They were cool. I remember Chaparral slot cars, they were cool too.

I had one of those! Looked way cool and it was big, even for the commercial slot car arenas. Had a tendency to flare wide on curves, probably because of the size. I got special rear tires and it helped, some.

My old slot car tracks were the first thing I thought of when I saw the headline! =)

I had a Chaparral slot car, too. Very cool. I also raced a Cox slot car with a Cheetah body, I practically lived at the local slot car track.

Yep.

I had one.

The rear wing moved. I don’t remember how.

I put those colored tires on it. I can’t remember what those were called either, but they sure grabbed the track.
