I figure I have posted enough and I should introduce myself.
Hello my name is Warren and I'm a slotaholic! I'm from Rochester NY, and I love to play with little and big cars!
I'm 45 been playing with slot cars since I was a toddler, my father had a layout long long ago.
I got my first set when I was 8, and had them on and off through my years.
I have owned a couple of Camaros, and 84 Z28 that I sunk about $20k into, and a 68 Camaro.
I loved them, and sadly had to part with them. So now I play with the little ones and have fun!

I had a 70'+ layout with 45 lanes and a 9'+ long straight that was a blaster. A 50'+ layout with a RxR crossing and about 250 or so slots. I sold them off a few years ago, and now I'm back.

I have my little tuck away I'm making my own with some enhancements and building my slot collection back up.

So hello!

Welcome to The Slot Lodge Warren. Thanks for the introduction, it's always nice to know a little of our member's background. I think you'll find the slot related part of your past and present is a story very familiar to most of us here. Actually, much of the big car story too! Enjoy your time here and in the hobby mate.

Cheers,
Michael.
