Ninco Home Racing Sets

Ninco scale racing products are made in Spain where the hobby is very popular, especially for the WRC Rally enthusiasts.  Ninco products are very well made and they use a flexible vinyl material similar to Scalextric so the track is somewhat flexible.  This feature prevents breakage and permits some flex in the turns if you choose to create a gentle banked curve.  Ninco track is a full inch wider than Scalextric, but not as wide as Carrera track.   We stock the most popular Ninco race sets, offering you a variety of choices to match your budget.  Ninco’s largest set, the DTM touring car set includes 30 feet of track.  This set is also the greatest value.  Check out the details of all the Ninco race sets we stock below.

Ninco Race Sets do allow you to run all the common brands of slot cars like Fly, Scalextric, SCX, Vanquish, Slot-it, MRRC, and Carrera and even some old vintage stuff.  Ninco uses a 14.8 volt wall transformer common to the other popular brands.  You may also add a second power supply to any Ninco track with the purchase of another transformer and a dual power track.  Ninco also offers electronic timing accessories as well as upgraded controllers and even an adapter track to connect to Scalextric/SCX track in case you are already committed to either of those.  Sport Craft stocks all Ninco track pieces and accessories and our knowledgeable sales staff can assist you with your questions.   Please scroll down to learn more about the fine Ninco products we offer.

The History of Scalextric Slot Cars

It has to be said that Scalextric are the forefathers of the slot car racing hobby. Since 1952, they have been creating a range of high quality Slot Cars (initially clock work) which were originally sold as toys, but have now become excellent examples of 1/32 scale model engineering.

Scalextric now have a truely global appeal, with the latest models appealing to fans of all motor racing genres, and now with the forthcoming Scalextric Moto GP motor bikes, due in 2004, Scalextric are destined to take Slot Car Racing to new heights.
