Newbie
#1

Hi.
I am brand new to the hobby.  I retired fairly recently and have been attracted to slot cars for a few years.
I bought a Policar track set and some Scalextric cars but realised on setting it up, that it was too large for me to have it permanently set up, unless I use my attic, which will need a good clear out.
So in the mean time, I have bought a Carrera Go set (1/43) so I can have a permanent track downstairs.  I am lucky in that there is a good slot car dealer very close to me and also a racing club, who have open nights, once a month, for newbies.
My main interest is classic cars and in particular British cars from the 60s and 70s.  Minis, Jaguar, Aston Martin etc.  I am as interested in creating a vintage diorama and collecting period cars, as I am in the racing side.  Probably more so.
These are my first 2 minis.

I also have a couple of lovely E-Type Jags.
Huge amount to learn, especially on tuning my cars.

Cheers.
