Video: Audi's custom slot car track
Mon, 21 Jan 2013
Slot Mods of Clinton Township, Mich. is in the business of building hyper-realistic, hand-crafted 1:32 scale slot car tracks. Leno is getting one, Bobby Rahal has one, and now Audi has one. Called the Audi Quattro Experience, the 20-foot by seven-foot raceway allows participants to pilot miniature Audis around a miniature landscape.
In the video above, the brand of the four rings and Supplemental Films gives us a look behind the scenes of the Slot Mods build process. The custom-made tracks start at $50,000, but given the man-hours that go into each one, the price seems fair enough.
