We are a growing association heading into our sixth season of organized racing. Our goal is to promote all levels of the hobby/sport of HO scale slot car racing in Toronto and surrounding areas. With classes ranging from stock Aurora Thunder Jets to modified high tech racers OHORA has a class suitable for most HO scale racers, novice to veteran. We presently have club contacts in Sudbury, Mississauga, North Bay, Oshawa, Burlington and Windsor.

OHORA is always seeking to expand it's membership. Whether you are a racer in search of competition or a track owner wanting to host a race, OHORA offers a good starting point. Members participate in the organization, hosting, and management of the series. This challenges our members and helps to improve skills both on and off the track as well as creates opportunities to share tuning techniques and tips.

If you are interested in participating in a series as a driver, host track or sponsor let the OHORA know. Additional host tracks are always welcome, as without a venue, it is difficult to schedule a race. Race schedules are planned around personal schedules as best as possible to ensure that everyone will have equal chance to participate and share the experience. All you need to do is make your availability known, and in which manner you wish to participate (racer, host, etc).

We hope to hear from interested individuals, track owners or sponsors. If you have a new track under construction, we'd love to hear from you as well. To see some sites from groups that have participated in the past as well as those currently involved, check out the following links:
