Hi guys a bunch of people at SCI have been tossing around the idea of setting up a slot car database that would contain information on RTRs, parts, motors, etc. Measurements, maybe links to reviews, all the odds and sods that are recorded about these toys we play with but get lost in the ephemera. I was wondering if this is just more idle chatter or whether this maybe something of value.

The idea is that I would set it up on my new slot car site. I have a database and PHP all set up plus I do these types of databases for a living. I would make it available for a select group of contributors to maintain. The information would then be available via reports and search screens for all. I could also make it available to other sites in some manner to be determined.

Any interest or should I forget the whole thing?

Interestingly, I know that the retail folk always get hit with questions like: Will these tires fit on my...??

It may be much to ask, but a cross reference of what parts fit on what might be great. I know that Scaley does not allow other manufacturers to use the Scaley name as a tire they replace, so perhaps an independant source such as this could give their "opinions" on the matter.
