What actually is yhe purpose of the dude in the middle? He doesn't seem to do anything but hold the wire, which seems pointless. Please explain
Beautiful! I'm glad you guys are keeping this tradition alive.
Des merveilles de précision des modélistes motoristes comme en F.2 A.. BELLE VIDÉO.bravo
I wish these vids were longer. So glad to see talented folk strive to make cars run really well
Thank you for posting all these videos. I wish other clubs would. I didnt know of the resurgence of tether cars and would love to get into it!
Buckminster always welcomes visitors
I just received one of these I inherited it. I was interested in talking to you and maybe taking pictures of it to find out what I actually have. Thank you for your video.
@@petestover2171 If you email your photos to us at otwmedia0@gmail.com then we will get back to you OTW
@@onthewiretethercars yes sir I will this weekend. Thank you.
Would have liked to actually see the car on the track.
186 mph, wow.
Great vid!
I'm interested in a lot of different RC stuff. But these are very interesting as well! Nice to see a lot of hand machined parts and complete cars too!👍
At 1.02, the Alfa Romeo is a Maserati! Great stuff...

I have a pile of these my grandfather left me. I would be interested in selling a few if there is any interest.
Goes array like a foul ball &.... TY for the chainlinked fence . That was beautiful , no tx. wanted or needed .
How fast
👋OTW👌
What a cheerful bunch of people enjoying a very specific interest.
Cox .049 “Shrike” - or make one with an erector set early ‘70’s .
How do you actually win or is it a case of who does the Most laps in a set time. The speed of these cars is amazing. Great designs
Fastest speed wins
Thankyou absolutely love watching the videos of these cars.
What speed was the first one doing?
Just over 100mph 2.5cc
Some fast cars there Bill.
Great day out good company and some great cars
Would have been nice to see the cars before the runs .
nice, but no kids there, only seniors.
Ретро модели гоняют, как показательные выступления?
The guy in the middle has to hop onto a stand so the wire doesn't cut his legs off. Smooth. I heard that when people hook barracuda on the beach they have to shout at the other beach goers to clear the beach for the same reason. No offence to anyone that has lost their legs, in fact I'd like to dedicate this winning first comment to all those guys. I already had a bbq and cigar earlier to celebrate being first on the: eyes on cinema UA-cam video. If you're into ufos, it's great, and has loads of good footage of genuine craft too.
I've never even heard of these before. I've seen planes racing round that are tethered though.
Oui même principe vitesse ...!!
@@Toscanto Too fast for me, I'm trying to relax, and get my gliders finished :0
So Awesome! You deserve a bigger audience!
It's like shuffle board, model cars and curling all in one hobby.
It is better than that !
What happens if a car hits the fence at full speed?
It's a niche sport.
Would have been nice to see the cars stationary.
Go to www.onthewire.co.uk for a full report of the event and plenty of stills of the cars
Молодцы .
Depends on the internal layout of the car, all cars used to run acw but now most run cw, no rule.
Is there a reason/rule some cars go clockwise and others anti clock?

That settles it, my .020 is getting turned into a prop powered Daytona Charger!
Those redfins were cooking!
Prop cars seem fun, I've got a vintage .020 that would make a great prop car.
My kit parts from Alex seem to be arriving today so I'm getting ready to work on my build. Perhaps one day I'll head across the pond to come run at the Buckminster track.
Hopefully I'll have some videos at the Seaford NY track at some point with my diesel I'm building!
I've got a Cox .020 that would be great for an air car build, was thinking of a Daytona Charger and using the wing as the mounting point and prop guard. Perhaps do a super light brass frame similar to a slot car and a body shell made with thin balsa.
Love the sound of the diesels, nice throaty deep brap.
What is this,? where is this,? I thought the man in the middle was going to lose his ankles at first, do you still need to mow that grass or is this the most elaborate way to mow ever devised?
Still needs to be kept nice and short to avoid hitting the cable, the person in the middle is a "horser" and they help keep the cable up as the engine gets to max RPM, they assist the driver who pushes the car at the start and picks the laps to be counted in each run.
@@chrisegan7537 thanks man. Fifty years old and new one on me. Forgive my flippancy.
@@jasondavis8886 Tether car building and racing is tons of fun, but at the track is serious. Those cars are heavy and going anywhere from 60-200mph!
Nicce! The number one spot for online marketing Promo-SM!!!
So, what country is this? Do we have to guess?
Uk
This is in the UK, I believe they only have 2 functional tracks as of now. The US has 3 functional tracks with a 4th currently in construction!
For all the details Of cars and events, look at the photos and reports www.onthewire.co.uk/buckmtr2.htm
Good job! Please shoot more photos of the cars and their details so i can learn about thanks!
3b is without exhausts?
