Description: Promoting H.O. slot car racing in Los Angeles California.

This was my 2-lane floor set up back in 2000 with timed heat races.....what a blast!! I moved some furniture aside, built a track, and invited some of my buddies over for a day of racing. I eventually built some 4-lane layouts so we could all race at the same time. It grew into a small slot car club which I called Barrington Raceway and we met on a monthly basis. We all looked forward to our next race to see who's cars were the fastest and it became a fun social event for us all.
...And then the Culver City Car Show! This turned out to be the best place to get this hobby back into the public eye!! So many remarked on how they once raced slot cars when they were kids. Who said that you ever had to stop?
Another blessing has recently arrived on January 20, 2009! History has once been made with the birth of my first Son, or should I say "little racer"! I know he seems a bit young, but I was hoping that he didn't wait till he was 8 to get his hands on some H.O. slot cars. The new AFX Mega-G seemed to be the perfect product, since my first set was an AFX too!!
