Hello Y'all,

The open house for my shop and slot car track (Bob McFarland's track which was recently moved to my place) is NEXT Saturday April 27th!

Doors will be open at 9:00AM and will stay open until 11:00PM, or the last person decides to leave.

PM me if you need the address.

We will be serving hot dogs, snacks, and drinks. I am not sure of what the turn out will be, so if you would like to bring along a snack, drink, or side dish to share that would be awesome, but not required.

In addition, Bob Nakamura will be opening his new 8 lane 1/24 hill climb track in southeast Portland at 2:00PM. The track will be open for running and testing.

PM me if you need the address for Bob's new track.

Hope to see you all next Saturday!

It really was a lot of fun! The action is quite a bit faster than the 1/32 cars we are currently racing, but not crazy fast like the neo traction magnet type cars.

I think I pulled a muscle with that leg slide................

I'm one of those guys that doesn't care for digital racing. I have enough trouble with just throttle control and the lane change thing just detracts from the whole racing experience for me. When I have run in digital events I usually just stay in one lane unless I absolutely have to move into the other lane. I like to participate in 1/32, 1/24 and even HO races, so I just don't need yet another fraction in my hobby. I think digital is great for those that enjoy it, but I have so many different events I want to attend this coming year, I just don't see being able to add anymore. Thanks for the invite Doc, but I'm going to have to pass.
