Little Engine. Big Speed. Leah Mitchener The spectator sport of racing has been around since before the ancient Greeks and Romans. Crowds of thousands have gathered for over two millennia to watch as speedsters whiz by on the track, cheering them on with fervor. Not much has changed over the years except for the technology. From horse-drawn chariots to high-octane engines, the passion remains. 8 • October 2017
Children have long-imitated the excitement of the track using toys like slot cars since they first hit the market in 1912 in Lionel model train kits. Specially-designed model cars could be placed on a track that carried an electric current, and a small hand-held controller would give kids the power of ‘driving’ the vehicles around the track. Having its boom in popularity in the late 1960s and early 1970s, slot car racing has held onto its biggest enthusiasts and made a local resurgence since the opening of Charlie’s Garage, LLC in the fall of 2016. Evolved from his interest in drag racing as a child, slot car racing has become a new business venture for Garage owner Charlie Murray. Charlie’s is chock-full of different types of tracks, parts, and accessories that any slot car lover would covet. Charlie will even give you some pointers on what makes a racer look authentic! He has examples from his personal collection on-hand which features racers from his childhood and a few professional builds. Several racing tracks are available for a spin including a 1:24 scale drag strip, road course, and a tri-oval. Rental cars Hometown Rankin • 9
