Any History on Challenger Chassis & Parma Brass HO?
Will HO get a lease a paragraph in your new book, use a smaller font?

Tony P is still very active in the HO circles and very competitive.
Of interest, the Retro bug has hit the HO guys like a storm. They are scratch building HO cars and have brought back "Brass Wars".
The Michigan HO racers began the movement based upon the success of 1/24th scale IRRA retro racing.

The only thing bad about Retro is admitting that you remember doing it originally.

Weren't there 2 Cox HO cars that you were involved with, possibly with Leisure Dynamics or the remnants of Eldon?None from me. The only HO associations I had were with Matchbox, then Riggen, then Dynamic, then as described above with Aurora, and very little of that, since it was resumed to two drawings!
However, the Matchbox design led to something quite interesting as you can see here.
HO is part of the history, so yes, here and there, history or models as well as other information surfaces, but the book is not about HO cars.

The diversity of approaches in the non-magnetic gravity magnet cars is very interesting. Someone should be documenting the design and build efforts of Joel Pennington.
