Re: Drag Racing Toys
Nice. At our local "Cars & Coffee" there is a guy that comes out with a trailer setup with one of the large slot tracks. Pretty cool.
I think it's called Games2U or Racing2U or something. They also sell the track sets. Not cheap.
I ran a lot of the AFX small cars and tracks, but never got to do the big ones. There was a store that was set up that you could go race them though.
I do remember me and a buddy getting all of our straight AFX track and making a drag strip the length of my parents hallway. We would buy the larger foam tires, hopped up motors, etc and race, crashing them into a pillow at the end of the line.
My car was similar to a Charger, black with a blower. Between the tires and hot motor it would try to pull the wheels the whole track, which made it kind of bounce the whole way. Went through a lot of those contact shoes.
