Wow! This brings back memories of my misspent youth! Haha. I grew up in rural Vt int he 50s/60s and remember slot cars being the rage for us 10to 14 year olds. I would hitch hike 20 or so miles if I couldn't con anyone to give men a ride to the closest large town that had a track. It was 1/24 scale at that time but I guess 1/32 became more popular later on. I wound my own motors for torque and top-end. Fun times. Jimmie Attard must be fro Detroit if he worked at Fords. I was born there in 1951 and had tons of relatives there. A lot of them "went by Fords" and had long careers. Thanks for posting> Love it!

At 55 year's old, watching this takes me back to being 10 years old playing with my cars. This made me feel exactly like I did when I was 10, not a care in the world, everything was safe, and mom and dad were in the front room watching what ever 1970's show that was on at the time while I lost myself in my world of toy cars. . I had ice cream buckets of hot-wheels ( mainly redlines ) but finally around 12 I got a slot car set and everything change in a heart beat. Life eventually got in the way as I got older and my toys of the past were just that... the past . Well a couple months back I was lucky enough to find a guy who sold me a "HUGE" amount of 60's-70's slots cars for $600.. I'm certain they're worth a few grand but money isn't what matters when it comes to my toys. Ya see I'm a seriously collector ( although an amateur ) and have about 500 70's hot-wheels, lesney, Corgi, and the rest and now I've got about 40 slots cars and parts as far as the eye can see. Sure I could use the money by selling them but it's the one thing in my life that makes me feel like the kid I once was so I will "NEVER" get rid of them. thanks for this awesome video, your track just makes me wanna build a time machine and got back to the early 70's. AWESOME TRACK TO SAY THE LEAST🏎

What a treat be invited into his home, hear from the man himself and see all of his detailing, imagination and craftsmanship first hand. And thanks for a great look at not just the man and his track but of his work stations as well. Nice touch, really loved it! I am compelled to make a comment about the video production. Although the interview is wonderfully comprehensive and petty much perfect, the music running throughout the entire length of this video is not only unnecessary but after a while became distracting and then annoying. Jimmy's comments, his descriptions of building techniques and his stories are wonderful, interesting and stand completely on their own without the need of a constant, relentlessly repetitive barrage of 16th note xylophone "hey kids, it's play time with Jimmy" music behind it. I found that I needed to take periodic breaks because of it. Although this is a fun hobby for sure the interview is one of an experienced and dedicated artist and it doesn't need anything else to make it more "interesting". That said.... Great job and many thanks for making this video, the passionate work of an artist and his living track, available to us! I loved slot cars as a kid in the 60s and began collecting cars again and building tracks as an adult during the past 20 years or so. Really appreciate it! P.S. Sorry about the production critique.

Hi Todd. We are working on a new video that will highlight the actual racing of Jimmy's cars on his track as well as its operation. Please stayed tuned!

I have an idea. Now that we are in 2022 going on 2023, and the technology is really good these days. The owner should get tons of micro cameras and place them all around the track. And on race days, do a live stream broadcast on Twitch and KZbin websites. Have someone do the controls for the live video feed while live streaming using a stream-deck to control the view of each camera to the live stream as the races happen. Put up a monitor with a digital scoreboard for winners & mini trophies for the winners. 😁👍 The owner can also put a chip in the car and hire a Python developer to write a script, as each car will be given a specific code & number. And each time they pass the finish/start line it would show up on the 40" inch screen on the wall as it also keeps score digitally, so no one can argue who cross the line first, as it would be electronically recorded.

I want to see some rating on that lovely circuit. I still don't understand how itbis done racing two cars in one slot when it is not digital..........but I live the idea!

RCPS please see the explanation half way thru this video. I use a AC train transformer and a $.07 diode to run two cars of any make in one slot independently controlled. Please see the other Lunch King videos about the track. Subscribe and pass what you like to your friends.

Great interview, but just one suggestion.. don't have the music playing all the time.. it distracts from the content... having said that, this guy is super cool, and what an outstanding layout! I model railroading... and I have never seen a slot car layout as elaborate as a model railroad layout. Pretty damn cool and thanks for sharing!

There's no way this guy is from anywhere but Michigan. If it wasn't the Lions mug, saying "Ford's" with the possessive S would be a dead giveaway. The craftsmanship on this reminds me of two other scale tracks in Michigan: the Carail train layout and Junction Valley railway.

@@kevinjokipii4260 of course Kevin. All is well. You must be a Michigander in his "golden years" to have known that only employees of FoMoCo 50 years of age and over are allowed to add that S behind Ford. Cool that you noticed. Have a great Thanksgiving my friend!

Great video. Great track. Btw, you might want to pick up another microphone for the interviewer. The volume difference between Jimmy and the interviewer is pretty big.

Robert, I'm sorry for taking so long to reply. The Shell corner is made of plaster of Paris. It's actually all hand painted believe it or not. Thanks for your nice comment, my friend. Please go back and share Ryans Lunch King videos of our track with your friends.
