NEW AFX FORD GT40 RELEASES FROM RACEMASTERS - NOW IN STOCK!

From Racemasters comes four replicas of the Ford that beat Ferrari at LeMans in the 1960’s; the GT40 Mk. II. These new GT40’s are the latest releases in the AFX Collector Series of SRT cars. Ford took on Ferrari in the mid-60’s with the ultimate goal being a win at the 24 Hours of LeMans. After a couple years spent with teething problems, Ford put it all together to take it’s maiden victory at the Sarthe circuit in 1966 (the first of four straight). Three of the new GT40’s shown here (#8796 - 8797 - 8798) took the top three spots that year while the fourth car was Dan Gurney’s mount (red #3). Each of these new GT40’s sells for $22.95 and rides on an SRT chassis.
SPECIAL OFFER: if you’d like to own all four of these beautiful cars (and who wouldn’t) you can purchase the complete set of four from us for $80. Be sure and specify you want the special 4-car price when placing your order.

 

THE AFX DUAL POWER PACK TERMINAL TRACK IS BACK
Ever since Scale Auto introduced the AFX Dual Power Pack Terminal Track to the H.O. world back in the 1990’s, we’ve been trying to get that track section made again. Well, it’s finally happened and we’re happy to announce this valuable piece of AFX track is now, once again, available from Scale Auto. In case you’re not familiar with this piece of track, it’s a standard Tomy AFX 15” Terminal track but with an extra plug so you can hook up one power pack per lane. As anyone involved in this hobby knows, the standard wall pack supplied in a race set typically provides just enough power to run one car properly. Now, with the ability to hook up one power pack per lane, it eliminates any power problems you may have on your layout. Part number 8998, we sell the AFX Dual Power Pack Terminal Track for $10.95.

 

NEW AFX 18” RADIUS CURVE TRACK
The long anticipated AFX 18” radius curve track has finally arrived and we have lots of them in stock ready for immediate shipment. AFX part number 8997, this 1/8th curve track section fits outside their 15” curve which gives you even more possibilities when designing an AFX track layout. The 18” curve is sold by the pair for $8.95 a pair.

 

NEW AFX LONG BEACH GRAND PRIX RACE SET
Along with updating their 4-Way Split, Giant, and Big Block Battlers race sets, AFX has released a brand new, officially licensed, Long Beach Grand Prix race set. This set comes with track to duplicate the race circuit that runs through the streets of Long Beach in Southern California. The real track has seen many major racing sanctioning bodies run races there including Formula 1, CART, F5000, Champ Car, and many others. This set comes with enough track to complete a 50-foot two-lane Long Beach replica in a 16 x 9 foot space. As a special bonus, there’s seven other race tracks you can make with this set including a variety of other layouts Champ Cars race on. This set includes licensed replicas of the #1 Sebastien Bourdais and #3 Paul Tracy Champ Cars. Both bodies come on AFX Super G-Plus chassis. Part number 9949, we’re selling this set for $147.00.

 

ALL NEW AFX FOUR-WAY SPLIT RACE SET
Racemasters has re-released an updated version of their “other” 4-lane race set called Four Way Split. To start with, there’s four new LeMans cars that come in the set. These include a Sauber Mercedes C9, an AEG Mercedes C9, a Shell Porsche 962, and a blue/white Minolta Toyota 89CV. All four LeMans bodied cars comes on an AFX Super G-Plus chassis. This is a four-lane race set which includes 36 feet of track to make up a four-lane road course, four controllers, two power packs, built into the track lap counters, and snap-out cardboard Grandstand and Pit Buildings. We’ve got the 4-Way Split in stock at $137.50, making it one of the best set values available today.

 

TRACK CLIPS NOW AVAILABLE FOR AFX TRACK
Here’s a really nice track accessory if your entry-level track of choice is AFX (what else is there?) These are small clips that attach to the underside of AFX track where the sections meet. When these track clips are used, your track absolutely will not come apart. If you’re making more of a permanent layout but don’t want to nail the track down, these track clips provide the perfect alternative. Sold in sets of 20 clips for $15.00. Ask for AFX part #9588.
