Keep it up Marty. But, I feel I see you more often in other peoples live streams. Maybe have them reciprocate the favor and have them on your live stream and cross pollinate on your channel too. You add so much to the conversation during these improv live chats and have a great host voice. You also do not stray too far off topic and shepherd the guests back on point. Just a thought.

Marty- Keep plugging away! With summer around the corner- most people including myself- kind of stray away from in door activities- like slot cars! So don't think it is you as much as its the time of the year, and people want to be more outside....Hang in there- no worries buddy!

GT 40s look amazing with lights. As for the slowdown, slot cars have traditionally been moved to the back burner when the weather starts to heat up during the warmer months. This has been especially true for commercial raceways over the years.

My vote is LMP. Gt40 is too tight of a space to in my opinion. Don’t worry about viewing numbers. They come and go and I think it’s not about content quality or viewing trends. It’s as if google’s secret algorithm decides where the video gets placed in the organic search. Just keep doing what you are doing and it will continue to grow.

The Zscaler lights are great Marty. I have some yellow ones - 4x front and 2x red rear - for a pair of Scratch build Ford GT40 MKII cars and so, and for no other reason in particular, I would start with one of these. When it comes to your ratings then, sadly, 'Google' is not our friend. Personally, I have more time for you than there are hours in the day and what with a half dozen or so other Slot Car KZitemrs to follow then don't think that Google doesn't know this. Their business and their algorithms correspond as focused in selling 'my' time to their advertisers just as efficiently as possible and so when I search 'Marty Ford' here in the UK I am presented with a page full of hulking tattooed wrestlers against tags such as 'BRUTAL TV' but key to this is that this content is getting 500k - 1M+ views and so, and whilst this is not right, it is not fair, and it is not ok then I think you may better appreciate just what it is you are up against. Truth is that teenagers goofing around around their parents' pools in LA is where the money is at with platforms like KZitem and with this I once again and sincerely thank you and the others for what it is you do.

The hobby definitely slows down this time of year. When talking to distributors or shops they all say the same thing the winter months have to be strong in order to cover for the fall off in the summer months. The weather is definitely an impact for the live streams for me personally. Not sure if it would move the needle but maybe later start time if you are seeing slower attendance. I know family things outside are impacting my ability to attend. Overall content is still relevant to the hobby and entertaining in my opinion. I would guess it will rebound if you stay the course.
