wow, thats sweet i wish i had one of those at my house. I remember way back in the day me and my dad went to a place and rented the cars. We had so much fun.

[GRITS]

the cars 1/32 and 1/24 they all run on the same track

[_Acid_Head_]

[Reciprocity]

Somehow, thats not quite what I imagined your basement to look like. /me Points at gtab's avatar.

Beyond that, this stuff rules, yes, mmmhmmm.

God I wish I had that race track you see Josh racing on B)a buddy of mine from highschool bought it and we have been racing at his place, in the first pic, if you look behind Josh, that is the quarter mile track with a christmas tree and computer keeping track of speeds and times, the big track is also computer controlled and keeps track of laps and laptimes. We are putting together a light truck series beginning next month. First prize is a slotdrag bike <--bad ass but very hard to control, its way to fast for its size. We will also be putting together a dragster series soon after, so when I get my drag car built I will post pics. Oh and I wish I had what GRITS has in her basement :P

what josh and I are racing now are 1\24 scale 4 inch cars, harder to drive then the 4 and a half but when you learn you can step up to the 4 and a halfs with the killer motors and do really well.

[GRITS]

So now we have one more reason for you and Josh and I to get together:)

[fritoman]

GRITS you know Josh and I have always wanted to meet you :P maybe someday we can get together, I think we would have soooo much to talk about:P

[fritokid]
