I hope to be there, if nothing else to meet up, learn more, and marshal
Started racing slot cars back at the old Grand Avenue Raceway on Grand Ave. in Chicago, Illinois.
Started with Group 12, moved up to Group 27 and Open.
Still have my two cars and over a dozen arms.
Just recently discovered a track local to me and am looking forward to meeting up with the old timers and new people in the hobby.

The wife (Dawn) and I had a great time. Thanks to everyone for welcoming Dawn!
While we did have to leave after the 2nd race, I did get pictures of the race drivers and cars at the start of the races.
