Re: handycraft skills

I have Anki Drive... all of it, multiples of the first 4 cars even. And I will likely buy the next two cars, Skull and Nuke, when they are released. You can apex the corners in Anki Drive... but it does not feel quite right when doing it. Anki Drive follows a "hidden" line much like Mag Ra...

Re: SCR Track Concept

I needed to make the track a little bit more narrow then previous versions, so I have been redoing my track ideas. And the forum has been slow... so figured I would post this. http://www.SlotCarRental.com/Misc/MagTrackRedo_01.JPG http://www.SlotCarRental.com/Misc/MagTrackRedo_02.JPG The previous ver...

Re: SCR Track Concept

In some cases such in-curve lane changes would be to change to an outer line as well... But I also want areas were the car wont take, incase I want to have a secret area that is difficult to access for silly short cuts and stuff... http://www.slotcarrental.com/Misc/MagRacerTrackConcept_004.jpg This ...

Re: SCR Track Concept

Wes, Does it have to be 100% straight, or can there be a bit of a bow in the straight? like a really large radius curve? like 6 foot or more. I noticed one of the recent photos you posted had the split of the lanes in a curve, although I think that area of your track is meant to run in the other dir...

Re: Where to buy battery and charger

Are they non magnetic, or did the previous "bad" batteries heat up so much that they erased the magnetic strength from the magnet in the car?

Re: SCR Track Concept

If I manage to get it working as a special event and pay-to-play type of track, I will be standing in the middle doing battery changes and marshaling, while everyone else along the outside of the table races. If it is used as a "club" track, the pit lane is still in the middle, so it is re...

Re: SCR Track Concept

http://www.SlotCarRental.com/misc/MagRacerTracConcept_003.jpg Even when I am happy with something, I cannot help but redesign it... So this is a possible "larger" version. I think the cars could change lanes in a curve, it would just take a lot of fussing with it... I try to make them cha...

Re: I have a dream..............

Would be awesome to have a warehouse and build all of those sections in perfect 1:32 scale... Track would be so big, you may need to drive via in-car camera. The Laguna Cork Screw would be hard to do for Mag Racers, may need to modify the magnet arm in the cars so it drops down like off road slot ca...

Re: Racefun track 2 - Forrest Jump

Other posts that I have read on here, have mentioned wire size effecting drag on the guide magnet thus slowing cars down... Things that I intend to try to slow or stop cars into a pit lane are: Thicker wire... just in the pit lane Double deep wire, maybe multiple stacks of it... or side by side... T...
