If anyone wants exact dimensions, I have just made another video, which also has links to a diagram I made. Hopefully that will help :) ruclips.net/video/o4zxBpuB0Qg/видео.html
thx GOD i just want to play some of my beloved toys as a kid and was never had it and as young adult, looking for real track to buy is prety expensive now i can use my money to buy some good or decent 4wd and use my tons of cardboard :D:D:D
Hi, thank you so much for posting this video. I have a couple of questions, 1, How do you make the turns? Did you had to figure out the angle? 2. How long is your track? I'm trying to build one right now but i'm not sure how long I want the track to be. I use an xacto knife to cut. I use a metal ruler and press the edge of the knife against the ruler, it worked out great for me so far.
The turns are actually easy. I figured out how wide the full half circle of a complete turn is and found the center point. Then I measured from the center point where I wanted my walls, drawing many dots to show where the arc goes, then connected the dots, cut out the shape and then taped and glued on the walls. Does that make sense? I'm not sure if I explained that well enough.
I'd guess the cars would go through the turns a bit slower because the cardboard would probably have more friction than the real plastic tracks. Sorry I didn't reply for 4 months, but I never got a notification of this message!
It's neither. You could use either of those I guess, but this is a cheap brown duct tape clone. Not quite as good as real duct tape, but better than some of the other options. I think packing tape would make too slippery a surface.
My straight section is 162cm. I made a video about all the dimensions, which has a diagram if you want more info. ruclips.net/video/o4zxBpuB0Qg/видео.html

This is great, I'll try this out once I have the time.
Send me a picture when you've done it! I'd love to see what you make! :)
Well in fact your first video inspired me to make my own two track circuit back then.
I'd love to see how it turned out!
Youre a awesome parent!
Thanks. We don't get to use if very often though because it takes so much space to set up.
Thanks♥️
Tracks today are expensive here in Philippines 😁
You're welcome! They're not cheap here either really. A 3 lane set is ridiculously expensive!
Love the sound effect at the end!!!!
I meant to put it at the end of all the Sparkuus Team Racing videos, but I often forget
Sparkuus ahhh that's correct I do remember that now!!!
If only I was able to get any of these mini 4wd
There should be somewhere you can get some.

@@Sparkuus yep, I got it thank you very much!
Awesome job!
Thanks! Do your boys want some Tamiya cars? Youy can make a track with them. It'll be fun! :)
Does the cardboard affects the performance of the mini 4wd compare to the official mini 4wd track?
I'd guess the cars would go through the turns a bit slower because the cardboard would probably have more friction than the real plastic tracks. Sorry I didn't reply for 4 months, but I never got a notification of this message!
@@Sparkuus that's fine.
Is that packing tape or masking tape you used?
It's neither. You could use either of those I guess, but this is a cheap brown duct tape clone. Not quite as good as real duct tape, but better than some of the other options. I think packing tape would make too slippery a surface.
I’m doin mine tonight I have my first section done I can use some help on the change over lanes
Did you make the changeover OK? Sorry I didn't reply for 4 months, but I never got a notification of this message!
Sparkuus naw I haven’t really had the time to work on it
Would love to see how a curve is made but i assume just keeping the same measurement though the curve.
I could do a bit of a video I guess. Not much to it really.
What is the measurement of the straight track 3 lanes per pieces
My straight section is 162cm. I made a video about all the dimensions, which has a diagram if you want more info. ruclips.net/video/o4zxBpuB0Qg/видео.html
greetings from Mexico. Can you give me the total measurements of the length and width please
OK, I guess I'll break out the track and a tape measure.
Your request has been fulfilled :)
ruclips.net/video/o4zxBpuB0Qg/видео.html
11.5 cm okay... thank you
You're welcome! I'd love to see what you make!
I make one thanks to this I put 2 lane
Cool! I'd love to see a picture or video of it!
Can you make a ramp 😉
Do you mean as a jump, a bridge or a banked curve?
I would like to see both!
