When our club started in 1995 I had a huge 4 lane Revell layout. It started as an Americana set I bought, which could be assembled as a 25' 4 lane or 50' 2 lane layout, and grew from there as I acquired more loose track. Really great track in all respects. Virtually the same as Monogram. Those two were the best vintage track, except for the 3 lane 1/24 scale Scalextric, which compares favorably to this day even to the Carrera track. Would love to see more pix of your really clean Revell layout.
Interestingly, back in '95 those vintage cars, primitive as they were, shod with fresh rubber, would run and hide from magnet-less Scalex, SCX, Ninco, etc. cars.Those 'modern' cars were truly toys. Now, of course, those old Revell and Strombecker cars can't remotely hang with the NSR, SlotIt, Avant, ScaleAuto, Sideways, etc. cars.
