1/24th Scale Raceway Park Slot Car Track

Here is a video of what I do in the offseason from real racing. It's slot car racing 1/24th scale. The track is based off of Raceway Park. We race Late Model cars from the 60's and 70's and also "Outlaw" Late Model cars. This is a video from an Outlaw feature race when we ran under the lights for the first time in 2007

dont you find it plain to jsut old down the remote and watch all of the mgo at the same speed or is this the tpye where you have to point your remote to the car for it to move?

[raceway24]

These are open comp cars. Different motors, gears etc. and we add weight to them. You can't just hold the controller down and go. If you hold it down all the way your off the track in the first corner. We even have break knobs on the controllers so we can control the coast of the cars when we let off the gas.

Those cars need V8 sound chips, then they wouldn't sound like mice in blenders.

Hey, what's with all the swearing.  Is that natural?
