Any of you guys still running these? I've had them,sold / Traded them,etc.
Got the itch again to do a little drag racing.Bought a "like new" set off of the bay.
Well it needed some work,but have it up and running now..
Had to raise the rails on a few pieces,mainly the start and finish gates.
Simple layout for now with a foam catch box.
To quote my Hot Wheels racing buddy off of the net,
Still fast and still Fun! :auto-driving:

Yep I've got one may need to set it up again. JIm

Still have my set. Never set it up. Guess I should some day

I still have one also. I just packed it up as I'm doing some work on the basement. Hope it's out again by fall.

I was supposed to be doing one of my three major summer model/slot car promotions this Sunday at the annual vintage drag and street car show here. Unfortunately, the new owner of the auxiliary parking lot which is used for all of the street driven cars decided (two weeks before the event) that he wanted a minimum $500,000 liability policy in place for the day! Needless to say, that killed the event, and now we won't be selling the T-shirts or collecting the donations to raise money for The Wounded Warrior Project as is done each year. Not to mention disappointing all those families who use the slot car drag strip and enjoy the real race cars at the show each year. I'm trying to work something out at another large event next month, but it just won't be the same. Seeing and hearing vintage fuel cars firing up one at a time up close is a unique event in itself, which usually doesn't happen unless you're in the pits at a drag strip. Our model car club, the local commercial slot car tracks, and the three big model/slot car shows all got a great shot in the arm from this event every summer. I hope something can be worked out for next year. And I really had worked updating the fleet of drag cars for this year, too! Enjoy the summer -- Ernie :>)

Sorry to hear that Ernie.From your post we've seen how hard you worked at this.Hopefully you will be able to continue at another event.From what I've seen the insurance deal is costing many vintage Drag racing fun events..If you get a chance show us your Fleet of dragsters..
hang in there

It is a neat set. I've given/sold most of my cars but the set went to some little ones who like it a lot.

Cool Rusty! I have mine put away for now.
