Can't wait to see the finished result. And you're right, this section on drag racing needs some livening up... :grin:

Posted: Sat Jul 20, 2013 8:21 pmI know a guy thats got a 1\24 scale track, with a forty foot straight, its plastic but my cars run on it, 175 feet per lap
Re: I'm feeling a little Gas-ey
Posted: Sun Jul 21, 2013 6:09 amA proper 1/4 mile track in 1/24 scale would be 55 feet with sufficient shutdown area say 20 feet or so with either magnetic braking or glue. Parma pink traction compound medium works well for glue shutdown. :)

Re: I'm feeling a little Gas-ey
Posted: Sun Jul 21, 2013 6:01 pmYou could always do 1/8 mile, 27.5 feet. I've ran on a few of them. You just have to gear a little different. :)
