Hi Madcapromanian. First thank you for all your hard work & videos. 👍 Helps us Newbies out. Quick ? I plan on building a 4ft wide by 13ft long table to put an oval track using 2/30 High Banks at each end & 8 straights each side. I need your honest opinion. Will the 1/32 cars Keep flying off the track using the 2/30 banks? Thanks! Rich from Ohio

2/30 high banks seem to be the general starting point. Seems the 1/60's are the ones that only a few Carrera cars can handle. - Thanx for supporting the channel!

I just picked up about 5 meters of that rubber guardrail plus about 50 of the supports the other day. They were in the bargain bin at my local hobby store. New-old stock apparently. Jackpot!

The rubber rails are the best. the clips are great in that you can clip them onto the 1/4 and 1/3 rails as well as the lane change tracks (Tight tollerances on those) However, they are not as strong and the rubber rail tends to curl on the ends. +es and -eses.! :D

I wonder if anyone ever thought to maybe put some walls up on the outside of the track so maybe the cars don't get totally destroyed every time they race..

We did think about it, but then we couldn't catch the cars and put them back on the track. - also, there was no place to hang them. - this video is from 2016, many moons ago!

@@googleuser6201 That didn't stop the league. What killed it was the Covid restrictions and the fact that we couldn't meet as a group to race. Also, through those times, one of my customers/racers passed away. He had some other health problems going on. - My other drivers moved on with their lives from 2016 -now like the young guys racing here. One moved out of country, others moved to college and the work world. Time just moved on.

Is there anywhere on the planet that you can get the Carrera NASCAR Series Cars still? Always regret not buying them all when they were available!!!🏁😔💔🏁

Carrera still makes the Ford Tornino, but the others you'll have to try Ebay or slot car stores with older stock on hand.

@@DrDixonBhD No problem. Carrera didn't renew it's Chrysler / Petty licencing, and that's a major reason why the NASCAR series isn't really "A Thing" currently. Kind of hard to do a NASCAR League running 1957 Chevies and 1970 Fords and no other cars. I would actually like to do 1/25th scale NASCAR using Carrera parts and AMT model kit bodies. that would open up the league from cars of the 1950's to today...maybe even earlier stuff...but our guys here are "Off The Shelf" types.

@@monsterhobbiesonlinestore that would be great, I had a friend back in the day that had the AMT 1962 Ford Galaxie Slot Car Set. It was the first time I'd ever seen 1/25th Scale lot Cars! I had the "Route 66" Corvette 1/32nd Scale by Ideal Toy Co. It really would be kool to race 1/25th Scale, but I wonder if those hard plastic bodies can withstand hits on the floor? A lip around the table would help a lot! Love your videos!

It's reality. A lot of these guys you see here in the video raced these cars back in the 1960's when they were the age group you mention. Now they are reliving their second childhood. I also have young racers as well, so there is a good social mix here on a Wednesday night and everyone learns from one another and has fun. What type of hobbies do you do for fun?
