URBANA -- What started as a hobby has grown to one of the largest distributors of slot car racing gear in the world. You can find it in Our Town Urbana.

It's called the Hot Slots Car Shop. It has one of the largest selections of tracks, cars and accessories you'll find anywhere.

You don't have to be a slot car enthusiast to enjoy it. Everyone is welcome at Club Night on Thursdays. That's when car lovers compete against each other and get their hands on the latest products.
