Fun seeing other tracks, It did have some tight turns always good running your cars on different types and styles of track. Sometimes the fastest motor is not always the best and slower and better handling can be a good thing. 👍👍
It looked like a lot of fun. Thank you for shooting the video for all of us to enjoy. As much as I love NSR, I agreed with your comment about NSR. I thought I always tuned them well until I got my first ThunderSlots this year. A number of the NSR's are just a little tail happy compared the the ThunderSlot that are better balanced out of the box. Either way we are always refining and getting better tuning our cars. Well done to both you and Dusty!
@@twolinesslotcars I think part of the issue is the 'air gap' in the NSR rear wheels. I have started filling the gap to get the whole tire patch on the track.
Cheers for documenting your trip. Love seeing other tracks like the other one you did a while back (think it was Byson raceway or something) Glad you had fun and kept a lid on those race nerves.
Excellent video! Keep them coming. I'll see you at cloverleaf in November. Again, it is an excellent video to help keep slotcars going into the future!
Don't worry Marty it's about having fun. There will be plenty of people there to help you out and give advice. Remember none of us have run on the race track yet as it hasn't been finalized yet.
HAPPY SATURDAY FELLOW SLOTTERHEADS AND MARTY. That one end sure has some hips..like the track. A bit of technical to it. Yah did fine for a first time on a different track.
Great vid, thanks for sharing. Nsr cars are great, win loose or draw racing slot cars with good friends having a blast is always the real winner…. Would love to know the rules around both classes for the upcoming event, the devil is always in the details 😉 Cheers again Nick V
Hey Nick! The rules seem pretty simple.. here is the link.. www.hrwforum.com/forum/national-championship-center/nsr-eastern-championship-2024/247626-nsr-eastern-championship-2024-rules-times-and-location
Great vidio Marty. Have you tried an NSR C6 corvette? Mine are a lot more planted than my C7 or C8's. My tuneing skills are poor at best so I think the C6's are a little more naturally balanced. Love all the corvetts though!!
Great track, looks good fun. Surprised you have the squeeze hair pin in there. Does that cause a lot of crashes, have you tried it with normal R1 corner track? Want tyres re you guys using and are you running with magnets?
No magnets, silicone tires, squeeze hairpin has always been there. We had a few crashes.. it surely made you make a decision early about entry if you were close to someone.
Great vid and great track and yes Marty, we love the slot car racing action and everyone could use some more 😆 I'm really torn if should 4 lane on my carrera or not and even considered goin scaley due to smaller footprint and availability but the no 1/24 racing on scaley is a big turnoff to me and reason why sticking carrera. Is your 4 lane still digital and fully operational like a 2 lane if you desire?
Thanks Andrew! My track is full digital and analog 4 lane. Racing on Greg’s track solidified for me that we will probably have a 4 lane for a long time. Love it!
@@twolinesslotcars yeah I think I will go that way too. I’ve heard of folks going back to 2 lanes because 4 lane wasn’t the same and they weren’t using the whole track anyway but they’re usually fully digital slotters I’ve noticed where as I am wanting for the same reason as you I gather, which is being able to prepare and practice for race events and still have a digital race for fun when the mates and family wanna have some fun for different reasons 😍. Im going to copy yours or Dave’s switch box but not being that electrical savvy yet I’m not sure exactly how to make Dave’s a 4 lane and if just jump the lanes/wires for the second set of lanes. I can copy people fine from UA-cam or when shown or told but I’m still very green when it comes to the law of electricity and how it properly works. Also just wanna say it’s awesome what your doing and I remember the days when started and had a few Carrera cars and then an empty metal shelf with 3 cars on it to todays vid travelling your beautiful country and meeting rad people and sharing this awesome hobby with awesome people. I think it cool what your doing showing all different faces of the hobby kinda like track fans but in your own way, it’s really cool. My friend is opening a slot shop / club here in Perth, Western Australia and I’m so pumped and excited can finally race the cars I love and meet more people and be able to take it a step further just like yourself and I can relate as I started with my older brother just like yourself if remember correctly haha. He’s building a massive wood track, 6 lanes and nearly 50m (about 160ft) and going to sell all brands of slot cars and slot related gear 😍🥰 Sorry for the rant but I’m excited and love your channel and had to tell someone who actually likes slot cars haha and that your a rad guy for the hobby, love your honest and open approach to it and the people, we do love the racing action so yes, more can’t hurt and keep up the good work brother all the way from Perth, WA! Take care, stay safe and all the best to you and your loved ones 😎👍🏽
Hey Marty, love the content I’ve been following off and on since you started the channel. I’ve been messing with slot cars the last few years purely for fun with my sons, no racing. I’d love to learn more, potentially race, I’m definitely a newbie in a lot of areas still and the racing thing seems a little intimidating with my current knowledge base. I actually live in Lebanon and had no idea anyone had a track like that here. How do I get connected with those guys? Facebook, IG etc? I’d love to check it out and would love to find some guys to potentially take me “under their wing” so I can get more into the hobby. Any info would be much appreciated!!

