I'm a big, very big slot car (1/32 scale) fan and my first one was when I was in the 4th grade (Christmas) had no ideal where my parents had hid it. I later went to the HO scale when my first cousin came home from Korea in 73 and brought me my first Aurora track, I still have a 4 lane layout all boxed up and ready to be put back into action once the boys move out of the downstairs bedroom (they never caught the fever like me).
