Hi Dave
I love your new lab, it will be interesting to see what you will do with all that space.
In the mean time why dont you ask Scalextric to lend you a couple off slot car sets.
Chek out the internet to see what people are building, lab trackers, race control, speed traps, power supply, lighting effects, controllers, pc interface, car tuning and much much more.
And i havent mentioned the digital tracks, drive 6 cars on a 2 lane track...
And the bedst part:
its a lot of funDo it while you have the space.
I can come up with a couples of ideas if you get interested.
Chek out
