceways. The "homeset" cars were bit big for most home based plastic track type racing, and they came with a milder motor than the "Womp", so their sales were not that great for either the homeset or commercial track racer.

Neither have been produced for several years (but lots are still to be found on auction sites), and sadly Parma, who likely sold more than the rest combined (1/32, 1/24, Radio Control....cars. kits, motors, bodies,  tires, gears, parts, and most notably,..controllers) .....folded their tent a few years ago.

Cheers
Chris Walker
