Slot car home brew magnetic down force measurement tool

Hey, Simon! It’s Wade. Thanks for the pointers you gave me yesterday.
This is a neat setup. Once I get more into racing, I’m gonna wind up make one of these.

Awesome. Once you get a car dialed in at the shop this makes it a lot easier to get the remaining cars ready

For more even racing, remove the magnets from the cars and add lead weight to the chassis's of the cars to keep them stable on the tracks.

I agree that is a good way to go. But I still need this as my local track uses them so I made this so I would have some idea where I am at for my shop cars. For the home track I am experimenting with a bit of everything and it helps to know where things are at and how things change.
