One day many years ago, someone got the idea that it might be fun to “race” these model cars down a track similar to the “Pinewood Derby” that the Boy and Girl Scouts use. The Hubley Derby is a gravity race using the die cast 1/20 scale metal models made by Hubley, Gabriel, and Scale Model.

In this episode of Old Car Chronicles we drive to the Hubley races in one of my vintage cars, when we get there we weigh in our Hubley cars at the registration desk and wait with anticipation for the races to start. Join me as I race two model Hubley cars for the first time ever!! Spoiler alert, I didn't win
