Good Stuff ! I've been thinking about casting . This is just what I need to get started. Thanks for sharing !

I opened the package springs fell and i never found them!!! Great tip!!!

Mind if i ask what state you are in? Im in Victoria.

Do you have stl files

Thanks good info will try that now

53 thanx for rubbing my face in it

Cool … No pun hahaha

57 yrs.

A dab of lube would help the gear last a bit longer!

Can I play AFX cars on Scalextric track?

This is a good idea. Like you have done on your front axles, I have used sheets of styrene to make shims to use on my semi- trailers to keep them from sling shotting themselves in the turns.

Awsome idea!!! Thanks for sharing!!!!! Will help a lot!!!!

Regarding my question and your answer, you've backed up what I thought in regards to the amps, and I'm sure the OS3 Lite is capable of 22 volts for short periods so that shouldn't be an issue (it's only a drag strip after all). My hunch is it's pots going bad but I don't know what ohms they are. Any ideas? Edit: And great to hear you've got more in the pipeline. I'll keep my eye out here and on FB

My replies keep getting deleted @murdervalleyraceway

Fantastic idea... and thanks for doing this style of more educational video rather than the normal News Review style. It's not that I don't like the news ones it's just there's already enough of that style and not enough innovation and education like yours. Quick question, I have an adjustable transformer (up to 30v 10amp) running both lanes of my drag strip that I don't run over 22v and 6amp for Auto World Funny Cars only, the rest I use 6amp still but lower voltage, but I kept having issues with my OS3 Lites so I've switched to the Truspeeds like you have, will I have any issues? I do run them with brakes (because I have to for some cars).

Awesome video.Great ideas! Thanks for sharing.

I learned that years ago and now when i can tell a chassis is worn out is when that hole is broke and noore adjustments can be made i chunk chassis and save parts of course

looks amazing! keep plugging!

GOOD JOB..

Thanks for sharing, great tutorial!!!!!

Get to it man. You seem the resilient type..lol Sorry and sucks just the same. Looks fantastic dewd. Keep us posted

It looks stellar. Can imagine racing on it. Wow. Your efforts will be rewarded.

Great idea! I am in the process of build my home track and purchase my cars. I used to race back I the and of the nineties but life took me away from the hobby and now, with 44 years old I have discovered the HO slot cars and I’m looking forward to get back! I live in Brazil and my city doesn’t have public tracks anymore, so, I loved your idea! Thanks!

100% agree that the guys selling HO gear are great. I just went and had a look at those controllers online, as I'm currently having issues with one of my OS3 Lite controllers, but someone bought them all! Oh well, next shipment maybe 😁 I've also got a few of those TFX chassis' and man are they low. You wouldn't be doing any slightly larger foam tyres would you?

Very cool layout ,, i cant wait until its finished and your racing on it,, and im sure your even more anxious 😂😂

Hope you like the controllers!!!! I tried one with a 1/32 car, not my cup of tea....., but tastes are different!!!!!!!

So you put grooves in the roadway, then pressed/glued the rails into place, then painted, then sanded?

Oh it’s getting there so cool 👍👍👍🤟

Awesome it's coming along very good man I can't wait to see it when it's done thank you for the good videos

Awesome, it's coming along nicely. Looking forward to see it running. Oh and I'm afraid your wrong about the mad part. I'm pretty sure I'm right there with you! I just finished putting new rails in my 4 lane AFX track .

Looking fantastic. Great work.

Nice work MVR, looking good. Can't wait to see you race 6 wide.........Thanks for the video update.

Great job!

Just tease us some more MVR. Wish I could help.

Any adapter for slotit to afx?

Hey MVR been a while, been taking care of elderly parents for the last year constantly, so not much time still to do much. But I have bought a few cars, the dreaded Super III and 4 gear, I said I was not going to buy again....Thanks to your interest in them I gave them another shot. I found that the 2022/2023 4 gears (large funny cars for drag racing) are much better, and the S III 2023 are MUCH better than the older ones, and the bodies are smaller which I like much better, but the liveries are so, so on the stock cars. The newer S III bodies work around the track much better than the older larger bodies, they are top heavy and de-slot way too easily. I have a bit of a cheat though. I have a set of Rooster Racings IROC Super 7 chassis, and I modified S III clips to fit the S III to the S 7 chassis, and it works great at slower speeds. The older S III Nascar bodies liveries are the best I have seen out of the other choices, and they are pretty nice going around the track at slower speeds as well. Anyway, interesting to see you back at the track building. I'm not familiar with that paint, but I would use a good alkyd primer because as you know that "paper board" is going to raise the "grain" something fierce if water based is used. Ask me how I know.....:) I hope it is going well, the track looks great.

Hi. Did you say glue them in place?

Right , so here I go. I want to purchase some of your tires . I have been a racer for years. We race super 2s which have foam tires ( came with the foam tires OEM ), that is just one of our classes . I'd like to try a tjet & a tuff one style ( foam ) also . that is 3 of our classes but , we use silicone over sponge tires in other classes. It can't be that crazy ( $ ) to send 6 , 8 sponge tires in a padded envelope. I was the same guy that ( you showed the double cutter) (made the video for ) ( well me & others ), but I still want your tires to try in certain classes ( cause you can not use the sil-sponge tires in that class ) , weight ? vs. grip ? ? ? You see I have others making 3d printed wheels ( light ) , ? with light foam tires ? Maybe bets grip , ? The last race I ran 330s & 16 ohm vs several 350 sil-sponge & 5.5 ohm os3 (what?) ?? The head guy asked bout the clearance . I said I could drop more . Just always trying something. And I wanted your email cause : I WANT to PURCHASE TIRES from YOU Mr murder Valley. 6 - 8 pairs maybe more . I know you said already , you wanted to sell, you did not want to sell. Want to try to race your tires in at least 3 different classes in our " that class" (racing since '80s) (some of us)(fisherowski's) (zerns)(Penn Valley) , we been racing a long time... So...thanks... Tony.... That is why I wanted your email to see what ( sizes ) and your metric so basically afx , Magna , t jet , tfx os3, & if you make a tuff one,& if you make a 4 gear.🏁🏁 Tony ...

Think it was last spring or last year I tried contacting you and you sent me your email. But it was through on of these UA-cam comment correspondence and it took me weeks ( go back and watch ) to finally find. I never got to it and after a while its lost in the cloud ( not mention new laptop). You see I don't I won't be a bug , but have a couple of questions ??? You can't find an email address for murder Valley ( don't Facebook , never liked the notes in high school), will you send me your email again? I'll ask and I'll go play with my slot cars. I have crude internet devices ( UA-cam ) ( barely use a cell phone ), but have ,of well used put away wet , not perfect body, 2 or 3 slot cars... Thank you, , Tony... AFX old school 🏁🏁🏁

Beautiful man I wouldn't say I'm jealous but......

PAINTIN IT AAAAAAAAAAAAAP!

Love it ! Looks great! Can't wait to see the finish . Im currently finishing up my rebuild. AFX 4 lane 4' x16'

Awesome layout! Well done.

I'm gettin my airline ticket from US to AU. Nice job man. I love the roadway style on your track. I'd put a hammock next to it so if I woke up I could see it

Dude, been watching for a while! That track is crazy cool!!!!

That’s a beautiful track, dreams take time. Must have been time consuming putting in 1 continuous rail! Thanks for sharing.

Very very nice great to see it almost finally running

Well done David, great to see it running. Looking forward to having a run on it at some point in time!

WOW! Fantastic!!

Yep, those high rails spots are annoying but easily fixed! Awesome!!! Thanks for sharing!!!
