Thunderbird Slot Racing

Great place, tracks, cars and parts with only a few minor things I’d change. Have been a bit sceptical writing a review as I was told all bad reviews will have you banned.

Awesome place. Great tracks and atmosphere. Chris is very helpful and always up for a chat. Great coffee without the fuss.

Chris has pushed through to make the best slot car tracks and clubs in South Australia. Carrying dome of the best supplies of parts. Highly recommended as a kid's party venue as well as the adult's re-living their childhood memories.

Good Tracks VERY helpful & friendly staff, I would recommend anyone with either 1/24 or 1/32 scale cars this is a GREAT place to test & practice your cars or if you have no cars they hire time, controllers & or cars so you have every option you want!

Always have great fun here - friendly, helpful staff & good selection of relevant merchandise.

Fantastic place to go, Bring your own or rent cars, controllers. Bring the family, good for parties or just having fun with friends.
Sell everything you need to build your own set at home as well as spare parts for your cars.

Good selection of cars and accessories, and the people that attend are so helpful with the knowledge which makes it a blast.

Had my son's 10th birthday today here! What a gem this place is! The owners are wonderful, and soo helpful! The only thing we had to do was organise the party room and food. The children enjoyed their hour of racing time with the lady who hosted it with so much professionalism! The best birthday experience as well as a unique one! Highly recommend this venue for your next party!

I bought and played with my new slot cars and had a blast I will definitely return and have some fun in the upcoming weeks

Great prices and great range. Lots of tracks for hire, the owner is very nice, helpful and knowledgeable. Bought a car from there and broke it quickly, we went back and he was able to get a new chassis from the UK. World class service. Stocks Scalextric, NSR, Carrera, etc.

Just a thing I wanted to have my girls experience, I loved the “step back in time” aspect the Lobethal slot car place had.
I’m sorry but T-bird is almost sterile and numb as to being comfortable.
How about a hello when we make eye contact, and maybe not groan when I order coffees.
Possibly some space invader like games,
Just sayin.

Ok, so we didn’t think that it was an outing that could have been better.

Such a great place. Heaps of tracks and great service. Loved it. Would recommend to all ages. Fun for kids, teens and adults.:)

Kid's had a great time there, something different for an outing, staff were helpful and not badly priced. Main thing was the kids loved it.

Dodgy. Bought a brand new set and it came with a car with the body glued to the chassis.

Insinuated i was a liar and then resorted to telling me it was supposed to be like that.

Giving them the benefit of the doubt I even called the UK to see if they indeed came glued.

Lies

UK Scalextric sent me to the distributor who replaced the car no worries.

Edit - So they continue to suggest i am lying. I still have the receipt. I was so appalled by their rudeness that I couldn't be bothered continuing a consumer affairs claim and went straight to the distributor. Unfortunately the distributor couldn't replace the car (Discontinued) but gave me a different livery which was good enough (and I got to keep the glued car).

Thunderbird really need to improve their attitude towards customers.

Wow, this was our first visit to this place, and I must say super impressed!
Hugh range of tracks for all ages and skill levels, plus plenty of spares, cars to spend your dosh on hahaha (think I bought x2 cars on impulse)

The facility is clean and tidy, with well maintained tracks.

Definitely, our new goto place for some slot car action - we have been going to the place on Daws Rd for years, but this place is closer and 10 times better

A giant shed FULL of custom made race tracks suitable for all levels. You can just ‘rock up’ and use some of their hire cars but they are pretty rubbish and tracks not that exciting - where the real fun here would be is having your own car and racing as some of the cars fly and the tracks seem fun and challenging to race on. It is like miniature formula one or gran turismo!

Very good place, staff were helpful and showed us how to use the cars. You can go for many laps if you want. I’ve racked up personal best on track 2 with 7.906

Great place, fun for kids (even more fun for the big kids!) The owners are lovely people, who have a passion for the business.
