PS: did I mention that slotcars do not usually suffer from rust since most of them are kept in dry condition even if you do use them. And UK is not exactly California... eh, almost where I live though (Hampshire, southcoast UK).

oh, and do not forget that you might even be able to do just that more than once a year (buy the slotcars without winning the lottery)!
