Just got an e mail from Carl and Slot Pro Speedway is comming for sure and getting 4 tables for the huge amount of stuff he is bringing. He usally takes more than an hour getting it all out on display. From T Jet to G3s he has all the HOT parts you want (or can afford). Haven't heard about MEV Orignals but after the DOG dropped more than $200 on bodies in the Spring I hope he returns (I love my D & C type Jaguars for road racing).
Good to hear you will try to make it Slot Wagons be sure to ask around for the Kdog, after the incadent last year they always know where to find me.

Kevin,
Is there a site or flyer with more information on the show? Vending, swap, etc.? Do they have an actual show contest for cars?

There are around 20 to 30 Vendors Slot Pro Spweedway, Road Race replicas, not sure about MEV. but you won't have a problem spending every penny you can scrape together, (the DOG always does). We don't have a contest but good idea, I'll mention it to Carl one of the orginizers. There is a flyerI'll try to get Carl to post it.

Ahhh the fall show has come and gone, what a great time for everyone. We would do one more than twice a year but who could afford that. Greg Skelton brought his amazing T Jet O Guage drag stirp complete with a computer and Track Mate timming system. VERY NICE GREG! We had a celeberty apperance by Allstar who flew the corprate jet from Orlando. I think the Missouri Hyway Patrol was a bit PO'ed when Phil landed on I-55, but what the heck he didn't want to be late. Had a nice talk with Phil Pinion with Road Race Replicas, he has a new company starting to mold his Silicon tires with improved compond, and more round. Also from the RRR camp a cool new chrome 60s style blower. I have been after Phil to mold the one from his Angila for years and he came through. Shown here by itself and in a new SWC replica I am working on, this is a sweet piece. Almost all phils chrome is cast cleaned up than sent to the chromer so alot goes into each piece but you can see the resualt. Beautyfull Phil. He also has a 56 Ford Drag/stock car, and a new late 60s Slammed Nova both will be ready soon. All in all what better way to spend a Sunday...with friends, and Slot cars. I'll post the Spring show when the Date is announced, and I hope to meet more Psycho guys than.

The fun of these shows is the stuff you find in the junk boxes, I got 4 T Jet chassis with solid rivets, that spin so freely no lapping needed, hope to take a better look at them this weekend.
Also hanging out with buddys from all over....You can't buy that!
