DIY rally loopsĪlthough Scalextric don’t currently make a rally loop, they are easy to make.
You’ll also need a pack of C8222 converters to connect modern Scalextric Sport track to these older ‘classic’ pieces. Expect to pay premium prices (we’re talking three figures!) to pick up any of these old loops in usable condition. A more recent Spanish Scalextric / SCX version (two loops bundled in the ‘Chrono Rally Pack’) is much sought after and Ninco also produced rally loops for their track system. A bona fide PT/73 in good condition is worth a lot of money these days – and you really need two loops to run through a stage more than once. Each PT/73 set included one ‘Y’ piece to split the track into single lanes, plus three single lane curve pieces. What we think of now as ‘Rally Loops’ first appeared in the 1965 Scalextric catalogue as ‘Hillclimb and Dragster Turns’.
