Hey Vic,

You tell Joe that the next time this controller gets photographed, he's the one that's going to be wearing it. He can primp all he wants before the photo shoot, but I have to warn you...I've little sympathy for folks claiming to have a bad hair day!

If it's a way to use a controller you are looking for then I he has movement of his mouth go to your local sports shop and buy a mouth guard they are aroun 5-10 dollars cut the part where your teeth go in half an glue on half to the trigger and the other half to the handle of the controller and as long as he can keep it in his mouth while he is driving you are set hope this helped and sorry to hear about your situation

Hi Kawi,

Since you are new here at OWH Slot Car Talk - you were not around when all of this story unfolded right here on these forums. You may not have noticed the date on this thread - since it was a "sticky" thread it was still at the top of the controller forum - but this all started over 3 years ago.

I had recently "unstickied" several other threads about Joe's Track - but now I realize this thread was still sticky... but it doesn't tell the rest of the story (which was in a couple other threads).

So I found the other threads and moved them all to a new sub-forum "Joe's Track of Courage" in the "Tech Tips - Controllers" forum, so others like you can more easily find all the related threads (it wasn't easy for even ME to find them!)

Here's a link to the new sub-forum:

Of course, the whole story was summed up very nicely by Jeff Goldberg of JayGee racing, who built the controller for Joe. You can download the story in PDF format from the JayGee Racing web site here:

It's a very touching story - I hope you enjoy reading about how it unfolded here on OWH, and about how fellow slot car racers & suppliers jumped in to help a racer and his family after a tragic accident left him immobilized.
