Slot Cars Racing

This is something of a new hobby for me but to some an old tradition of table top racing. The objective is get around a fix routed track with slots without falling out of it or coming out of it, which proves a real challenge in the balancing and setting up the car. Which reminds me when i was a kid my dad bought us a set of these to assemble and play at home....(those were the days) As far as i can see or remember, the cars now are very much better looking and attractive than before (lol), and its definetly could appeal to alot of ppl, age range from 10yr - 60yr + (even kids are so darn competitive in the club) and dun underestimate those "uncle's" too, they have lots of experience..... It seems to be a get together thing for me and my dad as we rarely did or have common intrest together except for motorsport racing. He chance upon it from his friend some couple of months back, telling him that they are forming a club soon and invited my dad to go over when they are lauched. Here are some pictures of the cars we are running and the cars that we have in our collection: NSR Clio Cup NSR Mosler MT900R Mini Cooper Limited Edition "Italian Job" Slot.It Mclaren GTR F1 Slot.it Lancia Martini LC2 Mercedes AMG CLK These are really scale models about 1:32, and they are replica of the real world counterparts in terms of the design. We normally race them over the weekend with the club members. Intresting thing is there are on & off races going on, some will like to take part the league tournament and some are there for just pure fun and to satisfy their need for speed. This little monster can be very fast if tune and set properly. Sadly the club which is located in (Aman Suria, Damansara, Malaysia) isn't getting much crowd or awarness. Maybe thru here haahahah people will get to know more. In due time i will post even more on this sport. Getting into this hobby isn't very expensive i would say if compare to R/C (phew). A decent car will cost around RM 200 and it will run very well already out of the box. Just some minor touch here and there and it will be competitive. lol...... i dun even have the adresss to the club... i will post in future.... till then......
