Scale MPH are so silly. So many things change when you scale down-- cross section, Mass:surface area ratio, etc. Can't we just be impress that a little car is going really fast instead of trying to hyper inflate it to scale mph? So are we reaching the speed of scale sound? I don't know if people knew this or not, but when those lil figures that come with trainsets talk, their voices actually travel at Scale Mach 1.
@tycoonpratik - the "button" is a speed control, not just an on-off switch. Also, a decent system allows for braking by shorting out the supply rails to feed the motor's back EMF back into itself. Slot racing is a lot like real driving, without having to steer.
Well done, i have read your event report, just to clarify, this record was for scalex cars only & yours was a NSR Mosler,secondly, the report says the first sensors were moved half way up the track so a scale half mile was recorded, can you confirm this
I find it so sad that grown men have to twink their cars to win all the time,what happened to STRAIGHT OUT OF THE BOX RACING.That is where true skill comes into play

If you don't build the car yourself,what's the glory in that?
Read up on the hobby,find out what works and experiment..
much more satisfying I think....

How does scalextric work? U just press 1 button and the car is on rails? Whats the skill in that?
I'd rather watch a train.
tycoonpratik 1 year ago
@tycoonpratik theres skill in how u press the button because if you go into a corner too fast the car would fly off the track

Isn't Scalextric normally 12v rather than 15v?
