Trivia

Another form of scale model drag racing is done with slot cars. You may be old enough to remember to remember the 1/25 scale, electric motor-powered cars. The tracks are 55 feet (1/4 mile scale) and come complete with electronic timing systems and “Christmas tree” starting lights. Cars run $35 on up…sometimes way up!
