Just subbed, didnt realize I haddent. You were one of my original channels to watch when I started in the hobby. Must of been on my other account. Either way, I ordered mags from your suggestions. Thanks for that.
Thank you for another helpful video … on you Carrera rims have you ever tried the trick of filling in the divots in the rim with superglue, and then sanding it down to help quiet the Car on the track as it runs ??
I havnt tried that actually. but to be honest, with the time involved trying to fill those divots and all that... id probably rather just buy some NSR wheels and replace them haha. My cars seem quiet enough, so it hasnt been something ive thought much about.
@@slotrods6430 I under stand I’ve been want to change some of my rims all so but the tracks I’ve recently started racing at don’t allow you to change the rims only the tires. Is there anyway I can get the file so I can print some of those decals on my printer I’m not any good at arranging them to print. I’ve wasted a ton of paper which I’d rather have them on the photo paper anyway that until I can get a file that would work correctly.
Hi there, I would definetly not wipe the oil all over the axxle like you did. Only pooring a little drop into the bearings, because if you have the oil all over the axxle, you will collect the dust and hairs onto it, running on your track. It will stick on the axxles. Just wipe the axxles dry and that`s it. They are cleaned, if you turn the axxle up and downwards and the bearings slide both together up and down easily without breaking on some point of the axxle. Those axxles won`t corrode, if you clean them from time to time, so it makes no sense oilling them. If the front tires are driven in, I would seal them with see-thru or black nailpoöish. They both don`t need to be grinded, if they run concentric. The rear-wheels should be polished with at least 400 grain sandpaper, after grinding them, down, but better is a higher value of the grain. The rubber you grind off is easily sucked away with a small vacuum cleaner, that way it won`t fly around at your place, if you blow it off. Just a few tips here and keep it n the slot, Mate.
NIce improvements with the tunig. I am going to have to put together a spreadsheet on my cars as well, great idea

I'd like to see a detailed episode on your track layout, especially the incline and decline of your elevated section. Keep up the awesome content.
i will see if I can do that for you. though it might be a while. im away for another month or so

You are, correct. I tend to slide them just to make sure to make sure I have a good coating of oil along the full contact surface of the bushing
