DIY Make your own $10 Hot Wheels Track Start Gate (step by step)

[@Leonnisshy]

Just got into the whole hotwheels community, gonna start building my own custom track. This video came in handy, thanks!

[@MUSTANGHUNTER]

Awesome man! It's fun! Welcome to the community and MHD fam

[@donalny]

if you replace the cat string with a spring, it will just pop back into place without needing to manually reset. But good job over all.

[@MUSTANGHUNTER]

Definitely gonna be working on that 👌

[@HotRodsCustomsRacing]

Wow! Awesome work!! Thank you for sharing that!

[@charlesisaac7610]

It looks pretty easy to do, can't wait to see it in action

[@SimplemanMustangDiecast]

Thx for sharing. Have a great week! 🫵👍✌️🇺🇸

[@MUSTANGHUNTER]

You too!!

[@DiecastMediaNetwork]

Clever design! I like it. Thanks for sharing.

[@MUSTANGHUNTER]

Thanks!! I might make a bunch with better quality and sell them as prototypes lol

[@MDsDRG]

Awesome design, and economical! Thanks for sharing

[@MUSTANGHUNTER]

Thanks for watching, hope it helps someone out there

[@samace22]

Awesome design and thanks for sharing congrats.👍

[@Tobys164s]

Nice work! That’s a pretty cheap and effective way to have a “fair” start on a two lane track. I’ll have to give it a try.😎

[@toejam503]

Great video. When I was a kid, my dad was stationed at EAFB. We moved into RC in 66. Used to go to Toy Hobby and race HO Cars for 10 cents a half hour. Bought my first HW at Kmart on East north St., In 1969.👍🇺🇲

[@MUSTANGHUNTER]

Dang!!!! Back when it was happening!

[@toejam503]

@@MUSTANGHUNTER do you know 'Who's Hobby' in RC?

[@MUSTANGHUNTER]

@toejam503 yup! Been there a few times

[@toejam503]

@@MUSTANGHUNTER in the early 1970s, they had a warehouse sized 1/32-1/24 scale slot car track across the street. It was awesome, too bad it's gone now. Lot of Airmen raced there.

[@MUSTANGHUNTER]

They brought one back, it's in the mall!

[@bigdaddydiecast3529]

Great video !! Looks great 👍 & works well .. cant wait to see it in action !!!

[@jessesdiecastgarage]

Okay so after seeing how easy and how great that start gate works I will be making one for my drag strip thanks brother

[@MUSTANGHUNTER]

Awesome!!!!!

[@Freedom_DieCast_Drag_Racing]

Thanks for the tips Jason on both the camera and your start gate in this video. I created a similar setup for my new track.

[@stevesurfaro]

THANK YOU!!! This helps me tremendously with my outdoor track.

[@MUSTANGHUNTER]

Awesome!!

[@pauly985]

The magnet to hold the pins is a genius idea, saves a lot of complexity found in other drop systems. I used an 8-ft length of MDF that works great.

[@MUSTANGHUNTER]

Yeah, I figured the magnet would be the easiest and even cheapest. Hobby Lobby carries them for packs of $5

[@DiecastFantasyland]

Was looking for an easy way to do this! Thanks, gonna start constructing my track soon! 😎

[@MUSTANGHUNTER]

Yes!!!

Very nice informational bro 🤘🤘👊

Looks Great to me

[@frugaldiecaster4026]

Good stuff, great video! I’m not as handy which is why I went with an automated gate on my track. Wish I’d seen this video before forking over $200 for the Play Robotics one!

[@MUSTANGHUNTER]

I have the same gate, but wish I had the drop pin style and not drop gate. Still love them tho

[@ricobobe]

that's what's up! 👊❤

Two screws at the top and 3m down the length

[@MUSTANGHUNTER]

It's the big 6 lane track. About $100 online

[@osvaldoneedfordiecasttrujillo]

Now i just need soap and water for my boats after creating my own track 😂

[@MUSTANGHUNTER]

🤣👌

[@osvaldoneedfordiecasttrujillo]

Custom signs (Caution boats sliding ahead)

[@Acrocanthosaurus]

Thumbs down for unnecessary jump cuts.

[@MUSTANGHUNTER]

I cut out the "umms" and dead space

[@Acrocanthosaurus]

@@MUSTANGHUNTER I still hate em but I can understand that. I switched to a thumbs up. My mean old sister mocked me for my ums and it probably cured me. Good luck on the channel.

[@MUSTANGHUNTER]

Thanks 🤙

It's a good video. I enjoyed it. @@MUSTANGHUNTER
