Thanks for the good information on the pancake Motors people really don't want to put in the time to make a run good I enjoy it tinkering with them getting them gone I would like to see a video on how you make your sponge tires keep up the good work
The tyres are custom made by me. The white spacers in the front axle I've cut from white styrene tubing. The wider wheels I make have alloy tube I've cut down and fitted as outer rims. To make the alloy tuning fit, the original Autoworld plastic wheels need to be reduced in size to 6mm, you'll need something with a very accurate chuck to do this so the wheels are centred to the axle hole. I seriously recommend using collet chucks, but an electric drill should have a good enough chuck for the job, my Micro Lathe does not have a chuck that is accurate enough for this job. The easiest method is to fit rims that already exist. The easiest rear rims to buy that are new from Jag Hobbies. Look at the reproduction rear rims for G+Plus that Jag make. They'd be the second widest rear rim you can buy (I don't think the front rims will fit, I think the axle hole is too large, but I haven't tried).
Another terrific video, my friend, on how to turn a turd into a eye popper. Well, you have definitely convinced me auto world xtraction and 4 gear from previous videos, are worth putting a few bucks into in order to make them zip around the track like a bottle rocket. Thanks for the information my friend. Also, what size screw do you install in the rear cluster gear another question those little plastic boxes you keep your HO cars did you get those on Amazon? And what size are they? Thanks.
The plastic boxes are 30 x 40 x 82mm. Search model car display box. EBay have them, but I found Aliexpress to be a lot cheaper. I've bought hundreds of them now. For the rivet screws, I bought M1.6 x 8mm socket head screws. They're too long, and you'll need to cut the excess off.
Thanks for another great and informative video!!!!! Keep them coming!!!!!!!!!

Yes, another great video! Can you recommend an online source for those great wheel/tire bits?
I really like the results.
