After monkeying around getting the track to work. It was nice to finally start testing cars. The 4-gears were first. They are a bit strange to me.

The Boss Mustang must be an older release? I bought it used.

   

One test run showed that the newer funny-car was barely limping along. The Don Prudhomme Cuda was second slowest.

Every chassis was taken apart. Every cluster gear was loose. Some were very loose. All the cluster shafts needed peening. Grease was sitting beside the gears instead of anywhere near the teeth. The pins for the idlers were dry. The John Force funny car had one motor brush twisted completely sideways in the barrel. And I thought the T-jets were a little rough. Not compared to the 4-gears.

They all run much smoother and faster now. The Snake/Cuda and John Force Chevy funny car are ready to race with the exception of the braids. That's next. 

It's more fun to tinker when you eventually have a little success.
