Jan 11 2008Man Builds Art Slotcar Tracks, They Look Fun
Martin Markeli is an artist that builds a lot of customized slotcar tracks. Some of his tracks are pretty intricate, which explains their up to €10,000 (~$14,800) pricetag. I know I want one, but I'll probably just work on building my own for way, way cheaper. Mine is going to have Ninja Turtles and Barbie dolls standing around watching the race. I may even dress them up provocatively if I'm in the mood. Make sure to check out the extra pictures after the jump, along with the videos. But be warned -- the 3rd video is NSFW because Martin spliced pictures of naked women into it. Proving beyond a reasonable doubt that he's 10 year old.
And that the video won't last long on Youtube.
For the pictures and videos, follow me over the rainbow.

thanks to Stefan, who I wish I could be as cool as, for the tip

That last video was weak...
Blurry, horrible camera shots, very poor use of subliminal naked women, and half the damn video is the same stupid credits scrolling over and over.
The tracks he built are pretty sick, though.

I just threw away a very old slot track race set I got Christmas sometime in the early 90's. It was a sad moment, as they provided a lot of fun (until the batteries ran out...I wish they had rechargeable batteries that were affordable back then). I may get another some day.
Very nice tracks.
