Although I didn't have any HO trains, I liked that the Aurora track offered a R/R Crossing piece. My friend across the street where I grew up had a neat Layout with both Slot Cars and HO Trains (weren't allowed to touch it, his Dads orders but I so wanted to play with it). Did those other brands offer this too?

Its been so long since I held one of these Slot Cars in my hand I can't remember the exact scale. Although my hands were much smaller then, when looking at HO scale vehicles on display at the Hobby Shop, the HO ones seem smaller.
That Matchbox Motorway seems like a good idea at the time especially for those who had extensive collections of the Matchbox cars. Watching a couple other videos by this same YouTube I can see what you say about it being loud. On another note, you can load them up bumper to bumper for heavy traffic without crashing into each other. But really, this set must have been inexpensive because in 1969 you might as well just got an HO Tyco, AFX etc...set.
Hers a question I don't know the answer to...
Besides Pickup Trucks were there any other trucks made for the HO Slot car sets like Tankers, Box Trucks or maybe even Tractor Trailers?
