Sorry for the delay in updates. Just returned yesterday from trip to Florida to hopefully get a few things taking care of for my 88 year old mother. Not good down there!
Plan to pull up the HO track this week and get the scalextric Sport track down. I will also be installing wood sections cut and planed to size to give wider shoulders down the entire length. Trackmate DP3000 timing system will also be used as it worked great on the HO size. Lots of work to do plus a few other surprises.

Okay gang I`ve been working with ALAN down in NORTH DALLAS trying to get things set up so we can have a meet down on his track,so here`s where we`re at,on his HO track if we use a guide pin like the ARTINS have we`re in business ,and ready to crank up for another meet on the schedule,so if ya just stop and think....why do you havta have a slide guide,you`re not doing any turns,so just use a ARTIN PIN GUIDE! then we can proceed on with getting things set up for 2014!,its easier to change the cars than it is to change the track! :lol: and he`s got a helluva nice track!

I have no problem with guide pins, it was just a question.

How wide is that slot that a pin will work and a blade won't? I'm not about to hack up any of my cars to replace the guide with a pin.
