A Slot Car Raceway has existed in these premises since the mid to late sixties. We are located in James Lane Waitara NSW. We believe the original business was established by a Kevin Thurston who built an 8 lane banked track and a smaller, but decidedly more challenging 10 lane flat track. Both tracks were coin operated and 15 minutes cost 20 cents.
Today the business maintains a remarkable similarity in the sense that it offers two 8 Lane Garry Johnson built tracks, one is a 182 foot Johnson Hill Climb and the other a 108 Foot Johnson Road course. Both tracks are electronically controlled and feature lap counters and timers in hire mode. These tracks are to be supplemented shortly by a new Ninco 1/32 scale Digital Raceway.
Inside you will find a well stock shop catering for 1/24, 1/32 and HO enthusiasts. We endeavor to carry the latest 1/24 speed secret from manufacturers such as Koford Engineering, Alpha, Cahoza, and Slick7, and are continually expanding our range of 1/32 Cars and sets from the likes of Ninco, Scalextric, Fly, SCX and Revell.
We maintain a comprehensive racing program catering for standard 1/32 cars right up to the lightning fast 1/24 G7 Wingcars and a week doesn’t go by without a birthday party or a community group on the 110 foot track. So if you have children that are seven and looking for a birthday party with a difference, or if your nearing 70 but raced slots when you were a kid and would love to have a go again you are welcome at Hornsby Slot Cars.
