nice work. I was into slot cars when I was younger and also was into model car making. Have started making models again, but I don't think there are any tracks like yours up this way...

I have about 20 Slot Cars of Various Makes. COX, Tamiya, Pitman all from the '60s. They were given to me by my Dad, I have a few Very Potent Rewind Motors(16D,20D,26D) as well as a Rare General Electric all Roller Bearing Motor, It cost my Dad 2 weeks wages back in that.
Most my cars in need of TLC, But I have a few Ferarri Open Wheelers, Ferrari Dino, Chev Chapparelle, Ford GT40, Lotus Open Sports(Jim Clarke Replicas). All are pretty much Slot Versions of Race of the Era. When I get my own house I'm going to build my Own Track. As Scalextric track isn't that good, Seem Rewound Motor melt the Track because the Wheel Spin too Much.

I have a sentimental Love for my Slot Cars, So I ain't planning on selling any of them. I actually want to get some Bodies for a few of them, as some have seen High Speed crashes in to Walls :(
