HO Scale Slot Cars-Anyone Into Them? - Hobbies and Interests - International Cannagraphic Magazine Forums

I would say other sizes but there doesn't seem to be any tracks nearby and if I were to have my dream track built it would need it's own building, hence my interests in HO scale.

Anyone have track at home? Into Drag racing?

Lot of fun, lots of changes since I put my controllers down back in, er 1970

Hah, I was just talking to an old friend about the Aurora set up
I had back in '68-'69. I still have some parts and cars, I'll post
pics.

Unsure if I want to get into it again, but you never know, lol.

Bought a little track. Check this cool HO car out

Some of these HO's feel similar to the old 1/24's from the late 60's !

Here's a couple of Riggen brass chassis cars ( the white one is a tyco made in hong kong with a brass chassis and no it doesn't compare with the Riggens or Landsharks which I'll posit pics of when I get them, and the Riggens and Sharks are several decades old and just restored to racing form.They are super quiet, fast and without the magnets of todays cars, drive very much like the old 1/24 scale cars of the 60's. Very neat cars that are not made anymore but there's a guy in Fla that is heir apparent of sorts:

for some reason a 2nd image won't appear in the same post, help!
