It comes with a Taysta.

Ok, but is it Hot Wheels or Matchbox? I'm confused.

 

[Reggie_Essent]

I had a yellow 63 split-window corvette matchbox. It was my prized possesion back then.

 

[Reggie_Essent]

It'd be worth a few ducats now.

 

[Larry Loungelizard]

Party on, Reggie.

That was before Hot Wheels™ came out.

 

[jack]

Like this?

 

[Reggie_Essent]

The Hot Wheels came out when I was 8 or 9 and you could get them for 50¢ at the store.

Exactly like that, jack.

Remember Micro-Machines?

 

[jack]

I can see it Larry

 

[jack]

That's a nice model car Reggie

 

[Reggie_Essent]

I can see it too. Larry lives behind the Cheddar Curtain.

 

[Reggie_Essent]

Micro Machines were big when my son was little.

 

[Larry Loungelizard]

Ok, now I see it. Nice color.

Remember the Red Sox player Frank Malzone?

I remember slot car places. Those were cool.

I do not get the Ligma Package comment.

 

[The Prowler]

I do get the Arctic White comment. That is the colour of my C8 Corvette.

 

[jack]

they were. Some guys were really skilled at it. Could make the car drift and it was a blast to watch. Plus they had pinball machines. This was way before video games.

 

[jack]

I was a total pinball addict growing up.

@Reggie_Essent Why does @Seamajor call you Match Box Boy?

 

[The Prowler]

I can make my C8 Corvettte drift easily...when I take off the traction control. Even with the ultra sticky fat rear tires (are they 305s?), I just have to give it a shot of gas with the steering wheel turned and I can get a drift going....

 

[The Prowler]

It was easier in my Z28 for me just because I was so used to it...I am getting better in my Arctic White C8 Corvette, though.
