About me.....sort of...

 Okay, I know, the picture is more than a few years old but, the boy racer in me will never die!  Somehow, I'm going backwards in life...raced "real" cars in the SCCA for three years in the 1980's.....then, after the money ran out, graduated to 1/10th scale radio-control road racing for a few years.  While RC was a lot of fun, it lost it's charm when things started "dissapearing" from our pits while we were running a race!  Discovered 1/32nd scale slots around 2007, when I was looking for a model of a Ferrari 512 BB LM on ebay.....  What did I run into but a Carrera slot car.  The car was so nice looking I couldn't help but buy it, even though I new nothing of slot cars or slot car racing.  After recieving the car I couldn't help but be impressed with it's beauty and detail....made me hit the "net" looking to see what else was available as a "slot car"! 

Fast forward a few years, I'm on my third track...started with Carrera plastic track then, got the bug to "route" my own track.  GHIR is the 2nd track I've routed (the first was a smallish 3' x 5' modified figure 8 to learn how to build a track).  It's said that building these tracks is addictive....hmm, must be true, I can't wait to build another one!
