Title: Local youth club
Post by: GlennB on July 23, 2017, 23:39:06 PM
To be honest not sure if such a thing exists in Turkey, however I have sat in my store room a VERY large Scalextric Set, as I'm in the process of putting my apartment on the market, so I would love to give it to a deserving local cause if anyone has any ideas please post them, I'm out for another week this time but would love it to go to a good home, it's digital so can race 6 cars with lane changing.

How about donating it to 3C's for their next auction ?

Or to one of the "Love Homes" that the 3C's helped to equip. Another suggestion is Fethiye Boys Orphanage.

I am sure, if you can take it to the 3C's shop, they will find the best place for it

Busybee, the Boys's orphanage has been amalgamated into one of the Love Homes

I like the idea of the 3c's having it, I would prefer it to go to somewhere it will be used, as I said it is very large, two of the big storage boxes and a bit more so not the sort of thing to wander around with, if anyone from 3c's has a car and could pick it up please message me

Hi GlenB, I have sent a message to the secretary, in the hope that we can get transport to collect.

The deed is done, just dropped it to the 3c's shop, pleasant stroll back along the front now a cold beer as a reward

And a very well deserved cold beer it will be too.   :)  :)  :)

Hi GlenB, you beat us to it, was going to get it collected it today.  Takes a while to message, email people, to arrange these things.  On behalf of the 3C's A BIG THANKYOU, I am sure it will bring a lot of fun and pleasure.

No problem, as I said when I dropped it off, really important to only use one power supply in the circuit at a time, whether it's connected to power or not one will 'fry', I tried it???? And as the six car controller is £160 to replace it gets expensive, all instructions can be downloaded from the Scalextric web site. May it give years of fun. I did have a last minute thought about 3c's keeping it and having charity race nights to raise money, 6 cars with overtaking plus a competitive nature could raise some money.
