Quick question, I broke the chassis on my SCX Pro Nascar and I was wondering if there was a replacement available? I can't find anything anywhere..

[Robert Livingston]

SCX has never sold those parts separately, as far as I know. The world is awash in surplus SCX motors (well, my world is, anyway). I've heard that some guys have cut down Gold Dust brushes successfully. Commutator truing and advancing seems effective with SCX motors. Transplanting 16D armatures will get you higher RPM than the donor 16D, due to the weaker SCX magnets (I know that from my own experiments), even with stock brushes and no other work.

Does SCX sell replacement motor brushes and motor brush springs?

They look to be replaceable, like those on a 16 D motor, but I have not seen such listed by any vendor or the SCX web site.

Am I looking the wrong place?

This was a good thread. Even though it was intended to sell SCX Pro parts, there was useful information.

The abrupt rudeness of the termination of this thread seems totally unwarranted. One would believe whoever replaced Dave K. would have stepped in to continue. He must be aware of these forums! Is SCX going to pull another BWA trick out of the hat?

How many brand names of slot cars are "orphaned", now? If they continue to run, it's largely because of BNova and Slot.it.

guys random question but will scx make more pro cars like a corvette c6 r or a citreon c4 wrc one???

[articsilber323]

anyone know why the plastic white brake does not fit the nascar pro?

[Robert Livingston]

Guys, Dave K is working for Carrera now. I don't know if there is an SCX employee reading this site any longer. Maybe Chuck Ehredt?

when will we be able to purchase scx pro nascar chassis's, that would be great

Slick tyres for the GT Audi R8 Pro

Dear Dave

The self same pdf Pro pamphlet quotes the slick tyre diameter for the GTAudi as 20mm on a 17mm rim. Might this available shortly as a new 20mm slick tyre option, with a product code? I got very excited as the staple diet for our sidewinder ali rim cars on magna braid wood track has always been the old SCX 20mm tyres that went out of production and existing stocks have pretty much dried up - so I am hoping / praying this is not a typo or stretched 19mm slick tyre. My pdf to jpeg double size conversion is poor but the 20mm diameter by 9mm width is clear enough.



Thanks and regards
Dave

From the SCX press release about these parts. They have been available for some time now. They're excellent quality parts. The gears are perfect replacements for stock SCX gears (if you want to replace the stock parts that is) or for any of your hopping up of any other slot cars.


They're the parts used on the Pro Audi and the Pro Rally car:

I just wanna remark, that was a great thing that Dave Kennedy just did there, contributing those prizes for the Down Under Proxy Race. He's a mate of mine, and he done good.

Hi I just received some scx cars as prizes for winning the podded section in the dupr and also for highest placed rookie.So a big thank-you to SCX and to Dave Kennedy for being active in sponsoring events for us enthusiasts. My question is is it possible to fit an scx pro guide into a standard chassis? Or do they only fit pro cars? The improved quality of the new scx cars compared to the ones i see some of the club guys running that are a few years old is testament to a brand re inventing itself so congratulations. the club peugeot is an especially nice bit of kit.

Nascar Pro Race parts????

Looking to buy 6 lexan interiors and a couple chassis. Dave Kennedy or any sponsor/dealers help me out. I know that these parts are "enroute" but can I do a pre-order??

Love that RX-4H motor and the Porsche. No-mag nervana. It slides and recovers well with good bottom end grunt for the twisty parts. I have a back-up MIB standing by.

Only one width available for the 16 mm and the 17 mm SCX PRO wheels.

Best regards,
Brian
