keeping tapes

i should have posted this at the start of summer

some of the tapes go off in heat especially the double sided tape and the lightweight strapping tape.

maybe a dumb spray goo question

This is mainly to track owners. Is there a standard formula you guys use for spray goo? Sometimes track stickyness varies quite a lot, which is a bit of bummer sometimes because you may have the wrong tyres. then i got thinking because when the temperature is higher the track is more slippery. There...

Hi Roscoe, thanks for getting the rules up nice an early in wing 12 motor rules i couldn't see if you need to run oilites or you can run ball races?

Re: wing 12 rule change

Those in dis-favour will be vocal. and whether there is a silent majority .. i don't know. The new rules at Raceworld make complete sense as the track is fast, not even open cars need wait ...

OMO - Motor - Dont's

Last weekend at Raceworld

I ran 74.5 with gold dust brush in frond hoods.

Brush was finished in 6th bracket.

The tip's from the guys there were;

Use Big Foot 2's
Don't use a 74.5 they appear to burn brushes faster.

The most difficult slot car component to get right is the body. As Tim pointed out in his thread you can make 2 bodies ones fast and ones a dog. With everyone running the same chassis the same motors the winning or losing difference now is often just the body. Most of you have seen this webpage befo...
