Your welcome Matt!
I really dig those things. My boy was kicking but with the slot cars - big and small - at the Hobby Expo. Very funny and cool. My layout, the tuckawa 25, was easy to build, cost under 200 including the 4 lane set, and gets lots of use. Then I can fold up the legs and put it away till next time. Now that we have a finished basement, it stays up all the time. I like the AFX cars, but the tires stink, so I replaced them with silicone tires. My favorites are the Life Like old syle M chassis(original fast trackers, not the "maxx traxx"), and the old Tyco 440x2. Ironically, my two fastest cars are F1 440x2 that are from the 1980s. They truly dont make 'em like they used to. I found a larger 1/32 scale set at the Expo that is built to fit on a 4x8. Its on my X-mas list.
