I hear ya, as a matter of fact i told my nephew to check out some boxes of old stuff i have at my mom's house, i am pretty sure i have at least twice the lenght of this track and at least 10-12 other cars, talk about bringing back the memories, i got that old track back in 1981 i think

Yup, did that all over the track on this set which is actually only a couple years old and still found a dead piece of track, can't imagine what the old track is going to look like if i find it

I used to have over 700ft of tyco track. Right now I'm down to a nice 4 lane tomy track and two different 1/32 scale digital tracks. I still have a ton of cars in 1/64 and 1/32. I just need a space to set them up!

X2, we sell those sets and I didn't realize they were that big! I guess they should be for the price though

Thats a nice setup I have a small collection of Tyco and I have a 1/32 set. Our layout was 22ft long and 10ft at the ends and 5ft in the center. Great times but after a year we got bored with it. Its just sitting in the basement in a box waiting for me to ebay it or something.
