Hi guys
Just found this forum. I was searching for articles on painting the track.
I've been racing for about 15 years, I was a late bloomer. My home track is a 1/32 scale Scalextric 4 lane (I hope that's ok that it's Scalextric), external 25 amp power supply, using a Carlson section (electric eye to count laps), hooked up to a pc, with 4 additional power taps.
I race with a group of guys from the NY/NJ/PA Metro Area, called NJMETROSLOTCARS, we're on FB, and have a website (being rerun, but the old one is still active). We've also been featured in a Slot Car mag from the UK.
Goes without saying this has been a very strange year. We normally would be racing tonight, but we haven't raced since the end of Feb 2020. We went from "race if you feel comfortable" to "the season is suspended" in two hours!
We have multiple tracks that we race on, Scalextric, Carrera, Routed, Ninco. It depends on the host.
