#24

A two hour road trip through the warped minds of slot car enthusiasts...for example: -

1. Find out why you would want to shoot lighter fuel at your slot car using a water pistol

2. The role of flour in slot car racing

3. The role of cocoa in slot car racing

4. The role of de-ionised water in slot car racing, and why it shouldn't mix with the two previous items

5. Why it's not good to lick tyres (see above)

6. Why you should make your motors spin ('cause if you're sliding, you're slow!)

7. What are the best tyres in the world

8. Which is the best era for slot cars

9. Which country holds the biggest Slot Car Swap Meet in the world (and it's not Montana!)

We also found out who likes Alfa Romeos, and witnessed a lot of angry people who don't. 

And finally...

If you ordered some weighted guides from a bloke in Southern California, check that he glued them in properly because he was chatting a lot whilst doing it. However, he did stop to tell us about THE BEST MUSEUM IN THE WORLD FOR SLOT CAR ENTHUSIASTS.
