Slot Car Racing @ Relics & Rarities

Decatur, GA

Relics & Rarities owner Warren Pickard has "Race Car Fever" He plans to build a Slot Car Racing track to add to his shop.
As you know Warren Pickard opened his ice cream / auto museum in September, it's located just across the street for Decatur High School.
His shop has three sections to it, as you enter the front door you would think you were in the 1950's, with the black and white floor to the vintage photos all around you do think your in the 50's , the ice cream (Blue Bell) is served in a cup or a cone, you can even get a cola in a old vintage glass bottle.
The Car museum is on the left side of the ice cream shop which has cars from the past that he has collected, mixed in with all those classic cars are relics from the past,Two of my favorites are a police call box that were attached to street light poles and a 1970's paper machine box which still had a 1970's newspaper still in it, he found it while chasing a bad guy through the streets and alleys of Atlanta, Warren is an Atlanta cop.
On the right side is where kids can sit in a real race car, play with old pinball type machines from the 1950's they can even get their picture taken with giant figures of "The Simpsons".
On this side is where Warren plans to build a slot car racing track, the kind that has several slots to race. He even will have the slot cars you can buy and bring back with you to race on Saturdays. Long time Decatur residents will remember the Decatur Hobby Shop/Speedway that had slot car tracks.
Warren Pickard always has a plan to make his shop better.
This new plan may call for a camera to film a photo finish.
Warren Pickard is truly in the Winners Circle.
