Just seen Salsa-King's Burns WRC2001 Scalextric model, and Santa wasn't as kind to me. I want one and I want one now...... :D :D

i can't find any more round here in Nottm yet :( i want car No.6!!!
there was a limited edition Burns car as well think only 5000 produced. :(


Phil

There are two cars 1. Burns - tarmac wheels, 2. Solberg - loose surface wheels. There will be new versions as soon as the 2002 WRC starts. My local toy shop (Hurricane Models, Tel No 01992 447346) has them in stock, I'm sure they will post it to you, they are open in the morning

My local Toys-r-us had loads just before xmas

kewl :cool: I didn't know you could get the new cars due to being given a bit of misinformation by my local scalextric stockist. I can feel a couple of new additions to the new set coming on already, Scalextric is strangely addictive isn't it? :D

Sal

Thanks everyone. Got one from C&B Models in Derby this morning.

Now where did I put that Scalextric set.

Cheers

Kev S

i get my stuff from modern models in camberly- they do mail order, find them by searching lycos or similar- the stuff is CHEAP compared to RRP

Tiggs

ps- new scoobs have huge magnets which means its daft to race against other scalextrics cars so buy 2 of them.

Nice Pair Phil (Ooh Err)...:D :D

I bought a No 4 McRae 2001 Focus WRC from G Dee's yesterday for £21. Goes nice with the Burns 2001 Impreza WRC.

PS: I managed to get one of the 5000 limited edition Burns Cars, which was a bonus. Didn't even realise at the time there was one. It's the same car but with Burns sigature one the plinth and a special box with a piccy of RB himself.

Cheers

Matt
Sorry for the delay in replying.
I got mine from Jennings Models 244/248 Hertford Road Enfield EN3 5BL. Tel 020 8804 1767 (Ponders End area)

All the best
Pete

Do you throw darts at it?

Kev
did you get the L/Edition from G D's in Nottm?? when?????? thought they had sold all there Impreza cars except the Senna ones! when i look last week to get the No.6 car! :(


Phil

I have just bought the 2001 Burns/Reid car made by SCX which has 4 wheel drive and a double row of track contacts.

SCX cars are made in Spain in the old Scalextric factory, when Scalextric moved their manufacturing to Margate under Hornby ownership, Matchbox bought their factory in Spain and then got taken over by Mattel who are now making slot cars under the SCX name.

On the present Scalextric tracks these cars do not run as fast due to the lack of enough power available from the transformer as these cars have more powerful motors but Scalextric are apparently bringing out a new better grip track surface and higher power transformers in the next few weeks,so these SCX models will then really shift.

All the best

Andy.

Phil,

Bought my Burns limtied edition from C&B Models in Derby. I think this was their last one.

Kev S

I got mine in Swindon a while back...

...now all I need is a Scalextric set! :D

Andy,

I get confused over all the other slot car models, (Ninco, Fly, SCX etc.), therefore so far I've stuck to Scalextric.

This new Scalextric track sounds interesting though.

Kev S

If you guys need to get hold of one, there's a shop called Serious Fun in Stony Stratford nr Milton Keynes that had loads in stock.
