Ok, ok, vacation is over...............RATS!!!!
Here are some photos of my Maui Slot Car Buddy Thom Leonard and a portion of his fantastic collection:
Thom is in the process of assembling a club facility for slot car racing on Maui. What could be better than racing slot cars while vacationing in paradise?
These photos depict but a portion of Thom's extensive collection. His collection includes some very limited issue cars, as well as special limited production sets. I just drooled for hours!!!!

Re: Penguin Point Raceway - First Sunday Race Results - January (10 replies, posted in Penguin Point Raceway)
Uhhhhhhhhhhhhh...........................................crap!!!!...............maybe you need a vapor barrier??????!!!!!!
How much room do you have between the blue lane and middle lane on the front straight?
Since the photo shows the cars in positions on the same lane, how about a thin wall barrier between the blue lane and the middle lane on the front straight just in that area?

Re: Penguin Point Raceway - First Sunday Race Results - January (10 replies, posted in Penguin Point Raceway)
A thin strip of plastic as a barrier wall next to that from straight will work. I think I have some material that would work.... -----------------Bill

Re: Fly Classics Class Rules (16 replies, posted in Penguin Point Raceway)
I settled on a Porsche 917 Spyder for the first race. Didn't have time to finish up my Ford GT40.
The NSR tires I got wouldn't fit the Spyder. Not enough clearance between the tire sidewall and the top of the fender.
I'm going to try the Yellow Dog urethanes.
