Very nice layout and scenery. That baby screams like it's got worm gear drive!
After seeing all the crazy rides people submitted photos of, I'm sorry I dismantled my GRUMMAN F-14 Tom Cat slot car!
It was based on a Sprints Plus chassis with Parma 16D power, and a Revell model kit. The jet had to make a few laps on the 140 ft. "Kingleman" track to qualify, and then won the contest for "Best Non Automotive Slot Car" at a local raceway some years ago.
I had the privilege of helping to assemble the 1/1 scale F-14 Tom Cats back in the 1980's.
Wish I still had THAT job! HAPPY NEW YEAR !! -- Ernie
P.S. I like the cowbell racer --
