Ok, I stand corrected, Classic Nascar lets go! Ha! Not so fast, Jerry... It was up recently as a replacement class for DTMs and no one voted for it... It is hard to vote for all the classes that I want to run when I was only allowed to vote for one. So I only will choose the class that others may have a car for. I have 20/30 "NASCAR" cars, so I would be able to pick a car for any future "Stock Car" class. I have cars from the 50's, 60's, 70's, 80's, as well as the more modern "NASCAR" classes. Most of these cars are not available new any longer, except for the Carrera cars. SCX and Scalextric used to make some cars over ten years ago. Monogram had some cars that had nice bodies, but the running gear was unique. To find a car now would cost a small fortune. The Richard Petty 67 Plymouth is usually listed for $299.00!!! Jim W |

Dennis,
If you look at pictures of my tracks, you will normally see a good selection of most of the NASCAR cars on the track. Right now, I have the 60's and 70's cars in one spot and the 80's in another spot on the track. The Modern, 90's and 20's are also on the track. Don't forget I have the 57 Chevy's sitting in the garage, waiting for another IROC race. Most of the NASCAR cars I have are Box Stock plus. I do have a 63 Ford that is one of my fastest cars, so I am ready for all types of classes. I do have 3D printed chassis for some of the 60's cars also.

Dennis,
I am in the process of collecting track (use any that would be available) to build a 4 lane Carerra Banked Oval for a table 6' x 12'. I have two full 2/30 and one full 3/30 sections from Jim, but need another 3/30 and 24 sections of straight track to do the build out. So, if anyone has some track laying around, I could borrow, we could get this up and running pretty quick. I am going to buy a light bridge and sensor cable so that I can move Trackmate over from the road track. I would like to have all the stuff to give it a try Mid January, so if you have any track I can use let me know.
Once we get it set up and running, I will look at maybe running every four or six weeks and then take it down and store. We had the talk at my race with interest of maybe Legend Cars, 80's and 60's NASCAR and maybe even IRL cars.
Use this thread for continued Conversation.

I used most of my track for my recent reconfiguration of my track. There may be a few odds and ends. Not sure until I look. I am sure I do not have any straights. Rodney, who has not been around for a while had a Carerra track but I do not know how to contact him.

Marc all I have are 2/30s and 1/60s. Dennis, Thanks for looking. I purchased the last 3/30 Banked turn and the 24 straights from Electric Dreams over the weekend. I may need some borders or barriers, but we will see after I get this set up. Thanks Mark W |
