Bob Nakamura's NEW Scalextric Track in Troutdale - The Gorge Raceway

Saturday February 8th I made a trip over to Bob Nakamaru's in Troutdale for his open house and unveilling his new Scalextric track. Bob's track and facility is just beautiful! The four lane Scalextric track is layed out in a fast well flowing design. There are fast sweeping curves as well as a couple tricky tight corners to keep you paying attention! He has also worked a nice long front straight into his design. The track is very nicely and realistically decorated. The track is equipped with a computerized lap counting and timing system which worked perfectly. Bob plans to hold some Trans Am races, for stock out of the box Scalextric Trans Am cars. These cars even with the stock rubber rear tires work very well on Bob's track! We race quite a few laps and had some excellent dicing!

Thanks for letting me come over and run some laps Bob! I fully expect to enjoy some great racing at The Gorge Raceway!
