Remember slot cars?

Holy shit dude!

That's impressive.

We ran them as kids, even into my late teens. Was a big gearhead back in the day.

there is a place here in pueblo that has one, you can rent the track and run your own car, borrow or buy a car from them, and they have points races weekly for the serious, it is fun and not real expensive.

Cool! Party at Don's house

I attend two different clubs that race regularly. It's free to race and attend. We give out loaner cars to get you started. There are about 10 tracks like mine that we rotate where the race will be held (greater Denver area).
This is my track (80 feet). We're racing here next Thursday if anyone is interested.

Freaking awesome. [Beer]

I spent many, many hours playing with slot cars as a kid, but I didn't have anything as badass as this. I just had a General Lee and Roscoe's cop car that chased it around. [Awesom]

I played tamiya!!!!

I worked in a place that had 2 large tracks and sold Karts and Cycles. Very nice job guys. I used to run an old group 15 car.

Brings back a lot of memories from being a kid. I loved slot cars...

I really hope those are the cars of your club not all yours personally. I not they have tv shows called hoarders you may want to check out. Just joking day that is mighty impressive set up and looks like good fun for not alot of dough all I know hobbies like this get out of control quicly like guns car and rc cars.

There used to be a place on south Broadway called Jimbo's.
My dad used to take me a few times a year and one year I even had a birthday party there. Pretty big event for a 7 or 8 year old.
Throwback to a simple time. I had an AFX track and my favorite car was a Chapparel.
Still couldn't compare to the big cars though.
I see a COAR 15 race night in your future......


Thanks for keeping a very good childhood memory and bit of Americana alive[Beer]
