A few summers ago I visited my extended family in Asia. It was a grand experience. I was surprise how modern the country is. I dare say it’s more modern than the city I lived in. Skyscrapers and malls are everywhere. They even have ice skating rinks in the mall despite not having a winter season. Also, 1:32 slot cars racing are extremely popular.

My cousins are really into slot cars racing. They spent a small fortune making their cars go really fast. They race their 1:32 slot cars almost weekly. They even bet on it. Slot cars are miniature models of real cars. The most popular size is 1:32 scale. Some however prefer to make their slot cars really fast. They install more powerful engines that can make their cars go at breakneck speeds. It is common to see cars fly from the race track because of its speed.
