Those are nice ones for sure! We had never bought any of those since we usually buy brand new from the local hobby shops and they carry Scaletrics, Carerra, Fly, and Slot it.

The NSR ford mk iv comes with the spare tyre in the back but it sometimes shifts during racing so you'll find most guys remove it 😀

Mike...that's quite the collection. I remember slot car racing in the late '70s...maybe a bit bigger scale 1/24 ? I did some research to see slot car popularity here in the Northeast and much to my surprise found many tracks. I believe it's still very popular across the US. Have fun racing and give us a film of your track when ready. Christian...good to see you and I love your cap and t-shirt ! 👍👍👍

Thank you for your comment James! Great to hear from you and for the information. We have a couple swap meets for a slot cars in St Louis every year, they are packed! It is still going strong for sure. 1/24 is correct, a lot of cool and highly collectible 1/24 is still out there and Carrera makes 1/24 cars still as well as 1:32 and their track accommodates both. Christian says hello and thank you as well. Slot cars are definitely more of a passion for him than trains. He was so excited, we opened up all of them and tested that night. He was in heaven! lol. Have a good one my friend. 🙂👍

Thank you! We appreciate it. We’ve never sold any of our slot cars and amazingly didn’t end up with any duplicates. I’ll let you know if we do part with some for sure. 👍

Perfect timing Mike. Just set up my scalextric track a few days ago… its mostly classic with some sport track mixed in… always loads of fun! Longest straight is 23ft. Folds over 3 times.other straights are approx 20ft. Looks like you did well with the auction. 👍🏼. Nice to see how you and your son share the same passions.

That is perfect timing! I’ve always loved slot cars, trains, Rc Cars, Hot wheels, etc. Christian was so excited last night about the cars. He finally admitted he likes racing slot cars more than trains. lol. Let’s…..GO…..Racing! Well, could be “Gentlemen, Start Your Engines!” Wow, that sounds like and awesome set up! Plenty of speed capabilities with challenging the skills on curves. We got into digital and joined a league with 4 racers on two lanes at a time, have it pit to fill up, and so on. It’s a good size track as well. We used to set up on a rug on the floor where are O scale layout is now. We are going to change that for sure! Have fun! Awesome hobby! Thanks for sharing. 🙂

Thank Henry, he is actually a bigger slot car fan than trains. He was pretty excited to take a look at all these and now is asking for another slot car track layout. We had a nice HO scale 4 lane layout that was a race in the mountains and was all landscaped. I guess it’s time to build one for 1:32 cars this time. Anything for my buddy! He rarely asks for anything, so when he does I know he is really interested in it.

This is some great stuff Mike and Christian! I said it once before and I’ll say it again. You have a wonderful variety of hobbies. Not only are you into trains of all different scales, but slot cars as well!! I personally still have all of my Aurora Thunder Jet and AFX Cars from the late 60’s and early 70’s that I love as well. When I was a young boy, I had my HO train layout in the basement. I used to put a slot car layout alongside my buildings incorporated into my train layout. I would use a rubber band on my hand controller to pull on the trigger, and adjust the tension on the hand controller so the cars would go at a certain speed running around with my trains. Seeing you open up one of your boxes of slot cars brings back fond memories of me playing with both my trains and slot cars together. This was an excellent video Mike!! Tom

Hi Tom! Thank you for your comment. Christian and I are big fans of Thunder Jets. You actually have to have skills to run them. My Dad bought me an Aurora slot car track when I was 4. We would race for hours. It came with a Blue Nomad Wagon and a Yellow 55 Chevy. Then I really liked the skinny tire on the old thunder jets so he started finding some of those for me. I bought Christian a 4 line G Plus slot car track for his second birthday. We made a table for it and landscaped it in 2012. All the neighborhood kids loved to race on it. I don’t like the new Al cars as much because they stay on the track at full throttle, no skill invoked but they do go crazy fast. The rubber band on the controller is a good idea, I had to race solo a lot as a kid because I’d play with my slot cars into all hours of the night until I had to go to bed. Awesome memories for sure! 🏎️🚗🚂🙂

Mike ,What a score!!! You are a lot like me I am 56 and been into slot cars and trains my entire life. It’s like a sickness lol. But I enjoy it because it reminds me of my childhood . I like that your son is into it and his excitement which is awesome. I mainly collect slot cars but due occasionally run them on track. I would definitely like to see more of your collection of slot cars and some of your Marklin trains. Which I am heavy into . Z scale and a little of HO. I did see you video on Marklin collection that you purchased. Keep it in the slot my friend.🏎🏎

Hi, thank you so much for your comment, I’ll start posting more slot car stuff for sure and Marklin Z and N. Yes, it’s cool we have that in common and I know exactly what you mean. When I was 11 I actually got a Tyco HO Scale Illinois Central Gulf Train Set and a TCR racing lane changing slot car set for Christmas. That was a very memorable Christmas for sure. Thanks again for checking out the channel and keep in touch! I’d like to see your collection also. 👍 Mike 🏎️

Yes definitely. I don’t have a you tube channel because I am camera shy. lol But definitely would like to keep in touch. I had a similar experience when I was 7 or 8 years old I received a tyco train set on a 4x8 board my dad mounted on for me with landscape , houses etc. I still have the locomotive today and runs great. Also that same Christmas I received a AFX slot car track mounted on a board as well. I would have to say my dad was busy. I would have to say that Christmas was a little overwhelming for me. Because you don’t know what to play with. Unfortunately I don’t have my original set but I do have 3 other vintage AFX sets and 2 vintage aurora sets. 1 is the t jet set and the other is a 1/32 scale AURORA SET WITH THE K& B cars witch I am sure you are familiar with. All from the 60’s All the best and stay healthy. Olaf
