It's great. My brorthers owned one of these way back and it was always difficult to end a race without one or more cars being thrown off.

I never owned a chopper( born before they came out) we used to rig our own bikes up fixed wheel no brakes, I actualy learned to ride on my dads Gas bike(gasman) then when I started seniors they bought me a racing bike, great days.

Yes, I remember there was a slotcar racing track in my town. Kids would bring their kit and race each other. Much less hi/tech then, of course, and slow enough that I could follow the cars w my eyes.
