Model Railroad & Slot Car HO Racing Layout: Cars racing: Datsun 240Z Auto World Xtraction Ultra G vs Cadillac Ambulance 1959 Auto World Four Gear. New season including new acquisitions. These two vehicles are from Deluxe Pit Kits that were painted and assembled.
HO Scale Trains in video: Milwaukee Road GP30 GP9 and SD9 (Lifelike Proto 2000) and freight cars. Despite these kits had to be painted and assembled, the slot cars worked well with no glitches noted so far and were fun to run around the track, they stayed on the track very well going quite fast in speed on the straightaway tracks. The Datsun was faster usually but was no match for any contact with the Cadillac 4 Gear that bumped the Datsun off several times and since Cadillac kept going that was a win. "Pit maneuvers" on the squeeze track were deliberate). The cars had nice range of speeds on the Parma controllers, so they could be slow through the curves and also sprint on straightaways. The occasional times car wheels lose contact with the road is when they get bumped by the other car, or swerve on a curve or go too fast. Video is not at all in order or continuous, the one camera on tripod was moved around various viewing angles during the race and the clips were edited and intermingled. Slot Car Track layout has been engineered to keeps cars rolling. Track sections have jumper soldered wiring. Also feed wires go to several of these jumper wires. The self-paint jobs are not all that great, but they were successfully assembled and did actually work well.
