Thanks, I appreciate you stopping by and checking out my video.

Thanks! I got the stools off Amazon, the are ok, they are by Big Red about 50 bucks each.

Cool, got it. SlotCarJames? Nice track! I will be helping my buddy build the same layout only in black and extended to 4x16. We will be starting the build probably in October when his new house is ready. Is it still a work in progress? I would suggest foam padding on your wood to protect your cars. Also check out my video where I added 1/4 inch foam all around the track to protect the edges. The white Sintra chips easy unfortunately just from cars crashing into the edges of the track.

I could use one of those inserts for the rail tool, very good idea. Could I buy one from you?

@@marksslotcargarage Thanks! The track is done, but I will be adding a black and white checkerboard curtain around the bottom to dress up the under side. So fur the curve side walls on the ends of the track being next to the track with no flat surfaces and the Lexan boards being against the track has so far protected it. I will be on the watch for dents and edge damage and follow your suggestion if needed. So that in one of your other videos. Thank you once again for the your commits:)

@@marksslotcargarage I'll make and send you some free. Need to know where to mail them. I noticed Viper doesn't seem to have the Lexan Borders or holders any more? I could also make you about 32 of those 1/16" border holders with screws and a Trackmate holder for under the track and trade it all with free shipping for one of your Mega G + of your choice, like Indy if possible? Either way my friend.

I don't use any of that on Mega G Plus cars. I use Silly Sponge tires on my higher end race cars like my Fusion Super Stock class cars. Mega G Plus I don't really race much, I run higher end cars more since I got my Viper track. Thanks

Yup, always happens that way...lol Thanks Kenton

It is nice!

Thanks! Unfortunately the VRP Dyno is the only one I know that works well, I was not happy with the price either but I use it so much I felt it was worth it. If you email VRP the will build you one, it may take a little while but you will get it, they are always out of stock on the web site.

Thanks much! I learn new things every time I watch your show!

@@sguarisco-zv1ig Thanks! I appreciate that.

lol, which one?

Which one...lol

No that's the speed the tires are turning. It's not really RPMs but the higher the number the faster the car. If I hit above 400 on the Dyno for a 6 ohm car that is a good number. Thanks

That sounds awesome! I grew up in West Islip, when I was a kid in the late 70's my buddy had a four lane AFX track up in his attic, we had a race club, the good old days...lol We raced mostly stock Magnatraction.

Pretty much...lol

I have in the past, unfortunately the guys I race with are not big on actual racing which bums me out...lol Getting them to run an actual race is like pulling teeth. They just like to run cars. I am always trying to find more guys to come out and do some actual racing. Thanks

@@marksslotcargarage My wife is just like your friends, not competitive built her a car or 2 also got her a super 7 as well never push the cars, the only person who is competitive is my childhood buddy and he visits me 2-3 x's a year from up north. Only thing I can do is compete against myself

​@@ray0311Yeah I know the feeling, I go through the same thing with my wife. My two daughters are actually competitive and like to race it's just hard to get them together.

@@marksslotcargarage running cars is fun, but I have always found that racing is where its at.

Tell me about it...Do you happen to live in South FL? LOL

Yeah they are not the greatest, I don't have a lot of Auto World cars, a lot of guys buy them for the body and put a different chassis under them.

@@marksslotcargarage seems like a lot of money just to get a body. I just bought a bag of bodies from AW for a lot less than one of those Pit Kits. ~side note, I will buy the pit kits for the pancake style chassis if I find one I like. Those are so much easier to put together and tune.

Thanks John! I appreciate you stopping by.

Sorry I missed the live show mark

Thanks!

Hi, thanks for stopping by.

That awesome! I will check it out for sure. Thanks!

Thanks Kenton!

I am surprised with the better tires you are having so many de-slots. You can also go with level 42 magnets for the Mega G plus, they really help with handling. As for the Super 7 I think the one Steven sells from Rooster Racing has the best overall configuration, it already comes with all the upgrades you can do to it. If you are looking for a budget S7 the base model that Terry sells on hcslots.com works well on a home AFX track. I got the yellow Pennzoil and most of my other Lexan bodies from Jay Jaap on Facebook, you can reach him via Facebook Messenger. Thanks

@@marksslotcargarage Thank You Mark. I have 52 and 42 mags and not getting a good combo on my current track config by themselves with the bodies on them. One of my fastest on stock tires with an AFX body on it long chassis is one of my slowest on the drag track if you can believe it. Of course its not me.......But it has double stacked 33 mags stock tires. The fastest is a 1.5 chassis with no body, 42 and 33 stacked with Viper pink tires. But the PINK Viper tires are faster than the white and black tires I have.....go figure? But I fear double stacking the mags will shorten the motor life. I already burned off a rear hub on my stock C8, it just fell off mid race. I am talking with Steven RR already today.

