Just a note for everyone, while many businesses are shut down across the country, my shop is located approximately 20-25 ft. from my house. It is also only me and my wife helping me pack, make and ship items. Shipping can be done right from my mailbox if needed. So, unless the US Post Office closes down, RRR will be packing and taking orders as usual. Stay safe and take care everyone. Phil
Be advised, because of all of this CVD19 crap,
the PO is way behind, with less manpower and fewer planes flying,
which means longer than usual delivery times.
We have entered 'SHIP-AGGEDDON!!!'
We are here and shipping as normal, but deliveries are now
taking longer to receive, so
Please be patient to receive your order.

Road Race Replicas only shut down for 1 week during travel time out here
and was up selling, making parts and shipping the very next week.
All cabinets, inventory, shelves were simply wrapped in palette wrap (like large Saran-wrap)
and loaded onto the truck. After unloading, we simply
cut the wrapping and were ready to go again.
We rented in Coupeville for 4 months as a temporary location until
we moved to our NEW permanent home in Poulsbo WA.

Wheel Wells - Make sure all wheel wells are not 'cut' or slightly shaved.
My feelings on wheel well or alterations is simple. If a car is hacked and gouged to make room for larger tires, it should be considered a 'Runner' for racing. Sometimes a nicely done 'rounding' of a wheel well is fine as a 'Space Filler' for a collector, especially on a rare car.
The 'Light Blue' Mongoose above is a rare car and has slightly shaved rear wheel wells. It looks great on a shelf until an upgrade can be found. The White Vib Mercedes is 'hacked' and would be considered a a nice 'Runner'.
Screw Posts (T-Jets) - The most common issue affecting plastic slot cars is usually with the screw post. It is getting very hard to find a car withOUT any screw post cracks. The age and brittleness of the plastic affects the posts. Even the colors that Aurora produced cars in have different affects. Tan colored cars are the most brittle and usually have the worst issues. Look for cracks or splits in both screw posts. You should always take a car apart at a show to check. Bring a small screw driver with you to all shows.

The turquoise body pictured above shows a typical example of a 'CRACK' in a screw post that holds the screw firm. This is a common occurence and is fine with most collectors.
The yellow car above is a typical example of a 'SPLIT' in a screw post. I consider deeper, wider 'splits' to be further along damage wise than a 'crack'.

Chrome - Make sure the bumpers are 'factory' melted in. Examples below. If the melt marks look too big or not in the correct place, the bumpers have probably been replaced. Sometimes this is ok if the replacement is done properly and neatly with original factory parts. It is up to you to decide what is acceptable in your collection. I personally do not like reproduction parts on any of my cars.
