Slot Car Track

[BenL]

First they came out with a slot car track hiding under a Porsche 917 body, now they have a track hiding under a GT40 body.

This 1969 Ford GT40 Race Car Has a Secret Slot Car Track Inside

Press a button and this GT40's body lifts open, revealing a 1:32-scale Le Mans replica slot car track with two remote controls.

The Porsche 917 track sold on BAT for $200K.

This is just a guess but being they are just down the road a bit from RCR, perhaps that is who supplies the bodies.
Just a thought.

The new owner of Active Power Cars or the Ardern GT40, which is now GT Engineering is building this Slot Car GT40's now too.

I believe they did, I think there was a thread a bunch of years ago in this form about it.

Thread 'Latest Hammacher Schlemmer catalog'

Nov 28, 2012

Just got the Xmas Hammacher Schlemmer Catalog, and look what's on the front cover. I saw this under construction during my RCR shop tour back in August. It was a collaboration between Fran and a nearby high end slot car track builder. The RCR Porsche 917 body tilts to expose a highly detailed functional slot car track. Check it out at -> Hammacher Schlemmer
