Not for about 40yrs. Just bought a set to take over on my holls at christmas to the Philippines. Should keep me occupied between eating roasted pig and drinking san miguel

GAME???!!??  I think you're referring to my sim-racing....

Re: slot racing, I've got quite a lot of HO scale stuff from Aurora, here's a track I put together a few years back before boxing it all up and putting it away.

Would quite like to have the room to build a big digital set at some point.

I think the micro scale RC stuff is almost getting to the point that you can nearly do the indoor racing without the slots.

Cheers, Ross.

Things have moved on since my figure of 8 mini scalextric....

Yeah, it's bloody mad isn't it.  You still have to run round picking the cars up though which always gets boring after a while.
