I like the raised magnet mod. It really makes the car’s handling more predictable and natural on my NSR 911. Great tips and cool test car.
Great Interview!
I like this interviews! Thank you!
Good Story’s! Nice Interview!
NSR ❤
Voce é brasileiro?
SUPER😊
Lol pcjef fj
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Just got mine today, excited to get it set up!
@toddulery What about the rear suspension? Are you using the shock absorber springs? If yes, what hardness (soft, medium, hard, extra hard)? Thanks!
Well done guys, I know you didn’t have long with him, Would’ve love to here more about has slot car collection.
is the mosler still the fastest plastic chassied 1/32??
Wow is the best word to describe these. I wouldn't have 'fun' racing them mind as they are too expensive for that in my book. So informed, the innovative design features could perhaps be rendered for cheaper mass production with tampo printed body shells and available spare mechanical parts? As well as sublime art work there is some innovative use of magnets and other technologies which could well benefit an upper mid range of slot cars.
Jimmy, the more I watched your interview.The more I realize I'm exactly like you. I mostly collect.. I don't own any sets, and I collect 1/32 scale and HO. I'm going to have somebody build me your track or another version of your track in my perfect spot.
Really fun. I like Doug's idea of reversing the camera onto Marco and Carlos!
Hey Fast Eddie - Let’s make this happen next time we’re there 😊
Whats happened to the wing mirrors. Isnt it a rule requirement in the class .
Raced against him (again) last night. As nice and 😎 as he is fast. Only lost by about 5 laps in each of the 2 classes. 🥉
Very interesting and a very good interview, Marcos. Thank you to Doug as well.
That’s a cool idea……reverse track call!!! Marco and Carlos 🏁🔥🏁🔥
Next time we’re there we will make it happen 🎉😊
Great chat gents, really enjoyed this one
I really enjoyed this. Thank you.
Very nice video.. honestly, you are good doing this 👍
Great interview. Doug - is there any chance you could please work some of your magic for wooden flat track slot car racing?
Good chat, nice to hear a bit about Doug 💯🔥🔥🔥🔥
Great show guys, love it!!!! Loads of banter!!!!
What a phenomenal interview Marco & thank you Stuart Koford...I never knew this. I think a critically important story for us enthusiasts of slot cars...it enhances what I love for sure and I'm just a collector for now at least
I love Koford products, I purchased a group 7 wing car about 6 mos ago and there’s no tracks where I live or area. I would like info on where I can purchase a medium sized track for a small business and raceway, I’m retiring and love slot car racing all my life. ❤️🔥🏁
Where are you? I have a 166' track in great shape I'd like to sell, located in northern New England.
The only emphasis now in slot cars is speed. They aren't really models of cars , just objects that go insanely fast.No wonder its popularity is declining at commercial raceways.
Great interview. As a convert to brushless slot car motors I am really surprised by this interview. Coming from someone so innovative and having all the expertise and tooling to develop and produce brushless slot car motors - why wouldn't you just TRY IT. Stuart says they have a 300,000rpm brushless motor they sell to NASA and NASA only buys small lots - there is demand in the thousands from slot car racers. And the top level racers - like wing car racers will pay almost any price for the best. I can only believe that the issue is the need to protect intellectual property that could easily be copied. Please tell me I am wrong. There are Chinese 22Kv motors (260000rpm) that have at recent (non-wing) national events dominated strap motors.I suspect it’ll only be a matter of time until brushless motors dominate wing car racing. The Chinese motors are operating on the limit of the bearings, balance, cooling, and rotor design - all of which can be fixed. The stator, and winds are not the biggest issue - as in brushed motors, and the Chinese machine wound stators are high quality (yeah maybe they need better epoxy). They are a fraction of the cost of brush motors ($20 versus $400) and there are $27 speed controllers (we open sourced one aart.dev). So you can run a new motor every race. The slot car community is innovating its own solutions and I suspect in the same way Koford was born, small companies will grow out of this innovation. Koford would be wise to join this community and get involved...
Thanks, Marco love all your input and enthusiasm for this hobby, wow I don’t know how you survive through that interview of all do respect to that guy. He’s real dead pan , this is what can happen to some when they get too much data in their brains they almost forget how to relax and smile. They’re always trying to think to deep(a lot of engineers) ,lol oh well ,thanks for all you do buddy. Very interesting video. Can’t wait to see the next race at Electric Dreams.Race on….🏎️🏎️🏎️
Overkill won the race👍👍
What a great video,,, simply the best...😊
Marco, I just want to say how much I appreciate your videos, especially Track Call. I raced in North America on commercial tracks as a teenager in the 70s, and have recently got back into the hobby/sport here in Central Europe racing on wood club tracks. I love the nostalgia as well as all the current more technical information such as your Race Winner videos. Well done!
I know Steve. We raced together in the same club in Connecticut. SMR. We called him mean Steve but he wasn’t mean at all. He is a great guy. He could tell you all of our nick names and why we got them. Wayne dog, Mongo, PPR Pete, The Doctor, Smokeio, Barefoot Andy and others. Mine is Bubba. Hey Bubba watch this is used when your about to nerf someone. Good interview.
hi there ,just a new racer and my question is what does the magnet stick to .. just the braid on the track is that it .. thx for viewing my inquiry
Yes, when you have a braid that has the traction.
By far the best coverage I've ever seen of a slot car race. Well done!
Hi Marc,that’s a sweet set,👍😁🏎️🏎️🏎️
Hey I know that guy ! Steve is the best. A thinker and a doer . Good interview.
Another great interview and insight into SCC - The sweet sounds of those 3d/resin printers.
Marco I congratulate you on your efforts to reach across the "perceived competitor borders" for the sake of the hobby and introducing us to so many slot car influencers. 💜
Steve Swatelle! Great Man! Thanks for the interview of a great friend!
Gutted they ghosted the tabacco sponsors on these cars. It's just not the genuine thing to me.
Great interview again. Thank you.
That video is so cool. I have watched Jimmy interview with his nephew. Neat guy! Thanks for the video!
Enjoy your interview, Steve and hope the hobby keeps on growing
Much enjoyed it.
Looks like a nice shop!!👀
yeah it does look like a nice shop, apparently the owner is a bit strange 😂 but a very talented designer!
wow! 🎉
What a great interview & discussion! Love hearing about the history & the "old days."
