      I keep saying that the Winston-Salem Chamber of Commerce is missing an opportunity to promote themselves as a 1:32 slot car hobbyists’ retirement wonderland. Sure, we’ve got affordable housing, cutting edge healthcare, a fine symphony, arts and multiple universities. But where can you find this many tracks and a weekly racing program in one area?

        You're welcome to come visit anytime Sherm. It was a pleasure to meet you last year and a joy to see some of your truly outstanding creations first-hand.

        BTW, we have a big event coming up next weekend. Several of our good friends are driving up from Atlanta arriving on Friday afternoon, the 28th. We'll be racing until they depart sometime on Sunday afternoon, the 30th. Come join us! Short notice, I know. But we can provide loaners for you if you don't have cars built to spec.

        I have had the pleasure of racing with some of the SCANC members when they would visit the tracks of North Atlanta. SCANC is a great group of slot racers and fun to visit with. And obviously they have a great track rotation to enjoy in their North Carolina area. Great tracks!

                    Hi Team SCANC
                    Interesting group with some excellent racers whose names I recognize. What a happy circumstance to have that many great looking tracks close together. I've subscribed to your forum and perhaps I could come race with you sometime? I've proxy-raced some of your outstanding cars so I'd love to meet you and pick your brains for tips! 😁

                        Yeah, it would be awesome if you could come visit. I'm sure there's something you could teach us too. You've been running at the front of the pack in several proxies lately.

                          Whats your racing schedule and rules? I'd be especially interested in any enduro or feature race.

                            Sherman,

                            We're currently racing on Monday nights, usually from about 7 pm until 9 pm. Doors open a few hours earlier for guys who can get there and test and tune their cars.

                            We don't normally host enduro events. Almost always we do 3 minute heats. We normally have 6 - 8 guys racing on any given night.

                            Once a year the guys from Atlanta come up and race with us for a weekend - test and tune on Friday evening, racing all day Saturday and racing a half day on Sunday. And once a year we make the trip down to Atlanta to race on their tracks. We haven't done that in a while because of Covid.

                            Here's a copy of our current regs:
