Racing and Collecting Slot Cars by Robert Schleicher

A new book about slot car racing

The slot car racing and collecting hobby is increasing in popularity lately. To get started beginners can find all the information on the Internet. The Internet is not sufficient enough; a hardcopy of information is needed. Unfortunately there are not many books about slot car racing. Most books contain information about a certain brand or kind of slot car. Finally you are able to read a book about slot car racing in general.

More than 200 photos, many in color

This paperback counts 128 pages, more than 200 photos, many in color and covers 1/32 and HO-scale cars and tracks. The book includes basics of slot cars and their parts, controllers and comparisons of the major brands and much more. The author provides all the information you need to enjoy model car racing.

How to organize races

You will learn how to organize races, how to design a track (use your Ping-Pong table), how to recreate you favorite cars and how to add realistic scenery to your home-track. In the book you will find two photos of the Le Monzaco track, built by Jason Boye. This most amazing raceway in existence is a real inspiration for all home-track builders. Racing and Collecting Slot Cars is a library must for all slot car enthusiasts.
