That's just too darn fast to be fun. I remember back in the early to mid sixties spending hours at the local slot-car track, along with most of my modest allowance. Even then though I thought the speeds were rediculously fast (300+ scale MPH)...

 

Until I had to disassemble my own "HO Empire" invariably the first question any visitor asked was "Can't those trains go any faster?" :blush:

 

Then I would show the visitor the view from inside one of the trains cabs and they'd comment "Oh, now I can see what you've tried to explain. They are actually moving at the correct speed for the scale..." :lol:

You would need to be there to see it, The shutter speed and low FPS on the youtube video doesn't capture the cars very well...

 

Funny watching the drivers heads bob around as they watch their cars around the tracks at 1:56 in the video..

Same thinking here. I think they should focus on additional features like lights or.. smoke. :O
