If Jimmy Attard needs to feel young again, he heads downstairs to the
basement of his Dearborn home. It’s his fountain of youth, his trip back
in time.

“Down here, I don’t realize I’m in my late 60s. It’s no different than
when I was a kid although today my track is on a much bigger scale, and
I can afford it.”

Attard has one of the largest and most detailed slot car racing tracks
in the country and it has been a labor of love building and detailing it
for over 30 years, much of which he’d do when he wasn’t working as a
chassis designer for Ford Motor Co., which he retired from in 2005. -----
“I’m almost embarrassed, it’s almost an addiction you know? But I love
it. I love every one of them. If one was missing, I’d know it,” he said.

Hmm. I was pretty seriously into slot cars 1962 to 65, then
gradually moved over more into full size racing in 1969 and
on. If I had gotten back into the scale cars after I
retired in 2001, I could have quite the collection.
But as it is, I've got the pictures and trophies from
full size. Choices, choices. Take one road or the other.
