Stories are what create a desire to own a car. The struggle behind the builder, the motivation to keep going. It’s a reminder to us all that anything that we desire is going to take work.
Lamborghini: The Man Behind The Legend is one of those movies. From building tractors to wanting to build the greatest sports car in the world. Thank you to Ferrari for pissing this guy off over a clutch. If you haven’t seen the movie make sure to check it out.
Can you imagine starting a company building tractors and generations later there are slot cars based on the car you created? What a dream, it’s unbelievable.
Carrera toys are my Lamborghini slot cars of choice. The details of these little beauties are unbelievable. Since they are highly scaled they can be a little heavy. You aren’t going to be racing these at your local track.
Slot cars have gone up in price over the years. There are cars that were going for $40 now costing nearly $80. Not sure if the prices will go back down or not. I’m excited to see how it turns out. This is partly due to cars being limited editions.
