Really great video. You covered all the basics of track planning. I would call this a "must watch" for anyone contemplating a track build. Thanks.

Very nice video. Right now the one thing that I have heard that might be coming down the road sometime is computer track planning software that may be sponsored by a major track seller that will actually ask what your inventory of individual track pieces is and have you input the size of area you want to be using for the computer program. The end result will be the computer will calculate all the possible layouts for the area you have. Of course as you said in your video it would be nice to input real race tracks from around the world also for these calculations. I imagine the first major Slot Track company that does this will have a terrific surge of systems sales etc! There are programmers out there seeing the opportunity of this. Keep your fingers crossed!

Thanks for the video. I will be using Carrera track. I was looking into a modular build, one that can be moved easily. Probably in 4’x4’ or 4’x6’ sections. I still am deciding on the layout. I really like the way slotusa’s tracks flow. I don’t necessarily like overpasses but I do like elevation changes and curved sections that are supered. Obviously I am going to have to learn how to make or modify sections into ones that don’t exist from the manufacturer. I ordered some different used curves to experiment with. They were about a third of the cost of new ones.

Searched & search...cant find a single piece of ARTIN 1/32 on Ebay. Tons of 1/43.....any advice?😊

Every once in a while they show up on eBay, but not often. I’ve sometimes seen some on FB marketplace. Also, you could try the Buy/Sell forums on Home Racing World (or other sites) - ask if anyone has some they’d be willing to part with…. I’ve gotten responses there (eventually) 🙂

I'm starting down this path with my new 1:32 Carrera stuff - at this scale do you think 12 feet is enough for an exciting main straight?
@slotjournal

I think that's a fine place to start...close to what I have on my own track. If you can come out of that section with an R2 or R3 curve, it will allow you to carry more speed through the straight. Have fun!

Is the Artin track big enough to run 1/24 scale cars? Looking at the track you showed in video, it almost looks like Carrera track.

While it's hard plastic like Carrera and well-made, it's not as wide as Carrera, so probably not.
