Sorry if I'm OT but a funny thing about the Saab 96 is that it had a 2 stroke engine in it in the early years. And it really sounded like this clip of crazy frog haha. [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o3oaRulKTXw"]Crazy Frog (The Original) - YouTube[/ame]

Found clips with the real engine sound. It sounds really good!

The sad part is they were pretty common but now they are few left here in Sweden.
 
I had both slot cars and trains when I was young, but being in a military family and moving a lot I do not know what ever happened to them
 
was the V4 a two stroke also?

The V4 is a four stroke V4 engine, is like a half V8 :)

Here you have some pictures on the engine:

Banker's kid...moved every 3 years..I hear ya..

I didn't get back into slots 'till '97 when i found several like minded individuals who still had their sets from the '60s..

We upgraded and formed a league.. we actually became a dealer so we could play a little less than retail and e-bag.

The track is gone but I still have my cars.. we kind of lost interest when we started racing dirt bikes..

The pics i posted where from a bud's track ..he moved from plastic to wood..
