    Hello everyone, I'm sorry it's been so long since my last video. I just spent a couple of days doing some mods on the track. I hope to get a new video up in the near future. Thanks for all your comments. Jimbo

    Yes. I have built 1/24th and 1/32 plastic car models into slot cars. It's a lot of fun. I have not done any jalopies or circle track cars since they would not fit in on a road course like Suzuka. As an Ex-full Competition Racing Driver, I mainly focus on building or racing Vintage cars that raced on Road Circuits like I did.

    I’d love to see more video of this amazing track with a more modern camera.

    Without a doubt, one of the best tracks I have seen this year. I want to recreate it in 1/42 with 4 lanes. Thanks for posting.

    That's great scenery, not too much and not too little. Very impressive.

    A very inspirational track to get my track setup one day permanently. My wife and I have two Schnauzers so I’m familiar with you other “challenge”:)

    Sorry for the late reply folks, got locked out of my Google account! We use the "pick-up" tongs they advertise on tv (for the elderly to get stuff off tall shelves or to keep them from bending over) to get the cars in the back. I also have access so if we have enough people someone always works the back end of the track re-slotting cars.

    did you ever try model cars like amt 40s willies or 40s ford coupe or tuder I understand you can use model car kits to race jalopies as well old 50s and 60s 70s ect modelcars try it it's cool

  • @bgm-1961
    @bgm-1961 6 років тому +1

    Looks superb! But can't we watch the cars put in a few laps?
    Also, did you use just stock Carrera track? (Oh wait, you didn't mention the manufacturer, did you)? But if it was stock, how did you achieve the decreasing radius effect? (I'm trying to remember how Carrera track comes, as I'm typing this).
