I've started two major big jobs today. I have disassembled quite a bit of the track, and I am sorting all my 1/32nd cars. This sorting hasn't been done in 10 years. For years, they have been sorted by several criteria all at the same time, completely schizoid. If I can ever get this done, I hope to have all the boxes sorted by classes of racing, such as today, with 4 boxes of Trans Am, with subdivisions for Ford/Mercury, Chevrolet, AMC/Mopar, and U2, which may be two boxes, but I can't tell yet because the U2 cars are distributed across 4 boxes in the old system. There's one box I have been adding to for years and years, labelled "Little Guys". There are a lot of U2 cars in there. The boxes are 24"x6"x14", so they hold roughly 45 cars on average, except the Little Guys box, that has well over 100 Minis, NSUs, Abarths, Trabants, Renaults, etc. Its torture visiting these cars I like so much and the track is down for repair! At some point soon, the 5 boxes of NASCAR from several eras will be a huge piece of work. I've decided to sell the modern (1974 and newer) NASCARS, they just don't appeal to me anymore. The LMP1 & LMP2 plus GT1 and GT2 will be a party all day, probably next week.
