I'm interested in starting a slot car racing club. I have a home track in our basement. Yes I said basement, lol. We live on the edge of the Ocala National Forest. Anyone have interest in doing this? There's a club in Tampa but thats too far away for me. TIA

Yeah I was into in it's heyday in the 60's. Nowadays it's mostly home club tracks. There is a commercial track in Winter Garden though.

Someone new to the Villages asked about a slot car track a few months ago.

Just a few months ago I gave my daughter 3 slot cars I had for 50 years to sell. An orange Mako Shark, a red Cheetah, and a little white road racer. For awhile we had a racing place at the end of our street in a closed grocery store. They had 4 big tracks. It was fun while it lasted. Now I wonder if they were sold, for how much, and where's the money?

Is your track 1/32 or 1/24? What type of cars? I have everything from vintage to wing cars. Fast Eddies is a long drive!