Steve, I agree.. I think it is a hearing issue in the Vette for this layout..

Thanks Chris! I love them, just don’t quite have them figured out completely 😂

@@chrisfreter3629 it’s a problem
Really like the layout. Looks like a fun track. Glad you guys had some fun!
You would have enjoyed racing with this group!
@@twolinesslotcars No doubt Marty!
Super cool, Marty! Great job! Thanks for showing us another great track!
Glad you like it! It was a lot of fun!
Thanks for taking us with awesome track
Happy you enjoyed it!
Very cool track Marty, thank you for sharing it with us..
Glad you enjoyed it! Great layout!
Makes me smile that you guys never grew up and this is your hobby. Rock on boys
:) welcome to Neverland Bill!
I remember this track! Glad to see that it's still being raced on!
I am sure you do Seb! Use to be part of the slot car series.
Seb! The track is as good as it has ever been!
Cheers for documenting your trip. Love seeing other tracks like the other one you did a while back (think it was Byson raceway or something) Glad you had fun and kept a lid on those race nerves.
Good times Doug! Maybe one day we will get to do some racing together!!
@@twolinesslotcars this would be cool and no doubt paths will cross
Great layout and racing. Thanks for sharing Marty.
Race On!
Thanks Todd!
Great show and tell as always, Marty. Thanks for remembering to take stills of the cars on track.
You bet!
Very cool track Marty! Thanks for sharing that, enjoyed that very much! 🫡
Thanks Nobody! Always fun to try new layouts.
Thanks Marty nice track yes running with friends is good times that was a nice track.
Thanks Doug! Good times for sure!
Excellent video! Keep them coming. I'll see you at cloverleaf in November. Again, it is an excellent video to help keep slotcars going into the future!
I look forward to meeting up Jimmy!
Very nice track and a very relaxing atmosphere.
Jorge, it was a great time.
Thank you Marty! Looks like a gas!
Much fun Peter! Thanks for watching!
Yeah cool layout. Seemed like some good dudes and a fun time.
Yes, great time for sure Tadd!
Don't worry Marty it's about having fun. There will be plenty of people there to help you out and give advice. Remember none of us have run on the race track yet as it hasn't been finalized yet.
Thanks Mike! I think that is what I am really looking forward to, getting a chance to meet so many people and figure out the layout!
HAPPY SATURDAY FELLOW SLOTTERHEADS AND MARTY. That one end sure has some hips..like the track. A bit of technical to it. Yah did fine for a first time on a different track.
Good morning John!
G'day Marty awesome track was it fun to race on
So much fun Rhys!
Good morning brother Marty , Thanks for sharing.🙌🏎️😊🇺🇸
Good morning!
thanks Marty looks like a fun outing.
Great time Chris!
Really cool track and looked like you had fun with friends
Always have fun with these guys Eric!
@@twolinesslotcars all that matters Marty but you already know that. 🤣
Great vid, thanks for sharing. Nsr cars are great, win loose or draw racing slot cars with good friends having a blast is always the real winner….
Would love to know the rules around both classes for the upcoming event, the devil is always in the details 😉

Thanks
Thank Fred!
Looks like a great track!!!!! Thanks for taking us with you!!!!! Sounds like the wrong gear ratio?!
Yes Nico… I need to play with the gearing. The C8 stock gearing was not right for me..
Nice track- nice video! Maybe play with gearing to get more speed. Thanks Marty.
I am studying the gear ratio chart now.. lol
Great vidio Marty. Have you tried an NSR C6 corvette? Mine are a lot more planted than my C7 or C8's. My tuneing skills are poor at best so I think the C6's are a little more naturally balanced. Love all the corvetts though!!
I don’t have a C6, will have to try one. Thanks Greg! I will figure out this C8.. just needs a gearing change possibly. I have not given up yet 😂
Great track, looks good fun. Surprised you have the squeeze hair pin in there. Does that cause a lot of crashes, have you tried it with normal R1 corner track?
Want tyres re you guys using and are you running with magnets?
No magnets, silicone tires, squeeze hairpin has always been there. We had a few crashes.. it surely made you make a decision early about entry if you were close to someone.

Is your 4 lane still digital and fully operational like a 2 lane if you desire?
As in when run 4 lane digital functions the same as standard 2 lane

What kind of tire do they run on this track? Rubber, silicone or urethane?
He runs silicone. Great Classic Scalextric track
Hey neighbor. How far away is Lebanon from us anyway? An hour and one-half? Might have to check it out sometime. Royce.
Yes, it was about 90minutes from Chillicothe… mostly because the 71S exit at 35 was closed.. probably a little quicker without the detour..

Thursday nights at CincySlots is a sad great place to start. Budslots on UA-cam and IG is your goto for Lebanon..
Very nice track. Is that a purpose built shed Marty?
It was Greg’s basement!
