I like that idea of having the cars you’ve owed 1:1 in slot car form!
Cheers Dave, it was great to finally meet ya over the weekend!
Thanks for the shoutout!!!!! Was great to meet you Dave, we had great fun!!!!!!
Thanks Dave, nice chat like your new cars.
Glad you had a blast! So a vw ca show diorama that's cool. Wow your dragster is epic. Very cool..
Thanks for the mention Dave, the drag car ran well. A little fettling on the gear ratio and rear track width and you'll be on the money!!! Cheers MrD
Nice score Dave. I really like that Galant. Keep that collection growing! Congrats on Running your Dragster. looks like good fun.
Nice haul from the Slot Fest! Also - the drag car turned out great!
Thanks for sharing Dave !
HI Dave.... I think only buying 4 cars is very controlled spending 🤗 I bow to your self control .I would go crazy if I made it to that show 😊 looking forward to seeing your VW show area . We have quite a few VWs in the slotcar world so it should be interesting 👍
We have such similar thought processes when justifying a slot car raid on the wallet 😂😂. Nice stuff, looking forward to seeing that van show, I might send one of the crew over in a van to check it out and be a part of the van jam '24 😉
I think you showed considerable restraint buying only four cars at a slot car show. And I’m glad to see the drag car performed well.
Nicely done on that drag car, just getting into it and already want to build one!
Thank you from Oklahoma
Great drag car!
Nice catches 🙂
I watched a few festival videos and yes you are one of the stars!🏁

I just recently obtained a VW bus , it was an odd addition to a scalextric non branded F1 set. Bought the set because of the bus and what you did to yours. I see lowering and chipping in my future. Thanks for the nudge 😁
As with you I am on a triple crown at UK Slot Car Fest. I was there again on the Sunday and ran into all the guys you mentioned and more besides. I did look out for you to say 'Hi' and the guys informed after your presence and so I am left to infer that you clearly and sensibly spotted me from a distance and ran away to hide! Yes, it was great and the warmest in every sense in meaning of my three experiences. I got my first resin Racer which, almost inevitably, is a Ferrari - the 250LM wot won Le Mans 1965. The fit and finish on it is on another level. Le Mans 1965 was a very interesting race indeed.
At one point I was sitting at the table with Daz Hall and Rob Sale as we were swapping over the mentioned Carrera internals, looked over and saw you nearby but deep in conversation with someone (possibly the guy from Scaleauto, possibly Mauricio), then I was head down concentrating on trying not to drop screws on the floor and when I looked up you had gone and I never saw you again.
@@slotr Well, we were all just inside 'Shakespeare County' and this one was clearly 'not to be' 😒 Yes, Ivan Basas (Scaleauto) informed that the new Scaleauto track will be available here in the UK through Pendle and with Carrera compatibility there will be great choice for selling sweeping 'R5' curves etc. Lots of new Porsche 🤩. Just behind and siding the red tents there was a bunch of Carrera analogue 'wall stacked' including what looked like your Camper vans? Bumped into Marco from Electic Dreams there admiring the stack and had a bit of a natter - half in Brazilian Portuguese as that's where he and my other half are from. I enjoyed his Chip Ganassi clip and Marco informed he was within a pinch of getting Mario Andretti on only he 'needed to be elsewhere' with just a half hour to go.
Good chat Dave!
Sounds like it was a blast! Hopefully we'll make it over next year!
Hopefully it won't clash with the weekend I expect to be in Warsaw !!!!
Fingers crossed @@slotr
Most certainly a collector now😂
Maybe... ish.... hmmmm
Same idea here Dave, I have built 2 that I have owned.
I need a Triumph Dolomite though they're like hen's teeth
@@slotr Kinda like chickens lips.
Your definitely a collector Dave 🤣🤣🤣🤣
enthusiast with a collection the internet said so :D
@@slotr 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Great chat Dave, and thanks for the shout out I think 🤣 Do I need to change my name to slot car bully?? 🤣🤣
Bigger boys Mrs Paterson... bigger boys made me do it
@@slotr 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
