Good advice !

You needed to put a tiny bit of oil on the rear tires for them to hook up.

excellent advice. love these videos.

Excellent video!! You always break it down so nicely and that's what will help draw and keep people in the hobby! Race on! 🫡

good knowledge and tips, could you heat the warped tracks to get them straight?

The first slot car, amt white-that is 1/25scale drag car? Is this still for sale?

Please show the cars that come with the set.

I been using my life like slot cars on the auto world set with the adjustable voltage they run like charm!

Great point with Rhythm. Rhythm AND Driver style = FUN

Love the video, love the topic. Getting ready to start a 4 lane HO track. Wanting rhythm , simplicity, and fun.

Definitely good info that is rarely discussed. Rhythm is vitally important for longevity of your interest in the hobby. Great topic and video! 🫡

As an old beginner, this is brilliant information !

Excellent video on this topic!

Hello-In your "Secrets of Slot Car Racing #20 - WIP Portable Slot Car System," you have the optimized track layout. It looks great! I was wondering if you have a track plan available. I just purchased the chicane pieces, and now I would like to gather up the remaining pieces, but I am not sure what I need. Also, could the turns at the end of the straight be configured like those of your gray portable track? Thanks!

Very cool collection of runners. Those Panteras are fire. Thanks for sharing.

I don't have have the auto world 4 gears but i love aurora 4 gear cars they drift grate.I am sure the new ones are really GOOD with the magnets Thanks for the vid

Great subject and good job. One thing I would add - Throw it away before the piece of track drives you crazy. Every once in a while a piece of a track just won't fit. Have a supply of used tracks available as replacements.

I'm always telling my wife, "When you're taking a video, look through the camera." I appreciate you and what you're helping with. I have a Thunderjet that doesn't run and I want to get it running.

The LapCounter doesn't show in my Android apps list, is it iPhone ? 😊.

They definitely are fun to race and extremely pleasing to the eye. I just did a review of my latest a.w. 4 gear acquisitions yesterday. Thank you for giving them the props they deserve 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼😊🚗🚗⚡️✨️🔥

Where did you find that variable transformer power supply?

Where did you get the grandstands?

This brings back some memories! I loved running the original T-jets back in the 1960's. Didn't have magnets or easy access to soft Silicone tires. We had the Hard rubber tires, which were garbage, and then we had some Sponge tires, which were an improvement. Wild Ones, Tuff Ones, and then AF/X. think I won more races by driving slow, and letting everyone else fly off the track. We should have ran with less Volts, but none of us knew anything about how to reduce the voltage. When Magna-traction came along, I was discovering Motorcycles and Girls, and didn't run too much more, but I kept all of my track and cars. Got back into it in the early 1990's, and stuck with it until the early 2000's, then hung up my Controllers for good. Still have all of my Cars and a ton of parts and pieces, and maybe I'll drag them out again, but at 70, for me they are better as memories. However, it was fun to watch this video, and remember working on my cars and tracks.

These Opels were Buick's Division alternatives to the Chevrolet Vega and used the same basic structural body hardware with front fenders, the roof from the front doors forward and windshield and rear fenders and wheel arches shared with the Vega.

I saw Jim Hall win in his Chaparral in about 1965 at Riverside Raceway. Loved the power and sound of his Chevy powered cars.

I also like carney display cases I have a couple of them. I like the mirrored background because the cars show better. When one is filled you are challenged to fill up another. Thanks for posting.

I got my first 4 gear for Christmas. I was pretty impressed. Runs better than the xtraction I think

Nice collection and case. I too, think I would prefer one without the mirrored background though. I think it would give me more options as to where and how to display the case itself. Thanks for sharing.

really nice collection .liked and subbed

hello! do you still have this car ? If so do you mind taking pictures of your engine because I have the same type of car (1976 2002 auto) but i have many parts missing and trying to see exactly what i need to get my car up and running....thank you!

They look great. I visited their website and was impressed with a few other of their offerings. Thanks for the resource.

Hi yes I have several of those also and yes .. when your just starting out yes all the different names can get confusing .. They do run pretty good ... even the super III's are on the fast side and run nice . Thanks for sharing I,m a tyco collector/lover ha but Auto World definitely has it's space in the hobby

Hi. Love your channel. I just resently got back into HO Slot cars. These Indy cars are extremely cool. I’m very interested in finding a few. Would be interested in the entire set if it’s available. Can you give me any info on where to find these?

4Gears auto world cars do run well, sometimes better than the Xtractions. All n all auto world cars are good. They may require some tuning and that’s ok. Have fun and keep going

Do you have any pics or product number on the timing system you are using ?

You’re absolutely right my friend. Thanks for sharing your knowledge👍

I agree those chassis do run good . AW did well on these cars

Cool 😎

looks like you found a terrific deal my friend thanks for sharing your find

I would like to get that pit garage from you if you want to sell it?

I wish those structures would get dropped! I would love to get a few of those pit garages!

Nice haul! How much do you want for the 32 Ford? I am interested in buying it if you want to sell it 😎🏎🏁

Great find. !!! I also agree with you, if you are getting back into the hobby, new is the way to go.

Sweet Deal! Stands with people and garage alone is worth it. A nice haul.

The tips you mentioned in this video are priceless.

Just getting back into the hobby after a very long layoff. I very much enjoyed seeing what was out there. I did not realize Matchbox made slot cars. Thank You

Do not use Dremel!!!

Excellent information. I'm 4 months into the hobby and am interested in collecting as well as racing and customizing and this was a real helpful video.

Saw my first tub track in the December 1966 Popular Science feature on slot car racing. Been in love with them every since. Thanks for posting!

excellent video
