Back when I was a kid, I had a newspaper route for a job. I spent most of my earnings on bicycle parts and slot cars. I think the local track was 1/24 scale. Anyway, I was just thinking about it recently. I couldn't find any tracks in my area, but did find this race video.

Re: Slot Car Racing
Holy hell. How do they get enough traction to accelerate a lightweight car like that?
