I've had a few racers ask about the RC racing that I was doing prior to starting Slot Cars (which I am fully enjoying). Hard to really describe how fast these cars are but here is a video from a track that I have run at that is located on the property of Fontana Speedway. Track is roughly 260' x 110' and tremendous facility for us here in the USA. All of our tracks are flat surfaces either dedicated paved area's or in parking lots. If you go to Europ, the have beautiful poupous bult tracks that have grass infields. We do have one private track here in the states that I have been fortunate to have been invited to race on and should be there next year.
But here is a video from the track at Fontana, CA. You will hear lap times and top speed, I have run 15.8 but 68mph top speed, as I have the same issue with Slot Cars..... cars have speed, I need to drive it better
