Slot Car Racing (or Surf Music)




I haven't actually downloaded this surf album but the cover image took me back a few years to the slot-car racing craze of the 1970's. There were actually lots of 'hobby' stores at the malls that had big tracks set up in the store and then charged a small fee to use.

  2. Spamming mofo's.... these guys are so evil. I would love to go to one of their houses and use their living room like a toilet, similar to what they do to our blogs...

  3. I had a 2 lane slot car track when i was about 12. Just like that photo shows it was hard keeping those suckers from flying off the tracks on the curves. Sadly, like all my childhood toys, the track went to some cousin or another after I had gotten "too old" for it.

    I look for these things on ebay. I'd have a small fortune in my hands had my parents not insisted I give the stuff away.
