Hey guys, WELCOME to our NEW channel and FIRST video! We built a scale 1/4 mile Hot Wheels drag race track! We are showing you how you can make a fun race track on a budget. We had a lot of fun making this video and we hope you enjoy it! If you like the video please LIKE and SUBSCRIBE so we can know to make more content! THANKS FOR WATCHING!

brother.. i'm 50 yrs old.. that "way up" you said.. i felt it.. nice video..
Dear diecast racing fans.... I must say this was pretty cool. My equation is different. Since Hot Wheels make different lengths of vehicles, I came up with this.... The average length of a vehicle bumper to bumper is 16 FT. 1,320 ft to a quarter mile divided by 16 ft, equals 82.5 cars. I lined up that many vehicles bumper to bumper. Then I tape measured that out, it equated/equivalent to 22 1/2 ft of track. 🏁😎👍🏻
Just started hotwheels and wanted to do my own custom track, your video came in handy thanks!
we had sets just like that in 68. add a couple of loop the loops. old timer suggestion stack encyclopedias or phone books or something like that. stuff you kids dont use anymore. under the middle of the ramp to take the bump out of the starting gate.
Nice job!!!
Thanks for the info 👍.
We're always on the lookout for new ideas to build layouts 'on-the-cheap'.
Love the creativity in your presentation, too!!!
I think if you notch out about an inch out of the centers of the bottoms of each track piece, you'd have a smooth surface across the bottom of both lanes through the center to tape the tracks together so the tape isnt bulky and cause unevenness along the 'quarter mile' 👍
Thanks Big Guy . I learned something from you .bless you
Thank you so much for this! I've been gathering cars and track but had no start finish gate... This gives me options!! Yea!
i love the swimming goggles in the science part of the video 😂
Getting ready to build mine soon, thanks 😊
Nice. Im working on one from a Frankenstein of parts. After much searching and also getting sent wrong kits ill have a nice setup with a launcher that launches both at the same time as well as a finish that pops the loser off the track. The problem I was having was the finish flag that you are using would show the wrong winner if the race was close. Good luck!
Pleaee post a link I would like to see it
One of my favorite diy track videos
Cool, nice job. 👍💯
Try a bag of rice at the finish line. It'll save your cars... Have fun y,all.
Thanks for the simple math on the track length.
Lovely music to go with this video :)
Great Track for the price! Well done video! I was pulling for the Charger.
I like that root beer chevelle car
1st off,, Thanx,I really like this, I'm terrible at math and couldn't quite understand which format to use to make get the answers?
2nd, I once introduced betting on Diecast vehicles to a group of my friends. We tried to get out together at the same times as each driver, We'd usually agree on a number of vehicles for each person's team, and leave them in their packages until Race day?
Usually around $5 (+ tax) for 5x Diecast vehicles, chosen in one 5-pack of Hot Wheels or Matchbox, with multi-packs of Maisto, Zuru, etc; OR 5x singles packs?
Then pitch another $5 per team into a pot and the Winner takes all (except the other team's diecasts)!!! It allows for the fairest competition imo.
Thanx for sharing.
Use Google to look up a scale converter. That will give you the answers.
The length you need for a ¼ mile at 1/64 scale is 20 feet 7½ inches.
1320÷64=20•625
to convert 0•625 feet to inches, multiply by 12.
0•625×12=7•5
Awesome video! I suggest hot glue gun for the finish line. They are $4-5 in Walmart Craft section. My question is: Is there a tab so that you can add a track section behind the start gate?
I recommend checking out our other video on our channel! We used this setup to race off our roof! It was a success!
Bro I just found your channel and you don’t upload anymore:(
We are planning to do it again soon! Subscribe and hit the bell so you will be notified for our next video!
@@livefastdiecast6546 yesssirrrr
@@livefastdiecast6546 what happened lol?
Chevelles always come out on top!
Thank you! It’s a great idea!
Cool. Just subbed. Hello from Winnipeg.
Nice! Thanks for the tips
A new fan
Miss you.guys
Great track set up man
You can buy the 2 foot Hot Wheels track at Dollar Tree. It looks better than the 1 foot track.
Cool
I could not find this on Amazon could someone post a link?
My first race video coming soon...
First race:
Nicholas in root beer
Brandon in corvette grand
grand sport
Exciting...
Good idea for making it longer. I got the same set here I bought last year. Just now getting to it LOL. I see on other channels that flag at the finish line tends to go towards the side where the flag is facing because of the plastic weight mostly. Any issues with yours?
We didn’t have issues with that in this video, however on our roof drag race track video the cars were going so fast that it wouldn’t really hit the tab properly so it didn’t fall on the correct side.
@@livefastdiecast6546 cool thank you for the reply back 😀
Thank you for doing the math to demonstrate the conversion. I am an 8th grade science teacher and have been teaching that concept along with the speed formula for over 20 years now. I reinforce the class work with a Hot Wheels lab using a two lane 20 foot track also. Back in 2004 Hot Wheels put out a roll of 50ft track that was only sold at Kmart. I cut that in half for the two lanes so no connectors or seams. My track set up is 3ft up off the ground at the starting gate, 10ft downhill, then 10ft flat on the ground to the finish line. Students really have fun with this speed lab and don’t realize they are learning at the same time! Thanks for showing an economical way to race. BTW, Dollar Tree now sells a two pack of 2ft track with two connectors.😊
@Alex Gonzalez Hi Alex 👋 ☺️ and no problem. Actually I got a video of the dollar tree hot wheel track you mentioned 😆. It is great hearing from you and you sound like a super cool teacher 😎
Nice
