SOLD SCX Compact NASCAR, DTM & MotoGP goodies
#1

Part two of the 1:43 scale clear-out is an ultimate SCX Compact NASCAR package…

Many 1:43 fans consider SCX compact as a better system for enthusiasts than Carrera Go. The cars are less stuck down, have traditional guide flags and respond well to being converted to non-mag running. The track is more robust and has a rougher surface (like SCX classic) which also aids non-mag cars. It’s also easier to upgrade power and controllers, if need be. Compact has been difficult to find in the UK, although new SCX distributor Gaugemaster does support Compact.

Carrera Go!!! and the WRC rally cars work nicely on SCX Compact track (particularly non-mag) as do scratch-builds and older cars like the lovely Jouef models.

         

First, there is a brand new - still with its inner polythene seal - NASCAR Tri-Oval Superspeedway set. The layout is 15.9 feet long and takes up a space of 3.6 x 6.4 ft. There are wide-radius banked curves, lap counter and crossovers (I have brand new straights to replace those, if needed). It has a UK power supply. For NASCAR buffs, the cars are pre-COT Ford Fusions of Matt Kenseth and Greg Biffle.

The box is pristine. This would make an awesome present.

Price: £50 + postage at cost.

Now a load of cars to go with the set…

   

These three pairs are all sealed in their packets. We have a pair of COT Chevy Impalas (#29 Kevin Harvick + #88 Dale Junior blue National Guard version), a Chevy & Ford COT twin pack (#99 Carl Edwards + #88 Dale Junior green Amp version) and two pre-COT Fusions (#99 Carl Edwards + #17 Matt Kenseth). Price: £20 for each packet + postage at cost

   

These have been opened for a photoshoot, but are unused. We have two more Chevy COT Impalas (#31 Jeff Burton + #88 Dale Junior National Guard blue version) plus a very rare Toyota (Joey Logano) vs the #29 Chevy of Kevin Harvick… That was quite a rivalry! 

Price: £20 per pair + postage at cost.

Finally, some lightly used, unboxed cars…

       

This includes a rare Greg Biffle COT Fusion, plus four pre-COT Fusions - Biffle, Kenseth (x2) and Edwards. One of the #17 DeWalt cars has had the magnet removed and K&D urethane tyres fitted.

Price: £20 the lot + shipping at cost.

For anyone prepared to buy the whole lot at discount price of £150 + postage at cost, I will throw in some extras including five pairs of K&D urethanes for SCX Compact NASCARs and three sheets of Pattos Place decals (Taco Bell #34 and Target #42 for the COT Chevy and #7 Motorola for the pre-COT Fusion). Some nice project potential there.

There’s still a SCX Compact MotoGP set to come, plus four DTM cars and some unpainted Porsche 911 GT3s. The only SCX Compact cars I’m keeping are a pair of ‘Cudas.

Now for the second part of the SCX stuff…

   

This is a MotoGP set with the 1:24 scale Compact bikes, which are a lot of fun. They don’t work well on Carrera Go!!! track, needing the extra grip of the rough SCX Compact surface. The track in the set is moderately tarnished (no rust) and three pieces have on lug missing, one straight has two missing at one end (the track is still perfectly useable). The set is incomplete: one full straights and one 1/3 third straight are missing. The contents still make a circuit, but the layout on the box can be replicated using the extra packet of straight track…

   

Let me know if you want that. The two bikes work. The Repsol Honda is a replacement (from Staffs Slot cars) as the original was faulty (I can include that for spares). The Rossi Yamaha is original. Power supply and hand throttles are used. 

Price: £35 + postage at cost.

Now for some cars…

   

The packet is still sealed and the loose cars have very light use, if any. Price: £30 for all four + postage at cost.

   

These four Porsches are unused. They were designed for a 3-car system and the internal circuit boards and capacitor must be removed to work on standard Compact track - rewiring direct from pick-ups to motor makes them a standard analogue car. 1:43 decals are widely available, I’ll include a sheet of Pattos decals with the four cars. Price: £20 for all four + postage at cost.

I will combine all the SCX Compact items (NASCAR, DTM, MotoGP + Porsches + extras) for £200 + postage at cost (around £10 for a courier in the UK).
