I'll race you, you go down the track, and i'll throw mine at the finish line. In pysics, force can kick gravitys ass.

@jerywilliams Sure, then you're not racing the cars, you're measuring who has the best throwing arm.

@jerywilliams Even some of the hotwheels from the 80's can be expensive like the Ford Fairmont which is going for $30 on ebay.

No redlines, i keep those safe. Just some old Fisher-Price and Tonka trucks . Maybe $1000 if you added them all up. I had almost every toy i ever got and some of my older brothers too.There was a Fisher Price castle that could be worth up to 250 dollars. Now its worth about 20 bucks. I had some Hot Wheels from the late 70's early 80's that were up on shelves and they got their paws on some of them and chipped up the paint before i caught them. At least all mine in blister packs are still safe.

@jerywilliams The damage could have been in the thousands of dollars if the toys they broke were hotwheels redlines from the late 60's.

@firebloxice1 Yeah, I had toys from when i was a baby. They were over 30 years old, but still in mint condition. Then my nephews played with them for a few days and broke and destroyed about half of them.

@jerywilliams I treat them as glass too. I have them on a shelf and clean them every 2 weeks and they still look like i got them 5 minutes ago, except the AMC javelin. It had an awesome Candy paint job finish and it still has a little of them.

I got freaked out when i knew my 4 years old cousin came to stay for 5 weeks. i was like "OH SHIT,HE IS GONNA BREAK MY DIECAST CARS"

But he almost breaks my wii...

I have the V8 vega,is it inusual now?

[jerywilliams]

@lesneyvshotwheels I'm just messing with you. I used to treat my HotWheels like glass, i got mad at anyone that chipped the paint or played to rough with them. My cars even as a kid looked like brand new. I am 39 years old and still have most of them.
