The Austin Slot Car Club was conceived in 2009 by a small group of slot car racing enthusiasts in the Austin, TX, area that wanted to exchange information and ideas, and provide encouragement and support for those engaged in the hobby of slot cars.
In 2010, with the help of King's Hobby, the club has constructed a custom three-lane routed wood track, complete with landscaping and lap counter system. The building process took roughly six months and hundreds of hours to complete; the result is a one-of-a-kind track, both fast and technical.
The Austin Slot Car Club Track is a custom built, three-lane wood track with an average lane length of 54 feet (16.46 meters). Lane spacing is constant at 4.5 inches (11 cm) so that 1/32 and 1/24 scale cars can be raced. The track is tastefully landscaped, however great care has been taken to ensure that there are no sightline barriers to impede racers' vision.
ASCC races true scale 1/24 and 1/32 cars and believes in having fun while enjoying close and exciting racing. All enthusiasts, regardless of skill level, are welcome to come along and participate. Meeting times for ASCC can be found HERE.

Never forget that first place goes to the racer with the MOST laps, not the racer with the FASTEST lap
