View Full Version : Anyone know any AMRAC history? Crimnick 06-13-2007, 08:48 PM Curious... :) *MAYHEM* 06-13-2007, 11:09 PM Amrac bought Cox's molds and then somehow became ROKAR whick was bought out by Lifelike. That's the short of it anyway. I also understand the Darda and Rotofast bodies fit Cox/AMRAC/ROKAR/Lifelike chassis. coach61 06-13-2007, 11:42 PM One of my favorite slots is a marac the Datsun z car.. runs real nice... Bill Hall 06-14-2007, 02:17 AM One of my favorite slots is a marac the Datsun z car.. runs real nice... Mine's the Amrac Porshce Carerra RSR. Runs like a wet cat! The best representation to date. tomhocars 06-14-2007, 10:17 AM I hope these come out 1scalevolvo 06-14-2007, 11:24 AM Does LifeLike still produce the old Cox/Amrac/Rokar Porsche' cars or were they discontinued in the '90's ? Neal :dude: dlw 06-14-2007, 11:34 AM I don't think Walthers/LL does the Porsche and Datsun anymore, which is a shame. Many folks like them. *MAYHEM* 06-14-2007, 01:16 PM I don't think Walthers/Lifelike is doing anything but NAStyCAR now. Well, there are rumors of a ricer Honda. On a side note, the Amrac chassis is a takeoff on the Aurora G plus chassis and lends itself well to adding neo chips for added grip. :D videojimmy 06-14-2007, 01:17 PM YOu forgot to add the Darda connectin.. they were between Rokar and Life like... for a short time. I have two Darda slot cars... they;re the exact same thing as Rokar, only with a Darda tampo on it. zanza 06-14-2007, 02:52 PM My favorite body is also the Porsche RSR Concerning the Rotafast fitting bodies, the only one that can barely fit are the FAST Formula 1 cars (the one with the G-Plus clone chassis)... The genuine Rotafast cars with their weird chassis definitely don't fit an Amrac/Rokar/LL chassis... I have a comparison webpage about Rotafast if it can interest some here: http://slotcar.zanzaman.com/tip_rotafast.html VJ, about the Darda cars, what is the original chassis fitting below? A genuine Amrac? a Rokar? what is stamped (if any) under the chassis? I ask because I won two Darda recently and still haven't received them,. The picture was showing apparently a LifeLike chassis. VJ, I saw we both miss the Russell Maxx car auction last day on ePayy :wave: bluerod 06-14-2007, 07:11 PM about 20 years ago i came across a amrac catelog with future release that never came out items like pinto and vega sprint cars car haulers and a list of race sets that never happen if i could find the catelog iam sure there was more items listed vBulletin® v3.8.7, Copyright ©2000-2012, vBulletin Solutions, Inc.
