Hi All,
This is my first post here and I would just like to say thanks for all the info and then get to the digital.
I played around with some slots way back when and have now developed a new slot car interest in my retirement.
Special thanks to Nick Zuk, Dave Waters and Terry Enos (who put me onto this site) and the guys at Lightning Speedway and others; who have answered many questions and been a great help.
Now for the digital. I decided that digital is the way to go for me. This has been a result of reading many posts here and on other forums and talking with the aforementioned people.
The decision has been difficult. So many choices/possibilities. It has at times, been down right confusing. Now, I am designing my track and will hopefully be building it and racing in the near future.
I have further decided that I will probably go with Carrera. My available space is 15' X 15'. I could stretch an extra foot on one side if needed. But was thinking of utilizing that for an additional drag strip as I can get about 22' length in that area. May be a bit short but we will see.
My limited exposure to wood tracks has been good and I like them, but I just think digital meets my needs better. I do wonder why some wood guys simply refuse to go to digital? Same nice people, same cars (with a little modification) IMO,as much or more fun.
So, here is the deal - when I get everything set-up, you can come to my house and digital a try. I am in Howell, MI.
Thanks to all,
Don
