Bart and I being dedicated road racers with the knowledge of a couple tracks that may need to be relocated, intitiated a conversation regarding room needed to move said tracks to. Ron responded by pointing up and saying; "there's a ceiling". He than pointed out that; "where there's a ceiling, there's a floor". I asked how big this space was. Ron matter of factly responded; "the floor is the same size as the ceiling!". Well....That makes sense!
This is what the ceiling looked like from the floor side! The height is somewhat limited at the joists but, Bart and I both cleared just fine, which in our opinion made the space perfect for a track! Opinions may vary depending on your ride height!
All of you slot car enthusiasts that have no interest in real cars (are there any?) can quit reading now. The rest of our tour included Ron's big shop where the drag strip room is located, the engine shop and the fabrication shop. Yes, they were separate buildings on Ron's property.
Along with Ron's motor home and double decker enclosed car trailer, 41 foot motor home, and Bob Glidden's ex-pro stock car, is this way cool full fender '32 Ford five window waiting its turn in the Fab shop for completion. This is an all steel car that Ron drove home before he started the rebuild over 30 years ago!
