Nice!
Love those old TYCO stockers!

They have the original foam tires. I put some RC tire dressing on them and they came back fine. It was a friends set from when he was a kid. He got tired of moving it around his basement. It's all there even the original box.

Hard to beat Classic TYCO.Many of use started out with these cool ol' sets!

VERY cool! Love that era of stock car racing! :D

WOW like those old Tyco's :text-goodpost:
I cut my teeth on HO.Cars :scared-eek: :scared-eek:
If you can believe my friends, :violin: they say there to darn fast to drive. :laughing-rolling:
:angry-tappingfoot: You better get some guard rails up around those corners, :auto-driving: :auto-checkeredflag: :auto-driving:
HO Cars don't take kindly for the long drop to the hard floor. :violence-smack:

Those two TYCO cars look to be pretty clean, and are worth a few bucks, especially as a pair. Be careful with the R/C tire dressing on the plastic track. Some of them will have a chemical reaction and start making a mess in spots, and you definitely don't want it to get into the motor. A pair of slip on type silicone tires will last forever, and you'll have no worries about your track surface. Yeah, get some T-Jets... original Aurora ones if you can. If you decide to make a larger or multi lane HO circuit, I would save your original TYCO stuff and buy one of the new AFX sets. Even if you don't want the newer Mega-G+ cars (they do run VERY smooth), you can always sell them and recoup a large part of your investment. The AFX track system has the most options available for different track sections and accessories, a good switchable 8/12/22 volt power supply, and some nice 120 ohm controllers to tame those T-Jets when running on the full 22 volts.

Whatever you decide to do, welcome back to the HO racing world, and... be sure to have FUN! -- Ernie :>)

*** I see in the background you've still got the original Richard Petty Racing box from the set. Cool! -- E :>)
