NSCC - National Scalextric Collectors Club 30 enthusiasts formed the NSCC in 1981 to bring together those people who collected Scalextric cars. The club has since grown to over 1000 members worldwide and includes all makes of slot cars, old and new. The club produces a monthly Journal with articles on various topics such as the background to individual models, members’ collections and layouts, interesting discoveries and ways of improving the performance and reliability of the cars. As well as products from Scalextric, models from SCX, Ninco, Fly Car, Carrera and many others are featured.

The Journal also offers the opportunity for members to advertise models for sale or swap and place wanted adverts for those hard to find cars and spares that they require. Not only can you buy and sell through the Journal, but there are also a number of Swapmeets organised every year. As well as being an opportunity to buy and sell, these are great social occasions where you can meet fellow enthusiasts and discuss all things 'Scalextric'. From time to time, the NSCC commissions limited edition slot-cars, which are only available to current members. Various other events are also organised, the most popular being a joint venture with Hornby Hobbies which gives members the chance to meet and question the top management and design staff of Scalextric. The NSCC also produces a list of clubs, which is regularly updated. Race meetings are organised by various clubs around the country and these are reported in the Journal giving you the chance to use your cars for the purpose they were intended, and to have some fun at the same time. The owner of this web store is a member of the NSCC and is currently the club's webmaster. If you would like to find out more about the club and to join, visit the web site, where you can also get details of slot car fairs and open Scalextric meetings you can go along to.

Planet Rock Finally, any digital slot car or on-line race will be enhanced by a soundtrack of digital classic rock music. Martin is a member of the Planet Rock "Road Crew", supporting this UK-based DAB digital radio station which can also be found on Sky, Freesat and at planetrock.com. The station was under threat of closure by bean-counters in early 2008 but action by listeners and a station takeover by rock greats including Fish and Ian Anderson saved it. Other rock greats such as Rick Wakeman and Alice Cooper present shows on it, as does legendary DJ Nicky Horne. So if you like Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, Yes, Emerson Lake and Palmer, Neil Young, Genesis, Thin Lizzy, AC/DC, Whitesnake, Steely Dan, Def Leppard, Eric Clapton, Jethro Tull, Budgie (and many many more) as well as bang-up-to-date releases from rockers such as The Answer and Joe Bonamassa, Planet Rock is the station you should be listening to. You will find your lap times improve immeasurably! If you would like to show your support for the station, if you place an order with us, add a Planet Rock sticker to your shopping cart and we will send you one in your parcel (strictly one per customer though).
