Ahhhhh.... Nostalgia!

[JAMIE-TYPERV6]

All this BMX talk had me thinking bout my favourite toys as a kid... and with Xmas coming up is anyone planning on treating themselves to some nostalgic gift?

I've been itching to buy one of these again just for the craic....

Hah... Jesus I forgot about them. My cousin had one... used to be so envious of him!

I asked for a Big Trak from Santa one year... but he some how mixed things up and gave me one of these instead...



To this day it is still one of the best gifts I ever got... it got years of endless use. I found it in my parents attic recently too. All boxed up and complete... with the rear tires chewed off each of the cars. I must find replacements in time for this Xmas!!

I had power track as well...wiped the floor with scaletric i reckon..i had over 100 feet of track at one stage...no room big enough for even for 20 feet so some serious construction used to go on ..had 3 tiers at one stage. MY favorite childhood toy by far

This was the set i started out with...add a scirroco and an audi quattro and a few other cars
