  • A New Line of Limited Edition Resin Cars

    Welcome to Ghost Trax a new line of Resin Slot Car kits. This is the first model offered in their range.



    Unloading from the Transporter box a finished version of their Mazzari Fantasy Can Am Car.

    The kit is beautiful, here shown build, but it comes kit form for you to create your own masterpiece.



    Here is a little more about the Mazzari and Ghost Trax plans for 2013.

    Limited edition to (strictly) 150 ex. Every owner is registered with model number so it'll limit the ability to have a copy for second hand owners in future.
    High tech resin
    All parts are SLOT-IT
    Big power (what do you think of it) and high handling performance
    Lots of details (photos etched parts...)
    Unique exclusive design
    Designed and Hand made in France
    Available in Kit and soon (few days) in RTR model.
    150 euros for Kit
    220 euros for RTR
    Now shipping worldwide, including USA, Canada... from www.ghost-trax.com

    Important information about the brand :

    GHOST TRAX will make only exclusive products with high quality and value
    2 range of modular wood trax (1/43, very good for HO and Rally 1/32)
    The Race 1/32 range will be soon released
    A range of track accessories 1/32 : concrete wall (fences and pit lane glass protection will be released next month), road separators and more to come
    1/32 Figurines will be released next month (A beautiful set of grid girls)
    A revolutionary new 1/32 car : the famous BRABHAM BT46 "fan car" is about to be released.

    About MAZZARI :

    It's a WIP comic "saga" project I'm making at this moment. It'll be edited at the second part of 2013.
    It's all about an imaginary Italian family of car constructors.
    The first album is 1974 CanAm
    The website is www.mazzari-racing.com (it's not all translated at this moment, but it will be in future) with all information about the project
    There will be others MAZZARI slot cars made by GHOST TRAX (the second will be released in June)

    Here is a first edition of the Mazzari, yes it is stunning.



    I am looking forward to this series of cars, some are planned to be actual Can Am cars and some as mentioned above part of this fantasy series, personally I love the idea of this. Now I need to translate the Story Book that comes with this beautiful Slot Car.

                      ALan any chance you'll be giving us a review of that car, the chassis looks to be all slot.it and the parts first rate, also the resin body looks fairly thin/light. Would be really interested to get a review of the car and how it runs,etc. As far as the RTR it looks amazing and the quality and detail amazing. Original idea on the fictional, family run factory storyline and it sounds really interesting.
                      Good of you to highlight this venture, there's some nice stuff coming from France!

                        Time permitting I will be testing the Ghost Trax car.

                        I will test the Ghost Trax car as soon as I can. I do need to remind everyone this car features Ghost Trax own detailed Resin Chassis so I will not try to compare directly with a plastic chassis'd car.
                        These cars are beautifully built and finished, or you can by the kit and build to your own level of detail.

                        With Slot.it parts I expect the car to be a good running fun car but would not in fairness expect it to compare directly will a Slot.it Alfa for example. However I will test as a benchmark against that car, but I am looking forward to running a series of these cars together. I believe that will be their strength, nor a head to head with Slot.it.

                        More as soon as I can.

                          Thanks Alan being resin I understand how they might not compare to slot.it but definately racer or simply as you mentioned in their own class and I would just be curious to know how they rate, even on their own as I am interested in getting the kit anyways purely on design and finish/quality and something very unique to build. Your opinion would go a long way to pushing me over the fence!!
                          LOL.

                            Will get into the detail on this car soon.

                            I will get some lap time, and more images of the running gear soon. The finished model is very well done, with metal foil chassis details one of the cool finishing touches.
