Просмотров 1,6 тыс.Месяц назад
Scaleauto have done a great job releasing a number of liveries of each of their slot cars so clubs have options to race many different colors of the same car. I do a build of the NSX kit in this video. Well, it's more of assembling a basic kit they make. Part number for this kit is SC-6287d NSX-GT3 Cup Version-Yellow/White/Silver Thanks to Scaleauto for sending the kit.

Slot Car News-Because it's FRIDAY!
I am going to have to go back to work to pay for this hobby. With all of the really nice accessories, buildings, cars, cars, cars, cars….
Always look forward to your videos. Thanks Dave.
Thanks for the news Dave, much appreciated! I'm having slot car overload with all the stuff coming out lol. RevoSlot also announced they have the Lister Storm coming, so that will be interesting. Cheers!
Thanks. From Oklahoma
Yay, the six new Revo Marcos cars with fantasy oil liveries have just landed here in Europe too. It's like Christmans at the height of summer.
HAPPY FRIDAY FELLOW SLOTTERHEADS AND DAVE. It's amazing tje amount of produ t that is available now days. So much product it makes one ME need to be selective. Lol for me anyway.. thanks for the news...and insight, as always. CHEERS..
I think I need to take out a home equity loan...
Can’t wait for the Mustangs
Good news Dave jeez love that sideways mustang!!
BMW awesome
Wow, that comes as a surprise! So sad! I've had a few models in the store over the last 13 years that brought me a small but regular pocket money. I hope someone will take over. I can not see any alternative service at the moment.
I have a Carrera,and I can’t all of the connecting clips to connect properly no matter how hard I try. What am I doing wrong,it pretty straight forward.
they still haven't paid me, will they pay me or not? please answer
@@fahritramadol how would I know
I have a Riggen car that needs to come back to life, so I would welcome a new motor. You have hit the nail on the head with you commentary of the demise of the hobby. I am hoping that I can bring some interest where I live. I am hoping to get kids who are not involved in anything and hopefully slot car racing will fill a void!
That digital was bad for the hobby
Spread the motor love, my way Dave. So many future wanna be builds for me. Enjoy the community talks. 🏁
Oh yes. Wife and I will be getting 2 of those scirrocos
You lost me when you said its not about winning, I am in it for the competition and strive to get the best out of the car and my driving (high speed thought).
As a 76 year old I go way back to the very early days of slot car racing. In the 60’s slot car racing was huge. Every hobby shop carried all types of cars, sets and parts. Now you have to search on line and never really know what you are buying until it arrives. I do agree that the hobby is better than ever as far as the cars and sets are concerned but where are these hobbyists. I don’t know where they are. I am on my own and that isn’t much fun. You’re spot on with your editorial. I am also in the British sports car hobby and we are all old with very few young people. Our club seems to be holding on for the moment but I am afraid in ten years there may be no one left.
Thanks for keeping us updated Dave. Also from my perspective our fantastic hobby is growing - indeed. We all should keep it fun. Have a great Sunday!
Dave, I don't buy a lot of cars but when I do I tend to buy 2 of the same car in different liverys. That way I can race evenly against each other and I have a baseline car to test various tuneup ideas and methods against. Plus it saves on postage, or at least thats what i tell SWMBO. I'd love to have one of these motors for some side by side testing. But mostly I'd just like to get something with your autograph on it!
Thanks Dave, good rant.
Dave, nice video and commentary. I agree that we need more $7.99 good quality motors. I’m finding it fun to try small low cost tweaks on cars rather entertaining and tips from the RUclipsrs out there is so helpful. Even though I have many digital cars I’m starting to get converted to analog, there’s just something appealing to the simplicity of a great quality analog cars like Revo, NSR, and others. I’m holding pretty firm to the digital world for those times I want to race a bunch of cars with my friends and family. As to why I would like a motor; I recently had my first motor go up in smoke on me so I actually need a new motor to replace one that went belly up. Thanks for all you do to promote the hobby, I look forward to your weekly videos.
