    Default Remember slot cars?

    To lighten things up, let me share with you my minor obsession in slot cars, which since I have been back racing the past two years I havent done much of, but the 100' 4 laner in the basement is still there.

    I built the track myself, its 100ft lane length, 4 lanes, built of wood with an epoxy surface, with individual power per lane and computer controlled timing and scoring which I also built. I have about 400 or so cars.

    My next-to-last Chief (as in, CMS or E-9) was and I think still is big into slot cars too.

    And it's probably just a coincidence but the guy in the black and white plaid shirt sure looks like a guy I used to work with...

    Sure the next time I hold an event I will make sure to send an invite. You dont build a big ass track with 4 lanes to play all by yourself...

    Nice collection! I remember a lot of those cars- not inexpensive either. Scalextric?

    I got a set as a kid for Christmas. My dad and his friends got to play with it for almost a week before I got to even touch it.

    Still have it in its original box.

    Scalextric, Slot.it, SCX, Carrera, Fly, NSR, pretty much all the cool stuff.
