We are selling the following slot car tracks:
 
1.  Road race course. I was told it was a Kingman 155' track. It was resurfaced in July of last year. It has new paint on the outside rails and new plexiglass on certain turns. It has a newer timing system (purchased within the last three years). It includes track, timing system, and computer.  It also comes with rental controllers, rental cars, and an extra television for a secondary monitor. It measures 18-1/2' x 44-1/2'. We also have miscellaneous flexi and wing car parts to go with it. We are asking $4,000, but are willing to negotiate price.

2.  Oval track. It was also resurfaced last July. It also has new paint outside. It comes with timing system (DOS-based), computer, controllers, an extra television used as a second monitor, and rental cars with the hard rental bodies. It measures 11' x 26-1/2'. We also have an unfinished flat track that we would be willing to throw in for free!  No timing system or computer for that one.  We were in the process of building that one, but things just didn't work out for us to be able to finish it. It measures 10' x 25'. Buyer also gets assorted Womp-Womp parts and Indy car parts. We are asking $2,500, but are willing to negotiate.

3.  Drag strip. It is a full 1/24 scale drag strip complete with shutdown lanes and a custom catch bag at the end. It was resurfaced last July. It has newer timing system (purchased within the last three years), computer, screen attached to drag strip starting line and secondary screen with computer, controllers, Christmas tree, and the buyer also gets three rental drag cars and assorted parts. At full length it measures 1-1/2' x 78'. This measurement includes full shutdown lanes. We are asking $4,000, but again, we are willing to negotiate price. Banners on side wall of drag strip do NOT accompany the track.

All are buyer pick-up only. We do not want to take the risk of shipping. They are assembled currently, but as we closed the business July 22, we have 30 days to vacate our location, tracks will be disassembled and placed in storage. We are located in Amarillo, Texas, humidity is not an issue here!
 
Anyone wanting to have more information can reach me at (806) 676-9205. We would love to see these go to someone that can enjoy them.
 
Thanks,
 
Zenda Ratliff
Amarillo Slot Car Raceway

The oval and road course were in Wylie, TX for a while. I hope they go to a good home.

They look like the same ones that were also in Pampa, TX for awhile.

That Kingleman would be an excellent primary track for a commercial raceway. One of the better designs ever.

I love racing on the Kingleman at BPR!! We used to have a lot of Retro racing on it!! The locals here though are addicted to the King!!


She's real fine, my 409!!!

Not all of us. I like the BPR flat track. Haven't run on the King in over a year and a half.

Seems like no one wants to race on the little track in the back.