Ok, I have never replaced a motor. So if I am lucky enough to get one I will attempt the motor change an a older car.
I would like to try one in one of my Custom 3D chassis
I need more motors....cause I am a Motorhead!
Those VW Scirocco's look great. I agree the Marcos is a hideous car. Of those tribute liveries in my opinion the STP is the best.
Wish somebody would do a Scirocco in 1:32
Love to test it up against the ThunderSlot motor!
We'd love to try a Cyclone. We live to test!
Excellent commentary, Dave. The slot car online community, however defined, has taken the lead on marketing, car tuning, track building, scenery, and the whole works. Let's face it...most of us probably make car buying decisions based on what you and others feature in your content.
For sure
Hi Dave, I just ordered the TA71 Renault A110 and I've love to put one of those motors in it. Thanks Dave love the news!
Hi Dave. Love the weekly updates. Would like to try the cyclone motor in one of my custom artin slot cars. Thank you
Hi Dave, I watched this back on Saturday. I definitely agree with you that things are not the same these days. I went to a swap meet in February and the average age of the people who attended I reckon was around 60 years old. I would put this down to the temporary set up tracks rather than having a dedicated space for them. I believe our hobby is niche and advancement in technology now means that children generally spend more time on their mobile phones rather than in the company of other humans so both technology and society issues exist. What great value those motors are! Who doesn’t want an $8 motor? I love the work all the slot car UTubers do and they are the true promoters of the hobby. Keep up the great work 👍🏻💕
Jenson B's FLY Porsche is a must!! Beautiful. Your correct on the editorial, a lot of people tho are far too serious and it puts others off joining the hobby. Lets just keep it fun (with serious notes lol) its an awesome hobby. Cheers for the news Dave
Have multiple sluggish cars that could updating. Love to try one of these motors to tryout! Great show Dave…
Dave, a cyclone motor be nice to have. At our race group we have box stock rules yet nobody seems to be box stock. They run motors for 24 hours, they grease up every moving bit, they trim chassis, they might even be zapping these c can motors. But some are just to freaking fast to be box stock. Even thought about hand out motors to attempt to be bix stock. Just a sad deal to be bix stock in an ENHANCED field of racers!
I’m brand new to the hobby. I have 5 cars (all 1/32). I love learning and I think it would be fun to do my first motor replace/install. So that’s my pitch 😂
Thank you for another Friday Slot Car News! I like what you said about the new Cyclone motor. I went ahead and ordered a pair from LEB to give them a try. I needed a some slot car its and bits anyways, so I added them after watching your video. Again thanks and I hope the home treatments are going well for you.
Been a long day. Just getting caught up. Hope your doing well. Seen your post on fb. I v @ home.. hope it went well.. have a great weekend, Dave. Sorry i have been slacking...Cheers
I would like to try that motor since the motor i bought for my 12 year slot it draws to much current, for the carrera track i race on at my local hobby shop.
I am building my first scratch built slot car, so this would be a GREAT addition. Great video as always, Chris.
Great show again Dave, would like to test one of the new Cyclone motor in at Tran AM car.
Yikes- $7.99 - can't beat that with a stick!
Building a monte carlo Fastback as a tribute to my old partner at work battling cancer . Would love to have one of those motors to swap out the stock one. Look forward to your weekly show .
Thanks Dave, that sounds like a perfect motor for my Jim Hall trans-am car!
Great stuff Dave, thank you for the news! I would put one of those motors to good use, as I want to start making my own chassis, and it would go great with the first gen Firebird build I want to do. Cheers!
Great stuff as usual Dave and thank you for your contribution to our hobby!
Thanks for keeping us updated. A lot of great cars are coming out. There are so many, it's hard to decide which ones to buy.
I would love to get one before that SH in Oz. Just so I can be prepared to call him out Keep up the Great work Dave
