An oldie, but goody from the Washboard archives. This was a ghost car race on a floor layout in my house in Queidersbach Germany where I lived for a couple years during an Army tour. I started this hobby over there. Anyway, i bought a super cheap spy camera shaped like a die and ran one car to get a bit of track footage. For the 14 US dollars I paid for it, I thought it did ok to lend a bit of ...

Mach 5 and Shooting star converted to Carrera Digital 1/32 (actually slightly larger) using the chassis from a Carrera D132 Camaro Pace Car, which is also slightly larger than 1/32. This can be don as an Evolution car as well. The D132 conversion will run on Carrera Digital or any analog tracks
Digital to Analog Combination Start Track

This video explains how my Carrera Digital 132 track is also capable of running Analog cars of any type on the same track. This conversion is done inexpensively , basically shutting off the digital rail voltage and diverting the incoming transformer power to the analog start track.

I spent a little time today finishing up the detailed info on the D124 Formula One Ocon BWT Alpine car. Hopefully this will answer some of the questions I got after showing off the car. Its a bit long at 13 minutes, but if you prefer you can skip the voiceover and read the details by pausing the video at each new "slide."

I recieved these two cars as a set from a friend in Germany. They were Carrera Evolution (1/32) cars from the Race Champs analog set. I installed new Ortmann rear tires, did a complete disassembly/inspection and upgrade to D132 using the 26740 Carrera D132 Decoder.
Converting Older Evo Cars for digital and analog

After converting an early Carrera Evolution car to digital using an MPL decoder, I found that the decoder doesn't support digital to analog auto switching. I figured out how to use the existing polarity switch as a selector to go from digital to analog.

    Been watching a lot of Carerra slots videos. Enjoyed this. I always thought I would really enjoy if I set of my own. I have roughly $700.00 CA to spend. Would would recommend I buy? New to modern slot sets.

      I’m a huge F1 fan. I picked up six carrera Digital 143 cars from a source in Germany. On the D132 track it will run six cars and utilize the switch tracks and the pit lane. I swapped the chip from one to an Ocon BWT Go F1. The Go cars are better with the larger tires. The older D143 F1s have ground clearance issues, but work ok. Thanks for subscribing.

      @@MostlyCarreraWithkenWash I really like the the new F1 cars, I've seen videos of the older F1's and they definitely sit a bit weird on the track. I dont have the space or budget for a big 1/32 digital layout, but ive been getting a whole lot of extra track pieces especially the different corner types and even the crossover corner pieces to make an exciting 1/43 layout (especially compared to the standard sets that are in boxes).

      The problem is the cost involved. The Mach 5 is easier to come by, but the Mattel RC car I use can run anywhere from 14.00 to 45.00 +. The pace car is 50.00, then there's lights and time. The Shooting star is much harder to find, so 50.00 + and the pace car another 50.00+, lights time etc. The two in the video I did sell. Extremely nice cars with good mods, in cases with nameplates. sold the set for 240.00 + shipping. Litterally made my money back, but it was more about getting a guy some sweet one of a kind cars. (for now, one of a kind)

    Why would they manufacture the wheels like that what's the point?

    • @MostlyCarreraWithkenWash
      @MostlyCarreraWithkenWash Рік тому

      As I understand it, the recessed areas are where the injection mould leaves the residual material. Having it in the low area would mean less precise processing, maybe saving a step of final machining. The dimples are much less of a problem with the factory tires. It's when you put on a pair of performance tires that it seems to make a big difference.

    Does the tire grip the hub any less?

    • @MostlyCarreraWithkenWash
      @MostlyCarreraWithkenWash Рік тому

      No Sir. The tire grips the same, it just doesn't touch the wheel in the center. I've done this with most of my GT cars and it has helped immensly.
