[urq] Slot Cars

[Ben Howell]

I don't claim to know A LOT about slot cars, I don't think I have ever seen a 1/24 slot car. 1/32 is pretty common though:

I can even begin to comment on the quality or detail on any of these, but I have some old SCX cars in my collection and they look pretty nice. At one point in time, I had a Slot-it 1/32 S1 and the quailty and detail was pretty rough, but it was just intened as a "toy", so how much can one ask?
