Secrets of Slot Car Racing #16 - $150 Used Tyco HO Slot Car Track

I purchased this as an example of what to look for when buying a used track to save some expenses. I will be reselling this.

I was a TCR kid. My brother and I had over 1000 feet of track and over 25 cars. Two years and a lot of yard sales and christmas and birthday gifts. We had a great race track. We would spend hours and a lot of missed dinner racing. LOL

the rail road crossing are going for between 50-75 dollars apiece on ebay .I sold 4 a couple years ago for 140 .I've been watching your videos from the start of the series. Got my first set for Christmas of 1972 been enjoying the hobby every scene keep up the good work on the videos

[@tommydolce74]

For my style of driving. I like tyco track.

[@marksslotcargarage]

Wow, probably worth triple the $150 you paid, great find!

[@nitromancer6460]

Well I got lucky with the four railroad crossings (they are on eBay right now), I didn’t know about them or that they have some value. And three controllers worked. What’s cool is I got my “investment” back and the track that looked in good condition went to a returnee to the hobby. So we’ll have him up and running soon.

[@marksslotcargarage]

That's awesome! Good return on your investment and you are helping someone get back into the hobby. Sounds like a win win to me.

[@nitromancer6460]

And looks like I made a new best friend too

[@blueovalracing1582]

That was a terrific deal

[@nitromancer6460]

@blueovalracing1582 It turned out better than I expected. The railroad crossing were much more desirable than I thought.

[@dragonfyirewoodandlaserworks]

how much you want for those rr crossings?

[@dragonfyirewoodandlaserworks]

and the RR stuff.

[@nitromancer6460]

I think there’s over a dozen 36” rail road tracks so probably about $90 with postage. Try contacting me thru this Craigslist ad: detroit.craigslist.org/okl/tag/d/pontiac-huge-tyco-afx-ho-slot-car-race/7703523029.html
