We need to clarify the situation as best we can on the tariff rules enforced right now. We can continue to import from Europe products manufactured there with a 10% tariff charge. However goods shipped from Europe but manufactured in China right now have 145% tariff, so we are holding off on those goods. There may be some changes in manufacturing to help keep prices reasonable however we can not continue with our current pricing for long. Even 10% tariff will impact retail pricing. On the last 3 imports from RevoSlot in China we were charged 20% tariff and absorbed that in house. We can not continue to do that going forward. But hope the situation changes on the tariff policy soon 145% is not viable unless we change our business model.

So goods from Scaleauto, Revoslot and many others will be impacted, short term we have held off on imports but we will have to make a decision soon to stay in business.

We do have good stock on current releases as we built up inventory to help avoid running out due to the current situation, this includes spare parts for most brands we support. 

Spring is in the air, we are back from the our travels to Italy and England. We attended the BRM Youngtimers Trophy Event April 5th/6th. After the second round was run last weekend we finished 10th and qualified for the September Final. We will be out of the Store till April 17th, then catching up with special orders. The shipping department will still be processing orders during that time.

https://132slotcar.us/g-and-s-tire-grinder.

We are working on orders daily, and back to processing new orders within 3 working days!!!  

The Shipping Department is processing orders as quickly as possible. 

 

You can call us at 253-255-1807 or email scaleracing1@gmail.com. Due to the big increase in pre ordering we are asking for all to please consider allowing us to capture card details on Authorize.net. This is a Visa owned Company and totally secure. No data is held on our Site. If this is done we can process orders as soon as they land avoiding delays in Customers getting their cars. You can still do "Request for Quote" but all orders with confirmed payment allowed will be processed first. This change is needed as we are landing over 200 pre orders and the delay in shipping while contacting everyone for payment is backing us up and further delaying shipping your orders out. 

Policars sets are sold out right now except the T005 figure 8 we hope to ship more but are awaiting clarity on the tariff situation first.

Policar T002, T003Z and T004Z Sets available to pre order.
