Well sir, thank you for sharing this and we all are thinking of you and your Dad.

THAT is a great video.

And thank you Paul Gage. You are top notch. We can use any tire we want these days. It's the people behind the products that make the difference and you are one of the best.

Well done.

Dave, I've been down that road you're on 3 times, Mom, Dad and Brother. Sounds like your Dad is a fighter so I'm willing to bet the odds are with him. Our thoughts are definitely with your family and your Dad in particular.
Loved the video (turn the speakers up, indeed!) and that has to be the smoothest Carrera Bentley I've ever seen!
And as for Paul, he's just another example of how great our little HRW family is (present company included). Nice one Paul!

Beautifully designed track, and a very cool video with cars that hold a special meaning to you and your Dad. I'll bet that he'll be watching that video over and over again during these difficult times.

You're a class act. Good luck.

Great video and a great tribute! ................but I think you had the Bentley ahead of the Audi............something must be wrong there.................! :lol:

Great looking desert track; I like the realistic track sides, the layout and the details.

Another Paul Gage fan here; I use his tires all the time; great products. Now he's great in my books for another reason.

Good luck to your dad; sounds like he's doing well. As a former oncology researcher, I know that it's not an easy therapy regimen that he's facing right now.

Thank you for all the well wishes - I will pass them all along.

The next few days will be rough (due to the chemo) but after that we will have a play day when he's up for it.

All the best to your Dad for a successful recovery. I had no idea a Carrera Bentley Speed 8 was actually a slot car that could be driven. Great tuning and nice track.

Great movie Dave and Best wishes to your Dad. And yes, include your Dad in the car tuning and track maintenance. I didn't do that with my Dad and now I really regret it. My Dad really enjoyed wood working and he only got to see a couple pictures of the track I built but he really enjoyed those two pictures. Always include your Dad while he is still around to enjoy it so you don't regret it like me.
