Hobby I just recently got into, drag racing 1/24 slot cars. It's heavily addictive, just like the street/track there's tons of **** talking and $ bets. At the local track we bracket race and the pot is usualy around $500-$1000 every saturday night. Just thought I would show a few pics since a few friends asked me about the hobby...

That looks pretty cool. I've heard of the circuit racing but never drag. Post some vids if you get a chance.

that looks pretty sick! Is the track in scale with the cars to still be 1/4 mile for the size of the cars?

Everything is to scale. We have a nice size christmat tree, computer tells us our 60ft, 660ft, 1/4 E.T., reaction, and M.P.H. All the math is there to simulate a real 1/4 mile pass with a real sized car. My 2 cars are above adverage, an adverage car runs anywhere from 1.1seconds to 1.4seconds. We call the 1.1s a 11sec pass, we just move over the decimal point on all the stats and there just like real cars. The 60ft is realistic, I cut .13 60ft times which would be a 1.3sec 60. Both my cars run bottom 10s which would be just over 1.0sec, the RX7 is a low 9sec or .9sec car...

slot cars! hahah..i used to be into rc cars

I wish that would start up around here. Rc racing was way too expensive for my liking, and most others, and almost all tracks have closed around here. How closely are the motors monitored? I could see it being very easy to take apart those and unwinding those motors.
