Any Opinions on AMT Slot Car Kits?

keep in mind that if you use these gears (parma) The axle bushings will have to be replaced with bronze, and that requires soldering. Any crown with the shoulder on the back side will not allow the pinion to mesh with the supplied axle bushings. because of the narrow area between the axle uprights.
these generic gears are a close repop of the COX, and don`t have the shoulder on the back side.

Thanks guys! These are great options.

My horrific midget racer from last year served to prove to me that I suck at soldering, so I think I'll give those generic gears a whirl.

Are y'all putting any weight in the cars to help with traction or keeping the front end down?

Looks to be a pretty sweet looking collection of 1/24 scale cars coming together there!

Put a Parma guide on it and a different crown and they work just fine. And you can take out the aluminum motor mount and put any motor in it which has top and bottom holes for screws, like a Fox motor. The ability to put many, many different kits on the chassis is super.

Jeremy,

Thank you so very much. That is what is so great about the residents on this site. People like Jeremy and the rest of the gang take the time and effort to do you favors.

I'm patient at this time. I've got projects lined up and I've got to get them done.

Take your time. Just let me know what I owe you.
