I clearly remember the HO-scale Tyco Pro 427 Cobra slotcar that started it all for me back around 1970-71. It has long gone to rest somewhere, but as little as it was, it was the seed that started the passion for me. So many of us are grateful for the pioneering work done by Carroll with his dedicated and talented crew to deliver such a winning piece of automobile history.

I, too, am unable to attain an original or continuation, so I am pleased that there are tribute cars available so that the dream can remain alive and someday I might be able to participate in it.

Thanks for the incredible icon.
