Any slot car racers?

Never was in to slot cars or trains

On that German track, it looks like it's all about building the fastest car, and not driving ability.
In the video that Mark Dyson posted it looks like it might take some skill to stay on the track and navigate some merges and alternate routes.

Like many I got my slotcar fix in the 1960's. Built my own track out of particle board, and had a great time with my high school friends. Built a second track in 2003 to use as a test track to do what is called 'Proxy Racing'. You scratch build a car, then send it off to be raced by members of other clubs around the world. Here is a picture of my Audi (#70) I had back then. https://www.slotforum.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=942&hl=&page=7 You may have to scroll down to post 103. It was a lot of fun, but I just couldn't find anyone still interested locally, so I tore it down after two years. Can't believe it was that long ago.
