NEWS: Scaleauto 'Home Series' Porsche 935


Scaleauto 'Home Series' announced
SC-9101, SC-9102 Porsche 935

So we've been sent some great photos of the just released Scaleauto 'Home Series' of slot cars.  Detail is still a little thin but what is clear is that this new range of Scaleauto slot cars is aimed squarely at the home racer.  What's exciting about that is that you don't have to be a pro to get the most out of these slots, I'd also wager that they would be a great choice to get the kids into this great hobby.

Detail levels look very high which is something I really wasn't expecting when I first found out about this new series for home racing.  Motors come standard in side-winder configuration, a old favourite of mine.  No news on gear ratios but pennies to pounds it will be 9 pinion with a 27 crown.  I'm really looking forward to testing a few of these puppies on the home track! :)

This information on the new series from Scaleauto: 'The new Scaleauto Home Series fulfills the needs for the beginner level and easy-gaming slot car enthusiasts.

Detailed 'Ready-To-Run' slot racing cars with sidewinder position motor and magnet.

Compatible with all types of analog slot tracks. Upgradeable with performance spare parts in axles, AL-hubs, tyres, guides and braids.

Chassis motor mount is not interchangeable. There is no 'digital direct' conversion kit available.'

NEWS: Scaleauto 'Home Series' announced


Scaleauto 'Home Series' announced

Ok I don't usually like to do the whole 'coming soon to a slot shop near you' news release but this news is pretty interesting.  We've been given exclusive access to some very interesting information from a slotter in Barcelona, that Scaleauto is preparing a special announcement very soon (we are told in the next 24hrs) regarding an entirely new series of slot cars built specifically for home racing.

I haven't been able to find out anymore at this stage but did manage to get my hands on the new logo for the series.  I can only speculate that this new series will include cars with a simpler chassis design, (perhaps no floating motor pod and less adjustments), may include more affordable parts such as non-alloy wheels, gears etc. and perhaps the introduction of less powerful motors, making the range more affordable and better suited to smaller home racing layouts.

As soon as I find out more (and have some photos), I'll be sure to publish here.  In the meantime, if you want to find out more about Scaleauto slot cars here on ManicSlots, be our guest and CLICK HERE
