Hi Guy's

I have loads of Scaley Classic that I've aquired over a couple of years, I wanna progress on to Digital and know that I need Scaley Sport in order to do this. I also know that you can connect Sport to Classic with the convertor piece.

My initial question is that if I have Sport connected to Classic can I add Digital into the mix and it work?

My next question is what is the best deal/pack/kit to get me going?

Cheers

Mark

Yes you can mix digital, sport & classic track with the right converters.

There is lots of track on ebay or in the slotforum swapshop.

I have lots of classic/sport converters old & new available if you want some.

Hi Mark,
No problem mixing track together but you will need quite a lot of converters depending on your layout. The biggest problems are the different slot depths of the track. Classic is much shallower than sport/digital track and the deeper blades bottoming out in the shallow slots.

Two ways of doing it which depends on how short your arms are or how deep your pockets are

....... as with everything. The best option is to get a C7042 and gradually replace track pieces as you go. Next best is to pick up a cheaper and less desirable C7030 which is the older style power base.

It would be worth your while looking up a local club or getting along to the big bash at Gaydon in May where you can try all sorts of stuff out and talk to the experts in all manner of things connected with slot cars.

All the best - Greg

Instead of C7030 what about C7024?

Your help has been great.

what is a c7024 I dont think there is such a beast, I believe you mean the c7042 6 car APB

 

[Slotsofsparetime]

No, its deffo 7024!

It may not be the item that require but the item description says SCALEXTRIC Digital 4 Car Powerbase and C7024 P9300.

Unless the 4 car base is super cheap and comes with a psu then I would not bother

and save your cash towards a 6 car base

Mark .....the 4 car PB is not entirely useful, renaming it as a 2.3 car powerbase would better describe it. If you fancy one, PM me and I'll send you one for free.
