I would like to try a scratch build but not interested at this point to go completely crazy w/it.
I have a plastic model 1/32 32 ford coupe that I want to hot road and was wondering if there is a ready to go (or close) adjustable chassis that I could get to mount the body on.

Chipping '34 Hot Rod style cars
I searched the forum for this topic and found a few results where it might have been discussed- but the links took me to a server not found error.
The dates on the posts were from almost a decade ago- I'm guessing maybe they didn't get carried over to the new forum.
I'm into...

What scale should the cars actually be to be correct on plastic track?
Ok, just for fun. All this talk about 1.5 v 1.7 chassis and scale got me wondering. Starting with standard AFX track, as a given, what actual scale should the cars be to correctly scaled and still work on the track? Forget what chassis and bodies are currently available. I’m talking about if someone...

Non Use
Like a lot of people when springtime rolls around slots get put on the back burner and mine is no exception. I haven't used my track in a month and I have some young nephews coming over today to run a few laps so I dusted off the track. I use this to wipe the track down sprayed with windex. This was...You do not have permission to view this gallery.

1.5" or 1.7" (Longer) chassis debate.
When a new slot car comes out from a manufacturer it never fails that a thread can go off course do to this reason or that reason which has nothing to do about the new product announcement.

Safety/Pace car questions
New to the safety/pace car idea. I have a few questions.
1) can you effectively run a safety car if only one pit lane?
2) if there is a crash on the track, do you automatically then send the safety car out? Wouldn't you have to clear the crash first so that the safety car...

Carbon Fiber
I have been experimenting with custom-fabricating lightweight chassis for 1/32nd cars. Mostly that has been by 3D printing chassis components for monocoque construction -- using the body of the car as a structural component.
But I have also tried replacing the traditional steel front...

Power taps for AFX
Hello SCI
New member here. Just recently pulled our old AFX speed lock track out with my young boys to introduce them to all the fun I had with my dad some 30 years back.
Back in the day we had a 50 piece two lane track layout that worked well for the space we had. We currently...

Slot.it SCP 2 digital controller for Carrera 1/24
I have a new SCP 2 controller with the latest digital cartridge. Reading the downloaded file for the controller on the Slot.it site, it says page 6 for setting the dip switches "for Carrera digital 1/32", and has setting for 8 switches. My cartridge has only 6 switches, and is set up and runs...Last edited by WRW13; 04-12-2021, 10:52 AM.

Question about cars and realism
Pardon my ignorance, but just getting into the digital raceway hobby. My question is, since there are so many cars available, do people "code" the car to what its real life counterpart may function like? In other words, if I have car X, is there a review or guide on how to set the fuel capacity,...
