    Marty-I had seen your undetailed FB pictures but just found this thread in our forum. Looks like a fantastic place and I am extremely jealous you had time there – too bad you were not able to stay longer : (
    Question: I saw their Slot.It banner – were they running any 1/32s when you were there?
    p.s. cute dog and he obviously bonded with Jensen!

    At 4-years old in Pensacola I repaired my steering linkage on my Ford Pedal-car. Dad later converted this car to a Blue Angel with ailerons and elevators with a working "stick/yoke"; the rudder was controlled by the steering wheel. I like all motorsports - I grew up going to a NASCAR Feeder track with Sportsman and Modified classes, and was lucky to attend drag races in 1970 at Orange County Raceway. My first solder-iron was a Christmas gift at 9yo; I modified T-Jets to be AFX spec before AFX Cars were in local stores. I rebuilt a few tractor & car (SIMCA) engines plus transmissions by 15yo (I still have my ring-compressor and valve spring tool) I am a former mountain and road bike geek & perennial sound engineer.
