Even thinking about a digital HO set makes me thing of things like making a slot car track something like one of those 'realistic' model train layouts.

Slot cars aren't like static models.and still, there are 1/43 statics that have the same kind of detail as 1/24 or even 1/12 statics.

After all, the smaller the scale, the more track feet you can put in the same space. Yeah, I'm digging the current generation of 1/32 cars.I almost drool over some of the selections in the hobby shop.but I'm wondering if a renewed interest in HO would result in the same kind of attention to detail in HO that the manufacturers have done for 1/32. (Oscar was the 1970 SCCA ASR National Champion in a McLaren) That might actually be a place to start an article on HO, whether it ends up in GRM or CM. Hang on a sec.'Auto World?' Oscar Kovaleski's Auto World? I went to the link, saw the logo, but still wonder how on earth this happened. However, with HO, it seems you have a few choices: There's some HO stuff out there, but the detail/availability doesn't really compare to the 1/32 cars. Our track is gone, but I still have all of the cars at home. Glad you liked the article, and we also had a huge AFX set.
