No one runs slot cars in So Cal!

Oh wait - maybe some do.:)

Lake Elsinore eh? My first home when I moved out at 18 yrs old was a mobile home at Cranes.

Anyway, lots of good threads here on building 4 lane garage tracks. Here's a link to one:

Good luck with the track, don't be afraid to ask questions, and remember: There is no 'h' in 'ideas'.

Hey Scaf, there is only an "h" in idea if you're from the Bahston areah! California is where there is apparently no uppercase letters or attempts at punctation. Amp must have been born in the northeast and then moved to the west coast. ;)

Another good spot with lots of layouts is at http://www.hoslotcarracing.com/index.html

Go the the layouts page, you heah?

Amp,

Do check out the website link Marty provided above, and the Layouts link on that webpage as he mentioned. Look at the single car garage where you want to build this track, and decide what size table you can fit in there.

If you are serious about building a track, and getting your kids involved in this fun and educational hobby, let us know what you table size and track layout you are leaning towards. You never know what type of help you will get from the members of this forum.

Keep us posted.
