Slot car spares, motors etc

[Duke Thrust]

Hello all,

I'm looking to build a decent slot car from and old Scalextric Rover SD1. I've bought motors from stands a toy fairs before, can anyone suggest a good on-line retailer?

I'd also be interested to hear thoughts on which motor to go for as well as tyres. In a nutshell I'm hoping to hand out a large scale beating to mate who's got some nice cars and a decent track.

Cheers

Regarding motors go for an NSR Shark 20k or 22.4k or a Slot.it 21500. What type of track are you racing on, plastic or wood and I'll let you know what tyres to go for.

Plastic, normal Scalextric stuff.

Thanks for your help :O)

Thanks, is that the same compound front to rear?
