WOW. That's awesome looking! I love how much work he put into the scenery. It's neat how he's got everything from a hilly countryside a to downtown area. It's almost like someone took a racing video game and put it in 1/87th. SWEET!

That is the nicest slot car layout I have ever seen. Wonderful layout and a whole lot of work! The old Tyco slot cars! Great Job!

That's really great to see. I had a lot of that Aurora track; I even had the turnout sections used for the pit area. I had plenty of AFX cars, but I always preferred the old T-Jets, because they didn't have magnetraction and took more skill to drive. I had one of those T-Jet hotrods, too.

I always liked the T Jet dune buggy with the stripes on the roof...
I like the way the slot car layout has the gound at or above the edges (sides) of the slot track.

That's awesome. I really wanted to incorporate my T-jets into my train layout, but I didn't have enough space.

Thats my plans Burlington. I done it before years ago and have an 8x12 drwn out to scale. Recently after a little study of the plans. I have decided to go 8X16 or maybe 8X20. There are two spots on my plan that is just a bit crowded. I want to spread those areas out a bit.

That sure is great and probably one thing that you would not be able to take you eyes off.
I have been really interested with a lot of other car models aside from Tyco and when you come to think of it, there just are some pieces that are marvelous and ones that you could lord over.
I wonder though how, aside from this forum, the market would pick up considering the exposure they have gotten through the years.
