I had a slot car set by Eldon.
It was a lot of fun.
Then I moved up a bit to run at a local slot car track, and that was fun too.
Then it was off to a place with two huge tracks and three smaller one.
And everybody there was a die-hard racer with tons of kit and insanely fast cars, and even custom multi layered, multicolored controllers.
It was just too much money to have any fun, so I sold and gave stuff away.
A few months later, the tracks were all gone, nobody was racing them anymore.
Too bad.
That was my big brother's world. He had his own slot cars and would go to the slot car place. I'd go with him. I remember the metal brushes underneath the car. They way that they groomed them as if that made a performance difference.
