Maximum length for 1/43 Carrera GO!!! (Analog)

[Kubota-Boy]

Hello all,

Got some Carrera GO!!! 1:43 (Analog) sets for my Grandson for Christmas and we were wondering what is the maximum length that I can extend the GO!!! track. Power supply is standard GO!!! transformer: 14.8 V, 2 x 350mA. I plan to use Power Taps every 15 ft, but how far can I push this and still get performance. Is there anything else I can do (bigger transformer??) to increase the power and still stay Analog at this time? Any hints, tips, etc would be much appreciated.

Cheers.

as long as you use jumpers you could go as big as your bank account will let you, if you want to upgrade power its hard to beat the Pyramid 26k power supply

WOW..... Thanks to Cjent and RazorJon for the quick replies.

My Grandson is really excited about slot car racing so I suspect we'll eventually move up to Digital. Will be checking out the tutorials and that Pyramid 26k power supply.

Thanks again.

Here is a link how to make easy power taps.
Every 10m should be sufficient.
