    Thank you Jimmy! I love all the extra context to your selection of cars! The new cars are absolutely ridiculous! I love that your track is technical and actually has some history like the old tracks on rods and customs and older stuff I have been trying to read and watch as I immerse myself. Thanks for sharing! Built or bought, your collection is awesome!

    Just love the collection and admire the work. I was always a Jim Hall Fan and the Chaparrals !!!!! Also loved the Mustangs and Cheeta's

    Wonderful! Not surprised that we like many of the same cars. I grew up around SCCA racing in the 60's. These have to be still my favorites along with the old TransAm cars. Thanks for sharing your collection. Yes, I fondle mine too, because I love the detail work on them.

    I'd have the second case, Porsche, Ferrari, Alfa, Lola anyday. I have 3 or 4 of those (maybe other manufacturers I don't know) but yeah... they're my kinda race cars ❤

    I love watching your videos. I’d love to see more info on how you created your tire barriers, the tents with the cars underneath (like the Ferrari tents), and the scissor lift you have (that I think has a camera crew)

    Great collection Jim, I was hoping there would be a video on your cars. Classic stock cars are my favorite, I have about 100 of them.

    One of, if not the best home built tracks in the nation.

    The one thing I miss about HO scale, the detail just can’t be as good as 1/32. Although AFX is trying with their newer series.
    Just a tremendous collection! Love the 60s NASCAR and the 60s TransAm series.

    Great content and inspiration. Does Jimmy have a suggestion for a cheap replacement guide (a deeper guide) for Scalextric cars on wood tracks. They want $6 to $7 at the places I shop. Thanks. Dave

    • @jimmyattard1446
      @jimmyattard1446 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Dave that's a good question. The older Scaly shoes are quite short. With the shoe on the car I warm the shoe by holding it near a light bulb. Then I quickly put the shoe between the jaws of my vice and crush the front third of the blade to extend it about 3/32". It has made a big difference and costs nothing! Thank you for following Lunch King. Please forward our work to your friends and family!

    Nice collection needs some Aussie muscle cars toranas and falcons

      Steve I love how you guys are such great car guys! My problem is that outside of Adolide F1 races I have never been exposed to the great club racing in your country. I do see that some beautiful Aussie raced cars are being modeled today. Thank you for following Lunch King. Please forward our work to your friends and family!

    Beautiful collection Jimmy
    Very impressive
    Now if we could put a mini-cam in any one of those and send it nice and slow 3 times around the track (each direction) *:-)*

    Is it possible to wire HO scale cars for A2C?

      @jimmyattard1446 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Yes Kellison GT! Thanks Meghan. It wouldn't come to me. I blame Gus for that brain fart because he was rushing me. Did you notice just before that I called the white Corvette Gran Sport a "Camero Gran Sport". It sucks getting old my friend.

  • @calvincooley1074
    @calvincooley1074 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I'm curious as to if his cars have weight on them and does he use silicone slicks?
    No NSR or Sideways?

    • @jimmyattard1446
      @jimmyattard1446 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hello Calvin, I don't collect any of the cars made by those two manufacturers because the are lower and wider than the true car. They are the builders that I referred to in the video as sacrificing scale for speed. Thanks for your comments my friend!

  • @bmac1205

    I bet the "pandemic" really sucked around here. LOL (I bet Jimmy LOVED BEING FORCED TO STAY HOME)
    That's the goal for me.....complete happiness at home.

      You are so right Sabado. My wife has heart trouble and I care for my 94 year old mom here in my house. So, I could no chance leaving my home and bringing in Covid for many months. I worked on my track 5 to 7 hours a day, seven days a week and loved every minute of it. Thanks for your kind words my friend. Thank you for following Lunch King.
