[@Drummerboy67]

Thanks for sharing, I got into 132 scale about a year and a half ago and just about to relocate my track to the basement to make it bigger. 😂 Thank you for all the ideas and encouragement and sharing ,this Hobby is great with the slot car family that’s on here. Thanks again. 👍😁🏎️🏎️🏎️

[@Gale_Force_Raceway]

Thx I appreciate that! Jane and I are working on it right now trying to repair our pit lane once and for all. Gotta let some glue dry but here's to hoping. Check out some of my SHORTS for an updated room and decor...

[@marksslotcargarage]

I had a great time during my visit to GFR, wish I could have stayed longer. Funny I was cleaning my cars I took with me and was like what is all this pink dust on my pin and the bottom of the car...lol The lane colors do come off, at least the pink or red lane did.

[@Gale_Force_Raceway]

FIRST...Thank you VERY MUCH for coming out- so appreciated by me! And as for dust...just a lil' gift for ya... Funny I have some Neon Orange plastic bits from your car that I put on top of McDonald's model, Gonna have to glue it down tho...

[@marksslotcargarage]

@@Gale_Force_Raceway Those orange flakes from my car are collectors items...lol

[@Gale_Force_Raceway]

Thx Mike, you too!

[@rickadeggahoscaleslotcars]

Awesome set up!

[@Gale_Force_Raceway]

Wow I remember your setup! I think you belonged to my old forum , SlotCarAddicts.. (long extinct tho). Just subbed and belled up sir!

[@rickadeggahoscaleslotcars]

@@Gale_Force_Raceway thanks! Scenery makes the layout better but you always need to consider line of sight for each lane and I believe that is the scenery nay sayers biggest issue

[@Gale_Force_Raceway]

@@rickadeggahoscaleslotcars And that's the biggest issue right? We're always looking for that balance of scenery without hindering anyone's line of vision, AND, just as important, making sure the cars don't take the scenery out of commission in case they fly off! LOL

[@ToJuRacing]

Sweet track! I love 4 lane tracks. Great setup you have!

[@Gale_Force_Raceway]

It's a little bigger now...but thx!

[@StingrayJohnnysSlotCarTi-ob2ot]

I use Viasue too!

[@Gale_Force_Raceway]

I messed up the default “practice” view and had to create my own.

[@markhenry6199]

Awesome video!! Awesome set up!! Just curious-I have a Summer home at the Jersey Shore Just curious-what part of New Jersey are you located?? Thanks again for sharing ho racing with your viewers!!

[@Gale_Force_Raceway]

I’m just a few minutes the big Parsippany slot car show… so a bit north. Takes me maybe a little over an hour to get to the shore I’d say.

[@almcg4425]

Thanks for the walkthrough of your awesome track. How do you get the Viasue to the TV???

[@Gale_Force_Raceway]

@@SuperLateSpotter Straight from my laptop to an HDMI cable. Works great!

[@SuperLateSpotter]

Thank you Mayor, have a great day

[@clinttalbot9093]

Great video- and your layout and room look great!- What did you use for the lane stripe colors? Marker or colored tape? thanks, ct

[@Gale_Force_Raceway]

Actually, there is a video titled how to stripe your lanes right before this one I think, take a peek!!

[@urbuddyluddy5834]

Looks great. What did you use for lane markers, tape or paint? I am currently trying to learn to solder wires to my track (without melting) on my four power taps. lol I have the same trackmate controller setup with professor motor controllers.

[@Gale_Force_Raceway]

First thanks for tuning in, second, I made a video about lane marking- it’s soooo easy- matter of fact I’m doing some more today! BUT:: kzbin.info/www/bejne/f4TLiJ9smpqrZ7c

[@Chris65018]

Did I miss it ???? what is the layout size ?

[@Gale_Force_Raceway]

@@Chris65018 well there are more modern layouts in newer videos, but currently she’s 4 foot by almost 22 feet, 73 to 77 foot running length Thx for tuning in!

[@Pattywagon2164]
