Quakertown Farmers Market, aka QMart, is one of those old-time farmers markets/ bazaars/ flea markets that are so interesting. My 85-yr-old mom used to go to it when she was a kid (before a fire and a rebuild). Race Place is a cool hobby shop that has two slot car raceways, one for 1/24 cars and one for HOs. You can rent the 1/24 or bring your own, and for the HOs you have to bring your own. A lot of parents, though, will spend about $20 for a new HO car and come back repeatedly. Then its a couple of bucks or so for 15 mins or 30 mins of race time. Kids, and the young at heart, have a ball. And if you have a problem with your car the nice people there will help you with it.
Update 1/17/22: Great news! Race Place is now owned by the iconic radio-controlled hobby shop, RC Misfits, of Croydon, PA. It is even better than before.
