Cool......thanks Kurt.

I will have to find one for the stable.......Bruce! Yo...Bruce!......

Good tip, thanks Jeremy. :)

"Joey, the Double-Jointed Wonder Boy"...Kurt, you do know how to make me laugh!

"Scalextric staked their claim to this beloved racing era with their 1967 ‘Year of Legends’ set, and did such a good job with the late 1960’s open-wheelers, that nobody else has really ventured into this territory."

Thanks for reminding me, David -- I tend to forget what I've written. I write the article, tie it to a rock, and throw it out the window. By the time the rock hits the ground, I've forgotten what's on the page. :lol:

Hey Lee, glad you picked up on that. I'm not 100% sure that it's a 'cause and effect' thing, even though I wrote it that way. I don't know that other companies are scared off of the old open-wheelers because Scalextric did them so well. It may be that they've just had plans for other cars besides the old open-wheelers, and didn't choose to go down that road. But at this point, it would be a tough challenge to make, sort of like challenging Carrera with their 'winged warriors' stockers.

Thanks guys, glad you liked it (or bits of it). :)