@@JDL_2020 Not sure what to make of the issue you are having with bodies on. My go to config for Mega G Plus has always been level 42 with either an HC Slots rear end setup or a Viper rear end setup. I think you will really like the Super 7, it is in a whole different class than the Mega G Plus.

@@marksslotcargarage I hopefully will find out soon enough, I jumped in feet first and ordered from Steven. I am using the stock controllers for 1 and I suck at driving them? My track goes from banked curves to flat curves/corners back to banked curves with 2 18' long straight's . I will get a couple Defalco soon now that I have made the investment in decent cars. And it will probably change my set ups, again. I was not really expecting to be chasing speed. I could go on and on like I'm sure you could with setups but I do not have all the bells and whistles many have to draw on to customize/tweak.......yet at least. I don't have a go to combo, what works in one does not work as well in others I tried, just like in real race cars. In my testing it is night and day between racing with body off, I mean by a lot. Double stacking the magnets getting the weight lower/center of gravity lower is what leads me to believe the bodies were top heavy. Hence my search for AFX G+ Lexan clips and Lexan body to test. 138' of 2 lane track 6.96 sec without a body, I can't even come close to that with a body on, let alone stay on the track. But it makes sense why all the serious racers run Lexan bodies, right? Even in real drag cars, they have very light bodies and put the weight as low as possible. Then we can't ignore the timing systems, I am using a Carrera 2 lane lap counter/timer so the times are as good as that is accurate. As for it being me, to be fair I have not had much practice the last 10 month's.

You will love the Rooster Racing Super 7 but it won't run well with a stock 120 ohm AFX controller. The 120 ohm only works with Mega G Plus cars. A Difalco with a sensitivity adjustment will help you a lot. Good luck.

Thanks! Sorry you missed the live show but I appreciate you checking out the replay.

Steve Nunemaker, you can message him on Facebook Messenger.

LOL

That makes sense, it's been interesting to see how different the tension is on each spring.

Just remove the red center wire that goes to the controller, the rest of the wiring is the same. The negative from the supply would go straight to the passenger side of the track.

The hobby can get expensive, just do what you like, it's all about having fun. You watch my channel more than enough to win my giveaway so don't worry about that. The Super 7 is a great car, you will love it.

LOL, you nailed it blue, now I have to ban you as well....lol

Thanks! I appreciate that. That's what's fun about the hobby, there are so many directions you can go with it.

Ok Mayor, you have been banned, you can't win....lol

@@marksslotcargarage Excellent!

What are you talking about? You are not banned....lol

Rich I think I’ve been banned also

@@blueovalracing1582 Huh?

@@blueovalracing1582 i`m not banned, it was a joke. Mark keeps telling Adam he is banned, cause Adam calls him the AW king. so i was just messing with Mark.

Thanks Jim! You too!

Eastern time, I will being doing the giveaway during a live show. Thanks.

Depends on your budget. A decent controller with a sensitivity setting is your best overall option as that controller will run just about any car. If you are looking for a good budget controller the Difalco DD505 or the OS3 Lite are both good options.

Thanks David, Good luck!

I am already a winner! I own 2 Super 7's!

​@@davidshacklee2817Well there is always room for a 3rd right? 😂

Thanks and good luck!

Good luck Gbud!

Good luck!

Thanks Mayor!

Yes, Eastern time, thanks.

Thanks!

Thanks!

I should exclude you from entering, you always win my giveaways...lol Good luck!

@@marksslotcargarage I don`t have a super 7 or any Rooster products. I do not really need them either, May regift if I win to someone in need.

@@RichsSlotcarRoom You know I was kidding, it's a great car, you would like it.

Sure is 👍

Yup, Eastern time. Thanks.

Thanks! Good luck!

No, the track and controllers are wires for positive polarity, I can't just reverse the supply. I guess I could turn an axle around and let the car run the opposite way.

Hi to you as well Mark
