While we love spreading the joy of slot car racing to people that have never done it before, we really love repeat racers.  This year we were invited back by O’Reilley Media to OSCON, which was again held in our hometown of Austin, Texas.  This international gathering of programming professionals was 4 days of learning…

Races2U has been asked to build or consult on many interesting slot car projects over the years, but it is a rare opportunity when we get to act as a consultant and others do almost all the work.  One of our most recent projects is an amazing piece of work, created by SISU Devices for Cisco, in collaboration…

Again this year it was an honor and pleasure for Races2U to be a part of the BMW NAC in Las Vegas.  Our wonderful sponsor Resolut Marketing again hosted us in their booth, and we really enjoy working with this great team of people.  With offices in the US and Sweden, this company provides digital marketing…

We recently received a consignment of many great, lightly used Carrera items, most of which still have the original boxes and manuals.  It’s a great opportunity to expand your track or car collection at less than retail prices.  Some of these cars have become collectible, and won’t last long on our shelves.  Come check out…

Races2U was recently hired to set up a couple of slot car tracks at Flexera Software’s annual sales meeting in Schaumburg, Illinois, a large suburb of Chicago.  At first we were a little nervous, as a Texas based company, most of our personnel don’t have much experience with the harsh winters of the Great Lakes.…
